Kelly's have lost the fvr contract with openreach. Union have got involved and held openreach to an old agreement re the use of contract Labour.

As in Fault Volume Reduction? That's always been done in house anyway. Contractors don't work on faults.

No, I know guys that have just been trained up on Kelly's for it. The ltb states they are looking to remove the 150 Kelly's engineers from the asap. Check out the openreach forum.

What Openreach forum? I don't know what ltb is.

Ltb is letter to branches. Basically News or a directive from union head office. If your in the union you can view them on their website. Or if your in a well run branch they should forward them onto you.
The website is openreach engineer forum.net

Do you mean go online and apply for a job with BT? If so, yes it can't hurt to apply. I think the experience of a lot of these guys would help them get in to the company proper.

Same here, did some examples and the practice beforehand (which was far easier)

Anyone have any idea what the full application process is ?
As i have heard some people go straight to interview others have a phone interview.
Also do you have to attend an assessment center?

So far i have, applied with cv and cl and taken 2 online tests.
