    Hi Philip,

    While you’re training, the main focus is on helping you get confident and ready to pass — the training’s designed to give you everything you need to succeed. You’ll get loads of support and hands-on experience before you’re out driving on your own.

    Overtime isn’t available during training, just so you can focus on learning. Once you’ve passed and you’re driving solo, overtime opportunities can pop up depending on your depot and what’s needed at the time.

I am currently doing my PVC training and have my test on the 19th May. Once I pass (hopefully) I am after doing either part time driving or ad-hoc bus driving work. Is this something you offer?

It says "Held a driving licence for 6 months". Does this mean simply having a licence for 6 months or driving experience of 6 months?
