      Positive experience

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Network Rail (Derby, England) in Jun 2016

      Interview

      I applied end of may and was interviewed early June. The interview mostly consisted of competency and motivational questions. The interviewers were both friendly and most of the interview felt more like an informal chat.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bristol, England
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Network Rail (Bristol, England)

      Interview

      A long interview process with not much communication between stages which consist of the usual psychometric tests and situational judgement tests, online automated interview and a final interview. The psychometric tests use an inhouse app. A little tip, keep trying even if you fail some of the tests as that comes out positive towards your application.
