So are people in batch 2 and 3 going to be asked to do any more of the recruitment process?

Yeah, i'd imagine you'll be doing them within the next 12-18 months for the batches that will be going into templemore in next year and the year after.

Someone said on here that medicals only last 6 months or so. Thats prob explains why they might be putting batches 2 and 3 in the freezer for the time-being.

Got the text to check my publicjobs account. Batch 1 get called first then depending how many pass they go to batch 2,3

Not at the moment

Its hard to explain

When you get your result read down underneath to the next passage

That's what caught me out!

DesertCreat_15

To me it appears that only bands 2 & 3 have been released. Like I'd expect people in band 1 to post too....

Batch 3 I doubt it depends how many are in batch 2
Also, they will have to change stage two tests, if they decide to take on anymore. I hate this wish I knew how likely It would be to be called so we'd know or not now. I think there might be a bit of false hope

Just remember this is going to be for the next few recuirtment drives. So they will get through 2 And 3

Exactly, they will be putting panels in place for future recruitment

Oh sorry I'm confused…do they contact batch 1 first and then 2 and 3 or is a case that batch 2/3 may still be called to stage 2…sorry to annoy u:)

No one knows yet... Did you get your results?

Nothing yet, when I think about it now, I'm starting to believe that batch 2 and 3 could be waiting for a while, why would the government spend money on Guards for the next crowd that get in. Strange way of looking at it but I think Fine Gael know they are going to be hoofed out and are not gonna have 600 guards there ready and waiting for the next government to go

Me either, nada

% wise the amount that will finally get through to interview and beyond is quiet small. I think people have to take into account the large amout of applications plus the standard of those at the top is probably very high.

I wouldnt be too disheartened by it, there is always next time!!

Thecameraman

Me either hopefully soon

WilcoOut

Batch 2 or 3 you may forget about it.

batch 1 has more than enough ppl for the next 3 years

This is going be for next 3 years recuirtment for alot of people this is there last chance

lukesmom

My last chance I'm 34! If I don't get through then it just isn't meant to be.

But they may only take 300 from batch one

subaru scooby

I passed placed in band 3. if a number in batch one fail the stage 2 exam.they then call upon batch two. it will be highly unlikely they'll get to batch 3. whats anyone's take on this?

But Batch one contains the top 5k. why would you skip past them for a lower batch?

Unless there is only 300 that are good during the interview stage they wont go to the next batch

That's a bit harsh for those in band 2 & 3 including me!

You have to remember theres still 2 more appitude tests so that might rule out have of them if not more

Then the rest interview, med, fitness

So they will have to delve into 2 & 3

Best of luck to those in all bands

You're not annoying me, ha. I haven't a clue how they work it but it seems as if batch 2,3 are getting results 1st

Thecameraman

Anyone get into batch 2 yet?

Guys, they are creating batches 2 and 3 for a reason. Ie to eventually make their way to them.

Hands_shaking

I'm near afraid to keep checking my PJ messages....I want to see a new message in there...but maybe not just yet! The nerves...

Don't think so, still waiting myself

Lenn Brennan

Don't lose faith, don't forget they are going to be putting panels in place for future recruitment. It's not all just for the 1st intake.

You have passed stage 1 and that's something to be happy about

blazermel

Could no news mean good news? as in Batch 1 hopefully? best of luck to all!

timcos25

hard to know where you stand if you are in batch 2 or 3

Canyon86

The stress of waiting is starting to kill me. I don't want to have waited this long to be told I failed.

Just calling a spade a spade lads

i havnt been ranked yet but if im not in batch 1 - theres no chance of getting in in the next 4 years. Be realistic!!

Best of luck to all involved

thestar

Such a ruthless way of doing a recruitment process, 25,000 down to 5000 in a moment. I haven't got my results yet but if I'm not in batch one I'll be forgetting about it. Gonna be a lot disappointed people tonight in this country

lukesmom

Yes it's quite a wait with a good few posters having gotten their result already. Fingers crossed for all who haven't found out yet. I can't even log onto public jobs website. Just waiting for the email......c'mon!

Lord Trollington

If you haven't received anything, that's bad. Right?

No I received word about the stage one test first and got results first. It doesn't mean a thing

Lord Trollington

I feel sick, I've been waiting for this for 6 years and haven't received anything.

Will they contact you one way or another whether you passed or failed?

Yeh I think it could be something to do with the order of the aptitude tests as in some had a window of Mon to Wed (or something similar) to complete theirs and I had from the Friday to Monday of the same week. Haven't heard anything yet either.

Lord Trollington

Just got word. Band 2 and just outside top 5,000. Gutted in one respect.

Ya i had the same time but its a bit unfair cos u think they would send it out to everyone at the same time
