    Anyone know when we're likely to hear back after the interview?


  • Registered Users Posts: 242 ✭✭killer91


    I asked at the end of the interview.

    They didn't know for 100% but they said if we are successful we should hear back within 3-4 weeks for a medical.

    Usually it's the medical after interview but don't think anyone knows what's happening I'm sure we will know in next weeks anyway :), and usually recruit training starts at end of October but it's starting mid august this year

    Did my interview over 2 weeks ago, no word yet. Have heard the first class is in August, not sure if that's accurate. Just a waiting game now.

    I had my interview on the 23rd in Brugha and was told that there was another week of interviews.

    There was sessions in the morning and the afternoon for the first week but I dunno about the second week.

    Has anybody heard anything about a start date or even the month they hope to start the training?

    Does anybody know if the scores from the pyschometric testing and interview are added together to give a final ranking (pardon the pun) or is the interview the only thing that determines a candidate's place?

    Thanks

  • Registered Users Posts: 263 ✭✭Gorman700


    Same, naval service candidates are meant to be doing verification aptitude tests in the curragh within the next 2 weeks. Surely we'll know this week!

    Hi guys, I just received this email.



    I wish to refer to your application for General Service Recruitment and to request your attendance for Stage 4 of the competition: Realistic Job Preview and Psychometric Verification Testing. This part of the process will take place in the Curragh Camp. Candidates will NOT require suits/formal wear for this stage of the competition.

    Venue: Military College, The Curragh Camp, Co Kildare.

    Candidates should report to the Parking area, which will be clearly signposted, from where they will be directed to the reception area in the Military College (this will be well signposted from the entrance into the camp).

    Date: June 2014 Time: 13.30

    When reporting for Stage 4 you should bring the following with you:

    a. Photographic identity card (e.g. Passport or Driving Licence).

    b. A copy of this email.

    Failure to bring any of the above mentioned documents may result in you being removed from the competition.

    You will be finished Stage 4 at approximately 16.30p.m. the same day.



    Yours sincerely,


    Manpower Office
    2 Bde
    Cathal Brugha Bks
    Rathmines
    Dublin 6




    So it looks like we're doing the testing before the medical.

    I'm curious to know what the "Realistic Job Preview" entails.

    Any body else receive anything yet?
