An Update Regarding My Job Application In The Rail Industry

In entries past I expressed my interest in working in the rail industry. Something I didn't mention (I haven't got a clue why) is that I applied online for a position as conductor at V/Line a couple of weeks ago.

 

Yesterday I got an e-mail saying my application was accepted! :biggrin: THAT made my day!

 

Today, for the next part of my application process, I had to do an aptitude test, which was divided into a verbal test, a numeric test and an error checking test. I had to answer a series of questions in a VERY small time limit! Aside from a tiny, almost negligible hiccup in the numeric test, I think I did very well. :) Sadly, I don't get to find out how I went for over a month. :(

 

Stay tuned for more updates!

I always wanted to work on trains as a kid. Although my interests have since changed, it still sounds like that could be a really fun career path. What exactly would your duties entail?

 

Best of luck! :)

The role of conductor is a customer service role. I check train tickets and answer customer questions. I'm not sure, but I think I also sell tickets.

 

On longer trains, I would also work in the buffet selling food.
