    Congratulations on the offer... Just for us that are new to the process could u say how the OOM works or when it kicks in? And just wondering did ye have the situational scenarios in your initial assesment questionare? Thanks


  • Registered Users Posts: 70 ✭✭Izzyruby89

    Thanks!

    Well you get an OOM after every stage ranking your position.

    The main OOM comes after your interview, and obviously the lower the number, the quicker you go through the process.

    When it comes to getting an offer then vetting can slow you down.

    I think we did get scenarios, but I found them very straightforward.

    Stage 2 scenarios were a bit more challenging.

    Anyone know if all the offers are out? I'm between 450-475 and all my vetting is back and I'm all ready to go in, just waiting on an offer, should I give up on November?

    I wouldnt give up hope. 200 (at least) went in in september. Probably the same again. With deferrals and lack of cleared vetting (#PrayForGnr_iver) ya could well be in line for the nod

    The offers are out for the first week of induction s. Second week aren't out yet so don't give up hope. I wouldn't rule it out till a week before start date.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41 Chris14


    So the offers for the second week aren't out at all yet?


  • Registered Users Posts: 70 ✭✭Izzyruby89

    No they are usually out the following week. And I have heard of people getting emails a week before. Sometimes they find it hard to fill the phase because of people failing fitness and vetting.


  • Registered Users Posts: 47 kerbie_0408


    Quick question I have my induction 14th and then I'm officially starting the 28th so the week In between is a free week for me? As in week off?


  • Registered Users Posts: 70 ✭✭Izzyruby89


    I'm same. Congrats. Ya the week in-between is free.

    Really gutted about November. Have everything passed and placed in mid 300s but still waiting to meet local Sgt and super! Was hoping I would of met them this week and have my chances for November. Anybody else have to wait this long to meet them? Fitness and everything is done. Just waiting on them.

    Think a guy was in samesituation as you for September intake. He met them a week b4 September start date and straight away after meeting them got an email saying he's b starting in few days. So don't lose hope. (I'm answering everyone because I'm bored AF BTW)

    That's strange mate. Usually you would meet them between the medical and fitness stage. I would contact HR and ask why your local station hasn't contacted you.

    The file has to be sent to your local station from HR so that would be your best bet.:D

    Contact your local garda station and ask to be put through to the Sargent. Explain your story and that you are caught for time. They will try to help you out.
