    Morning.

    When going for interview is it just the security form and qualification certs we need to bring with us ?

    Off the top of my head you'll need your passport too

    In creating the same conditions as the 600metre 40 - 15 metre consecutive sprints is it running between 2 lines back and forth continuosly? Do you have to run around markers or just turn and run back the way you came?

    I remember someone writing on this a few months ago saying it was to the line and back, not around markers

    Yes, I also remember the question being asked and the response from someone who had completed PCT was 'line to line.' Did you get a notification to do test yet as I'm waiting on mine.

    Got an email today saying that they see I expressed interest and if I wish I can confirm I'm still interested by 3rd November and next step will be interview.

    I'm a Clerical Officer in civil service as is, I wonder would I be allowed to go over at the same point of scale as I'm currently on....

    I'd consider it if I was

    Mine is not to reason why. It simply won't be happening. Feel free to ring IPS.

    Well done troll

    Is your security clearance completed before your asked to do the medical?

    I hope you got it in writing.

    You may be able to carry some of your service for pension purposes but you will definitely start at bottom of RPO pay scale. You will not carry your current pay scale. Best of luck, we need more angry people like you.

    Anybody who just completed medicals in the last 2 weeks have you heard anything about the next PCT dates?


  • Registered Users Posts: 207 ✭✭Jakeren7


    Anyone have their interviews this week. How you find it. I done mine today


  • Registered Users Posts: 22 Great Mate


    Has anyone who has passed the interview heard anything about their vetting?
    apparently it can take an age to clear.

    With the 4 classes starting in the new year I wonder has there been any push on it.
