"My experience with larger trucks is limited, but I am confident I could learn quickly. I have a clean driving record and am very responsible. I have a lot of experience driving vans, however."

This question applies to interviewees interested in being drivers or posties. As they detail on their careers page, you'll be required to possess "a full UK manual driving licence with no more than 6 penalty points." And regarding posties, "Deliveries are split into walks. Most are done with two people sharing a van." Discuss your skill level and comfort level with driving the vehicles of their fleet respectfully and safely.

In the past, have driven a long-wheelbase leisure vehicle regularly for around 2 years. I also recently owned a twin-axel fire truck that was being converted into a camper van, I drove this vehicle sporadically for a year. I have also rented large vans to move a person from one home to another several times.
