Initially applied in December, the application form was pretty bog standard
In January I undertook a work preferences test, was tasked with picking one statement out of four that described me the best. This test was very different to most of the SHL tests I have done before, it was pretty easy but there weren't any obvious answers.
didn't hear anything until march when I was invited to an assessment centre with two days notice.

Question 1
Come up with a solution to a problem network rail faces, how viable is it?
The interview consisted of safety related questions and behavioural questions asking for examples of where I have demonstrated the Network Rail behaviours. They send out guidance on how to structure you answers with the interview invite, it was really helpful to use this.
