    No probs. They check your breathing etc too. And you have to have an audiogram. Best of luck

    Yes you can still be called, the last competition I was way down and I was called, it took them around a year to call me to stage 2.

    When did you have your interview? I had mine in November and hoping to be starting June too if the clearance is back


  • Registered Users Posts: 24 deeodee


    Did the pct in March and interview in February. I’d asked when my start date would be and they had said April 23rd if clearance came back, it’s gonna be 11th of June now I think.

    It's the waiting that is hard, like I would be disappointed if I did not get the job but at least I would know either way

  • Registered Users Posts: 146 ✭✭User2206


    Hi, just wondering if anyone can help me out! I’m in the 2018 campaign and just qualified for stage 3... my OOM is in the 300’s, I was just wondering if anyone can confirm from this campaign that they qualified interview stage with an OOM this high? Kinda worrying that my merit isn’t low enough to even be called for an interview :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 20 TopProspect


    Could someone that has previously passed the interview please explain what the interview entails. This is greatly appreciated ðŸ‘
