Exploring
careers in rail
with LNER
Three days. 25 young people. A real look inside the railway.
Here is what the day looked like
Introduction to LNER
An overview of LNER and the world of rail.
Dispatch & safety
Learning how trains are managed and kept safe
Behind the scenes
Go behind the scenes to explore areas not normally accessible to passengers, experience a first-class lunch, and meet the back-office managers who play a vital role in the day-to-day operations.
Interview preparations
Developed interview skills by practicing the STAR method and participating in a real LNER interview task, “build the perfect host”
This has opened my eyes to the careers within the rail industry.
More than a work place visit
Young people built skills that last far beyond the day
Communication
Punctuality
Teamwork
Responsibilty
Problem Solving
Calm under Pressure
