Yeah I sent them back last week and they just contacted me to confirm a few things but that was it, nothing about the starting etc. I think ill probably do the same if i dont hear from them regarding the suit!! They told me that some of it might be in Naas alright but wasn't sure if it was all the training. Maybe someone else on here knows.

I was talking to HR just there and they said they just have to go through everyones forms and details and then theyre going to send everyone an email on Monday/Tuesday with details of training etc. Yeah I was told training will be in Naas in my interview too but i dont know how long we'll be there for.

Hi Laura,

I was told it would be about seven weeks in
Naas, but who knows what might happen. HR also told me today that we will hear early next week about the starting details so I think we can all relax and enjoy the weekend

well here I am again. I applied to aib for the branch banking through cpl a few weeks ago. passed the aptitude and got the interview but didnt get the job. last week i got a call from careers register (same as cpl) about the customer service position in swords. have to do the aptitude test again on the 11th of june and i'm dreading this whole process, cant believe im putting myself through this all over again but it will be worth it if i get a good job finally. aib are so slow about getting through applicants. since the last time i applied i actually did get a job but i absolutely hate it and id love to get this.

oh and to anyone still wondering i was told shift work is either 9-4 or 12-9. anyone who got the offer or already started hear any different?

also is the aptitude test in wesley hall, leeson place and is it the morrisby test.

Hi Bear, I have aptitude test on 11th as well, I went through the whole process before too so I am really hoping I get something this time out off it. Its mad they have to put us through it again, that they cant use the results from the last time.

so i'm not the only crazy one lol. have you heard any details about it? times or location? i'm having a hard time getting the day off work for it (obviously i cant tell them the real reason i need the day off) so it would be handy if i could do a late/early shift? it seems like this time round theyre getting back to people a lot quicker so hopefully it wont be a torturous as last time :cool:

It was last week when I was talking to agency so she said she wont have time or place until nearer the date but I suppose they want to be giving us details soon. I wonder is the apitude test the same as last time? Hope they move fast as well, hate the not knowing part.

kind of in a similar situation was told july 2nd by the recruiter, then AIB called me last monday to ask if I could start at the beginning of august instead... had already handed in notice at my current job so wanted to get started asap

still havn't received contract or any forms, it all seems very vague might contact AIB hr next week to try and get some firm details

Hi all

I am doing the aptitude test Monday at 2pm in Ballsbridge. Anyone else doing this? Im not even sure what the job is for because I have applied for so many. All the email says is graduate aptitude test....

smadcu

Hi, I did an interview last week for a grad position in Bankcentre. Still waiting to hear back. Just wondering if if anyone out there did interviews at that time and if they've heard back yet? Or how long did it take everyone else to hear back? Getting quite nervous and less hopefull as time goes on.
