Successful applicants will spend part of the first year at Network Rail’s Training Centre; applicants will be allocated a local depot. This is where applicants will be based for the remainder of the first year and the second and third years of the scheme. On applying, Network Rail will consider the vacancies at depots within 60 minutes travel time from the applicant’s current home address. If applicants wish to be considered for a different geographical area, there will be this option. They have a number of career paths available the initial recruitment process will identify suitable candidates with the right motivation and skills for the Apprenticeship Scheme.
