    Really wish that this medical would come this week. On night shift and having too much time to think lol. Think a bit more information about the job would be good too but suppose for security reasons they cant be telling everyone before they are accepted.

    Nothing to report this week so far missyk1 :(
    Just still waiting on my medical letter which I was told should be coming soon so until I get that I can't really do much :(

    I take it still no word for you since your medical?
    By the way did they tell you there and then that you passed or did they just not say anything?

    Give you a fair good indication as to how you did - from memory he discussed that I was fit for role with no problems

    I've had no notification of a medical as yet - getting very annoyed now!

    Well for anyone out there who was placed number 300+ on the merit list...alittle hope...

    I got a reply back today about my merit placing (360-370) - I asked when or if I would receive any further correspondance...I received the following...

    "We are currently processing the top 300 candidates...not sure when we will be moving further down the list but estimated within the next few weeks...thanks for your patience"

    ....not much but its something :o

    Well done you - now sit back and join the queue with the rest of us - expect to get very bored and restless waiting - 67j


  • Registered Users Posts: 251 ✭✭1967J


    Bit of news - just checked on my CTC and it says - completed - now part of me goes big yeah!!!!!!!!!!! but a little part goes oh fu@# - is this possibly the end of the road - not that there is anything in my background that could cause this but you know where I am coming from - to pre empt the questions I submitted on the 9th July and had a fairly easy history as I have only one address as do most of my immediate family.

    Bring on that letter or phone call - PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    PS had to double and treble check the CTC page to be sure

    See this is so frustrating because I submitted mine back at the end of June and mine is still saying 'in progress' - obviously it has nothing to do with when it was submitted! They must be dealing with people in a certain order :(
    Still no medical either.

    Not honestly sure what they are doing - dependant upon the number of address's that you have had will impact on the time taken to complete - obviously goes for all family members as well - Mine was easy with only one address for each member - cannot remember your merit score - were did you place - they might be going in a numerical order but I know there are some that placed higher than myself - good luck

    No my situation is pretty much the same as yours - only one address for me and for family so can't be about that. It could be order of merit as I'm behind you I think, i'm 180-190 so hopefully thats all its about :)

    Still can't help but be a little worried though, if i'd already had my medical i'd feel better but with no sign of even that I can't help but think there is something wrong - especially if they are already starting to look at some on the reserve list before even processing the likes of me and others in the same boat you know?

    Ah well not a lot I can do! :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 171 ✭✭euros1


    Don't think there is anything to be worried about.I was 10-20 in merit list and its still in progress.this is just a slow process and it can take up to 8 weeks for CTC.I'm sure in the next month or so we will get that call.

    When did you submit it ?

    Well done !

    Just thought I'd mention, Dundonald House suffered damaged in the floods last month and it is on the news today that thousands of files were soaked. It didn't say it was recruitment files but I'd say every member staff at Dundonald house are desperately trying to salvage the files and that could be the cause of delay.
