Ever since you posted this I've been doing this too. Although it's more 'Delay email, bitch' in pure Jesse Pinkman style.

Love love love breaking bad can't wait for better call Saul

vick i'm in the same boat,66% and impatiently waiting....

Clare1304

I think that 68 was me. I know someone with the same mark who hasn't received anything. I don't get it.....

vickmackey

yeah, I'd agree that while the waiting is frustrating, its the "NOT KNOWING WHAT THE HECK WAY THINGS ARE BEING DONE" is the most frustrating! -- have to say, I really have appreciated that the folks who have already progressed have been good enough to give an idea of how they received their letters and responses etc.....its seems its the only real way of getting an idea of how things progress.......
hurry up postie!....worse than Valentines day or School report day when I was a kid! (a long time ago!!)

The wait goes on!! Dying to get a PCA date!

Just want to know I'm in with a chance!

Got the letter from Matt Baggot yesterday!

azrael99

Wouldnt really make sense for them to run a completely new competition for the new intake that was in Matt Baggot's letter would it? Surely they'd use people from the list in this competition?

vickmackey

from my reading on initial process, they weren't doing a new recruitment campaign for couple of years, or at least until they had started all the successful candidates from this campaign, which may take a while..

This is worse than waiting to hear if we passed or failed ! :rolleyes:

Anyone with balls bigger than mine* want to call or email PSNI HR to find out once and for all? :P

* Figuratively speaking

azrael99

Still no post today, this is killing me 66% pass I thought was a decent enough mark, just hope I hear soon

same mark and same looooong wait
sure, its more time to work on fitness.....;):D

azrael99

Well now that is true every cloud a silver lining and all that :P

I have a feeling they may wait until the first batch start in GV before they contact us so they don't overload themselves. Just a guess. Would like it to be before.

Hoping it's sooner though!!

vickmackey

could well be possibility....or not.....or may be....or not.....ah well, just have to keep guessing and training and pouncing on the poor postie!! ;-)

I am preferring waiting on the postman. once he is gone for the day I can forget about it until the next day. When I was waiting on an email I obsessed from 9am until 8pm at night. only time I didn't was the weekend lol.

vickmackey

think the postman kinda looks forward to getting pounced on now!! ;-)

I know a girl who was part of the delay email batch and she got her vetting forms yesterday but no date for PCA so looking hopeful

:eek:........ooooooooo.....cheers!
any chance you'd know if she was A or B pass???

azrael99

I would say anyone who was in the delay batch was a B but thats just a guess from me. Would imagine if she was an A she would have been in the first batch

sorry, i'm getting even more confused now --i thought the "first batch" was the people who had AC dates in Dec/Jan....and "delayed batch" was for those had AC date feb onwards??? and then each of these groups was graded.....??????

azrael99

I dont think so because my AC date was 3 December but i got a grade B and got a delay email so i presumed anyone who scored less than an A got a delayed email but could be wrong

vickmackey

ahh!!! thankyou so much for clarifying that! that is how i initially expected it to be. makes much more sense!

Remember from the start and the joinpsni website it'll be phased candidates due to merit.
So obviously they first group in the depot will be A or A* and rhen high Bs etc
By now they are bound to know how many people they will be highering so hence why some 68% ers have vetting forms.
Remember this process will likely last into next year.

DesertCreat_15

If they wanted to do that they should have made it into two groups as with the A's, B* and B's ! Whats the point in passing the whole group of B's on to the PSNI if they aren't even going to consider them?

Anyway, if theres one thing I hate, it's speculation !

vickmackey

I just wasn't sure how some people had done physicals so early on, when there was large number sent delayed AC results, some of whom posted that they had As - still a bit confused.com - but will wait as long as needed. Just happy I'm in that position!

I'm happy for the post man to take his time! We know we've passed so now I'm grateful for a little more time to get as fit as poss, especially for push/pull!

Never said they won't consider them.
There will be fails at pca and medical as youve seen already and at vetting. Meaning low bs habe just as much of a chance.

We have all been passed and have entered the merit pool. Wether you're like me through medical pca etc or someone waiting on recieving vetting forms.
We are all in with a chance of a job.

I was in the delay batch and I'd an A* so there are exceptions though we delayed or not we still all passed and all still have a chance of getting in Hotel G

Now for a random one...anyone heard of the high potential scheme?

think its for those showing an aptitude for specialist skills....or wanting to focus on certain career path....there was something on the joinpsni website (not much though)...good to see someone aiming high already!;)

azrael99

If you look at the email which was sent to all successful candidates from the AC it says at the bottom that it is a provisional offer of employment as long as you can pass the next 5 stages so to me that would say that if you got an email that you passed there isn't a chance that you will not be even considered, you will get vetting papers and a date for the PCA but they are obviously just running this in batches, I think if you got an email to say you passed the AC then you have a chance at the job as long as you pass the 5 stages the PSNI require. We are simply speculating at the moment and i'm not sure its necessarily a good thing.

vickmackey

yup-- just a waiting game and then do your best -- que sera, sera!
