    Hi, Just a quick question on this thread (I'm in the 200 currently being shortlisted for the SEE comp). Subject to being called to interview, I was thinking of doing the optional Irish language test - Can anyone offer any advice in terms of the level required. My Irish is pretty basic!!

    For the SEE comp, I received an email today noting that the next phase of shortlisting is taking in places up to 301 (I'm around 240).

    Has anyone on here sat the interview yet? Any insights?

    Panel still live, as expression of interest for next 200 on Order of Merit was sent out to candidates a couple of weeks ago for Cork Co. Council.

    I wonder did many respond to the request. I responded to EOI stating that I would be interested. Anyone else???

    Yeah, I got that too - the first thing I've heard in quite a while. Calling "the next 200" for shortlisting/interview so that'd be up to 400 in the OOM - but only the ones interested in Cork, which is not me. I think the chances of them reaching my place in the OOM before the panel expires are slim to none, assuming the panel expires in the autumn of this year?

    Ah well...

    Never said never at this stage. Recruitment in the current climate is a tough business with staff retention very difficult.

    See how things progress and if anyone who completed an EOI for Cork has anything to contribute, I will do so also.

    Hi All, hoping somebody here can help to direct me. I applied for the 2020 SEO competition. I have an interview next week. However this is my first time to ever apply for a public service job. I assume I am either successful or unsuccessful after interview. But if successful does that just means I go on to a long list of people and may or may not be called ever for a job?

    There's probably a newer thread (one for the 2020 SEO competition, and there are definitely ones for the APO competitions) - but yes, if successful, you're added to a panel in order of your score. Next vacancy up is offered to first person on the panel, and so on. Not sure about SEO, but APO panels tend to last up to two years, and you can be offered a post while the panel is still live. Obviously, they may never reach your place on the panel.
