    It would be great if it was lowered by one mark but I think it will be too late by the time the ACs have started so I won't be holding my breath. It's been good being on here for the most part. Good luck to all of you who have got on to the assessment centre. Thanks in particular to PSNI2013, Highburylad, Dekkers, Gee and all the rest of you guys for making this process more enjoyable.

    All the best!

    Cheers TT, all the best with yourself, yeah I think this is my farewell too, I've been posting here since January 2013 when I was told that there will be recruitment commencing this year, it's been good fun and nor do I think a waste, I've learnt a lot and got a lot of experience out of this, which will help me in the future with whatever happens with myself, there is good folks on here that will make good cops and that includes those that didn't make it this time, the PSNI is something I had wanted to do, this time it's not for me, but as I have said before I'm fortunate enough to have other avenues and I always thought in my heart that I would maybe have to go farther a field to get what I want, being a police officer didn't matter where I was as long as I was doing that job, would've been nice to stay at home, but it's not to be, yet!!! I'm a young gun lol and hopefully I'm good to continue with Bonnie Scotland, with that folks I wish all the very best with their applications and those that are in the same boat with me I know it feels like that boat is sinking, but there is other opportunities that will present themselves in the new year and 2014 is a big year for policing if your looking to stay true to this career path, England Scotland Wales and the South are all looking and looking big numbers so if you's are free to expand out a bit then there's other avenues :) but again all the best folks and thank you :)

    The time has come for me also to step aside for my own mental well being. Didn't think I would have to do it this early but there you go. I've no one to blame but myself as I didn't do well enough in the data test.

    I've been hanging about the PSNI recruitment thread since 2008 and every time I hope it's my turn but alas the wait goes on.

    Good luck to all those that have made the first hurdle and for the few that make it stay safe and enjoy.

    For those that don't make it see you back here in 2015! :)

    I'm just going to have to look for something else to fill the void - Roll on the new year and new beginnings.

    Arrivederci!

    Best of luck guys and gals. Hope you give it another shot next time :)

    Time for me to sign off as well guys, good luck to everyone who has made it through to the next stage, maybe speak to some of you in 2015


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 975 ✭✭✭Dekkers


    Just in the door catching up in the evenings posts. Truly heart wrenching. I'm not going to bother with consoling words (are there any?) but echo the sentiments of previous posters.

    Just wanted to thank those of you who aren't going through for your contribution, opinion and advice. You know who you are and it genuinely won't be the same around here without many of you.

    Going forward, good luck with whatever doors do open for you and take care.

    Peace.

    You might have warned me to turn my volume down. Scared the bejesus out of me!

    Jumps at loud noises = terrible police officer

    There's loads of lurkers who just popped in to say they passed. Which was nice of them. We've got some pretty big boots to fill around here to get us through the next stage ha

    It is, hopefully you lurkers will be more active ;)

    On a separate note, I guess we can promote ourselves to the Assessment centre thread? :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 201 ✭✭letsdoit2013


    It's a fail from me too guys. Im in my early 20's so still plenty of time, a bit more life experience wouldn't do me any harm tbh lol!

    Want to wish everyone who passed and failed all the best. I'll probably still follow the thread to see how you all do

    Good luck

    Seems that Tuesday were all passes and today were all fails then. Sorry to all of those that didn't make it through. Feel your pain. I'm suprised at some of the marks my own friends have finished with. I myself missed a good few questions toward the end and was really worried about the outcome until Tuesday.
