The best advice I can give you is to read through the last 100 or so pages as mentioned above. You ll read everyones experiences of their interviews and some commonly asked questions etc. good luck :cool:

I would suggest listing all of them...the list wont come into effect until you are being stationed in Phase2 and one or more of them could've moved by then so for your own sake, list everyone as they ask and you can't go far wrong

I assume you already have, but just in case, the stage 2 preparation material on the publicjobs website is also worth a look over. Go into current campaigns - garda - preparation material.
Good luck on tuesday.

Best of luck to Celtic and all the rest of the 2007 batch people!! Unfortunately, Im one of the ones still waiting for that letter/call. Feck it, I've got a great summer liined up now either way.

Best of luck to all the people who only applied this year as well, Id say the application was a bit of a whirlwind process for you.

Enjoy the college guys!
