Hello! Has anyone heard back after an assessment centre yet?
Not heard back from AC yet :/ said 2-4 weeks wait. So will ring them by end of next week if they haven't rang me.

What was the latest date for the AC? I'm pretty sure it's been a month now since they told me I passed the VI and I have not heard anything since...
I'm not sure about the last date for AC
Hi all, I have my AC coming up this week and was wondering what the group task and interview involves, could anybody who has done their AC share their experiences?
Should I return my employment history capture form via email or just bring a printed copy with me on the day of AC?
Two printed copies on day

Where do you find the employment capture form? My AC is on 2/3 but cannot locate it

5 minutes after being invited to the assessment center I got an email confirming my slot, even though I hadn't clicked on the one I wanted yet. It allocated me to the one I didn't want, and now I have a problem with my flights. Has anyone been successful in contacting Network Rail? I can't seem to get through to them

Unfortunately I’ve not had a reply from them, ever. What scheme have you applied for? I was auto assigned an AC before I even had chance to see what dates were available. When’s is your AC?

I've applied for Project Management, will have the AC on the 3rd of March. I was on the page to select the AC when I got the email that my slot was confirmed, very odd

How many others times/dates were available?

I have exactly the same problem, mine is on the 2/3/19 which is a Saturday. Do you think they will be doing any more AC's?

I can't access the AC options anymore, so even if they did add dates, I don't think it would be possible to switch unless you were able to get hold of them. But unfortunately contacting them seems impossible

Haven't even got a reply back yet from when I emailed them asking them when I can expect a reply telling me I've passed/not passed through to the AC.

They said AC's run in January and February so I feel like I haven't made it through, will just have to wait

Only email I've had is that I've passed the initial screening for the VI.
Got that email on the 8th of Feb and heard nothing yet.
Slightly worried because I'm abroad for two weeks in March.

I'm in the same position here, but I got that email in January!
They told me they will invite people to AC's in January and February and I am still yet to hear anything...

I just got an email that Network Rail will reimburse my hotel costs since the assessment center starts at 8am. The email doesn't mention travel costs, but I've read on here that they will pay for up to £100 travel costs. Does anyone know if this £100 is in total for both hotel and travel costs, if the travel cost reimbursement has completely been stopped or if they pay for the hotel in addition to £100 travel costs?

I called them and they said that they're still booking AC dates.
Fingers crossed
