    OK, I've now gotten the 3 emails in (last one just came so they are still sending them - probably automated)

    Total Score: 301
    Dublin Region: Placed 343 - called to Stage 2
    Cork Region: Placed 92 - we'll get in touch if your place is reached and call you to Stage 2
    Meath/Louth: Placed 81 - we'll get in touch if your place is reached and call you to Stage 2

    I presume if you don't get called to Stage 2 now it's very unlikely that you will in the future unless everyone else drops out.

    It's really a numbers game - Dublin and other urban centres have more jobs so higher numbers of people will be called.

    On the plus side this rankings are just a way of selecting people for the supervised tests. Then we'll be selected based on those for sending in a CV. Then they select based on that for interview. I've done this before so will be surprised if it doesn't follow along those lines.

    I got 66 on the numerical testing (qualifying mark was 37) and thought I did very badly due to the time given.


    cheers Pawnee, still have a thread of hope so!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,122 ✭✭✭Starscream25


    Scored 252 and placed in the early 800's in my area, yah.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 631 ✭✭✭RoadhouseBlues


    My score is very low but apparently I'm through.

    Total score: 217

    My place:
    Longford/Leitrim/Sligo 1714
    Donegal 812
    Mayo/Roscommon 1312

    I wont hold my breath:-):-).

    Someone asked did anyone get through who thought they did bad on the maths. I thought I was gone. I got 47 on the maths if that's any help.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭Tarzana


    Wonder if notification does by when you did the test? I did mine about two hours before the deadline.

    Should I receive 3 emails for the three different areas I selected?

    I picked three but only realised the message I received is for one of the areas I choose.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 wiseup42


    Just thinking about all the people who applied with the 'help' of a friend online -- the supervised tests will knock that one on the head!


  • Registered Users Posts: 825 ✭✭✭3fullback


    Did anyone get a call to stage 2 outside of Dublin ?

    Yeah you will but there was a gap of 3 hours between my first and last email

    I think somebody back the thread said they did for Cork and Limerick alright.

    I'd imagine the jobs in most counties are in the low teens or even under 10.

    I saw that but I would like to clarify if they actually were invited or just got the when vacancies arise message.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭Tarzana


    OK, that's enough checking and refreshing for one evening! :) Hopefully we'll get word tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 659 ✭✭✭yenom


    Got 256, placed in the 700s for Cork. Not a hope will I be called. All the best to everyone else.

    I don't understand this at all. 110 out of 20. Buh? Oh, is it right to wrong? Like 110 right, 20 wrong?

    20 is the pass mark.

    I seem to be in top 20 in Donegal but it's a 'should vacancies arise' message I got.

    Just checked my message board got word at 18:22 was begining to think I would not hear anything. Passed stage one but am placed 1315 for the Kildare/Wicklow area. I also applied to Waterford and possibly Dublin. Will I hear back about these?

    So there is still plenty of time for people to hear their results even later on today

    Well, they're clearly saving the best til last. I obvs came first in Dublin, OBVS.

    :pac::pac::pac:

    OMG, just a thought, imagine actually being the person that comes first in your region? You'd be all 'Fúck yea'. :pac:
