    Only 4 weeks residential and after that it depends on personal circumstances


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 91 ✭✭tony1985


    You can stay for full 22 weeks if you are from further afield. Only those of us within an hour are really expected to leave

    Can anyone who has been for an induction (if you have yet) or spoken to HR confirm if the full 22 weeks is residential?

    You could say, Im not from around here

    35 mile rule sort of applies inside that you go home outside you can stay if there's room

    Cheers folks, Irish Sea may present something of a barrier for me getting home in the evenings :)

    If selected that is.....

    For any of you guys/gals at the induction weekend, was there any discussion of where the majority would be posted?

    Cheers for that. Was it an enjoyable day?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 56 ✭✭hopeful34


    Let's just say it was an eye opener and leave it there.

    Oh and a long 2 days

    So how is everyone holding up waiting for the call? Dare we think of phones ringing in 3 weeks time?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭boblaw88


    Passed the medical, just need to finish the online learning now! I could see a call in 2/3 weeks for sure!

    In 3 weeks all the second batch of medicals will be completed and online learning closed so would make sense if calls are around then


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29 Constablemaybe


    First batch got the call roughly 5 weeks before their start date, if the second batch starts 5 weeks after the first batch then the second batch could get the call in about 3 weeks time, maybe!


  • Registered Users Posts: 151 ✭✭whatinthe


    I hope so!

    Anyone else from the first batch here waiting? I can't remember who's who ha!

    So, what do you guys think will happen with the next intake? Will those of us left from batch one be next in line, or will there be a merit list drawn up? Thoughts?

    I think it will essentially be the first x amount cleared vetting will be offered positions.

    I don't know whether an official merit list will be drawn up as they seem to be just putting enough through who they are going to be able to offer jobs to... hence the number of b passers yet to receive pca dates etc... (must state this is guess work based on little evidence)


  • Registered Users Posts: 151 ✭✭whatinthe


    Ya I'm hopeful that is how it will work. Come the 2nd week of May I'll have my phone constanly charging in anticipation, just in case haha!

    I wish they could let us know now even if the start date was July/Aug just to stop this torture!! Hopefully if we are up next then there is a greater chance of getting placed in preferred district.


  • Registered Users Posts: 151 ✭✭whatinthe


    Ya it would be peace of mind as well! Living in limbo at the moment!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,262 ✭✭✭DesertCreat_15


    Nothing to worry about lads ! You could be like most of us B's! No doubt we'll need to reapply! :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 197 ✭✭Jb12345


    Could this be the week of phone calls? I think the last ones went out on Thurs 3rd. So hopefully this Thurs... Who knows.

    Possibly but I think its more likely to be the week after as the intakes are scheduled to be every 5 wks.
