Hopefully it wont take long for you. Some people on Boards have waited a long time, while others haven't. That's not considering the applicants that don't use boards so I'd keep the faith if I was you.:D

thanks I'm here complaining and u are waiting longer hopefully they will see they need us ha ha 😂😂 and speed it up

Gnr_Iver

Ah yeah, god knows I done my fair share of complaining too, over the last 10 months haha.

I rang HQ today. Apparently they completed a lot of files last week with vetting. She confirmed that the first 100 offers will be out this week.

No indications of the OOMs they're up to? Is it 100 offered this week 100 next week?

Yes, 100 this week then 100 next week. Bear in mind that a handful of the people that are offered a place will turn it down. The highest OOM I seen being offered was in the 900s.
550 people have already been attested since September. So if you take into account the amount of people failing/deferring, then it should give you a idea of what chance you have based on your OOM. I'm guessing they will struggle to fill this intake because many people will probably be sitting college exams or travelling for the Summer and vetting even though they seemed to have completed many of the files at once last week.

IceWeasel

I wonder is there many people from 2013 left over to be called. I'm somewhat confident of an email but the wait is killing me haha

Gnr_Iver

Yeah, I'd say there is still people waiting for offers from the 2013 campaign and deffo some from 2015 too.

Must be a nightmare waiting since 2013. 2015 myself with OOM in the low 100's so just keep my fingers crossed for Thursday.

That gives me no idea! Help a girl out

Howard828

True good few in and out and all! I think there was someone here from 2013!? From ppl i know in the college, they said the 2013 crowd are no longer in it, whoever was to get through got through already. Unless they have legitimate reasons for deferral....but really who knows. Fingers crossed boys and girls! This is the worst part of the whole process, more stressful because its now out of or hands ha all we can do is wait.

ganthy

I don't think I have seen anyone on this from 2013 still waiting....The lowest OOM from the 2015 campaign that I have heard of is in the 1400s. And that is after interview only. That doesn't mean there is still 1400 waiting. Many of them would have failed fitness and medical.

God damn it tomcwn

I reckon it will be last thing Thursday evening before they run out the door and anyone has a chance to call them

redgreendragon

Hard to concentrate on much this week. I know once people get offers this week they may tend not to post here anymore but could you please just say what campaign you are from etc before you sign off here just to give the rest of us an idea of what oom they are at.

AM11

I'd say people will be talking about info packs and what shoes to bring and if they canwear trunks instead of speedos etc etc! Seems as if once your in the college your told to get off these threads.

What campaign and OOM are you from? Hoping for/ expecting an offer?

Yes, your told not to post and told 'people are watching', personally I don't see the harm, unless your giving out information that would be sensitive and also it might not be what you post here in the ES forum, but your views on other things or post history could be seen as a the point of view of a 'member of AGS' so to speak.

You'd be best, having two account on Boards, one for this forum and another for the rest of the site. Which I think is not allowed, so I think most stick with the normal account and just stop posting here.

Basically, consider your account is going to have to go into 'closed' mode once you get an offer and you'll have to register again if you want to use boards.

Unless all your view on this site are very politically correct :pac:

Hi guys

Sorry this may have already been asked in other threads but thought I'd ask yourselves as we appear to all be in the same position.
From reading through the post on this I'm being led to believe there are people still waiting for offers from the 2013 campaign, is it possible to be kept waiting that long once all stages have been completed?
Personally hoping for an offer this week but the more I'm reading these threads the less hopeful I am.
Thanks

AM11

What campaign and OOM are you from?

From November 2015 unsure of OOM

AM11

Theres no way to know really but if you're from 2015 you might have a good chance. If everything is back you'd be picked before Sept 2016, well you SHOULD be. Your OOM was given to you when you passed the interview. Check you emails for your results public jobs. Best of luck.

Marck

Hi guys.
Just a question in relation to the meeting with the super/seargant... how long after finding out results did people get their meeting? Thanks in advance ..

Not sure if anyone has even looked this far ahead but 32 weeks brings us up to early December. We then have 2 weeks off. So our first week on the job will begin 24th December which as we all know is Xmas eve. Anyone shed any light on how this might work for us all?
