I'd assume the same. February, may, August and November.

No harm asking HRM?

They'll tell you if it's been signed off. They've just got a massive stack to work through at the moment

File signed off on after quite a while. From November 15 intake so hoping i'll get a call for next intake. Can somebody shed a light on the OOM procedure? Haven't seen many from November intake so wondering if I'd be before the january and september people even with my OOM being in 500s? Thanks

Congrats!!!! :pac::pac::pac::pac:

Older campaigns are given priority and your campaign is more or less exhausted so you're pretty much guaranteed a spot in the November intake. :)

Do you think we have a good chance of making November intake ?? been told that my file is gone for sign off and I've an oom of around 280 from Sept 16.

Thanks

With the way things are with medical defferals, medical failures, fitness failures, fitness defferals, outstanding vetting and no-shows anything is possible.

Low oom of 200 myself, going by previous intakes I'm very confident at being offered a place but I'm also prepared for the possibility that I might not be called.

It's all a waiting game sadly. Putting my life on hold for this.

I can't say anything with any level of certainty but in my opinion I think you're in a good position for a potential november offer

November 15 and January 16 are the same campaign

Many here from the September 2016 campaign ?

So there are 2 campaigns possibly ahead of me so ? 2015 and Jan 2016?

Think that poster made an error, the last campaign before jan 2016 was in 2014 I believe and that campaign has been exhausted.

Potential confusion on my behalf. I originally applied in November 15 when the campaign opened so would that put me in the January campaign?

There's still a few from the 2013 campaign due to deferrals etc and may get priority for each upcoming intake.

Yeah it would! Campaign closed applications in January. I'm also from the January 16 campaign waiting for intake.

OOM is early 1000.. I don't know to be honest but I really don't think So! I was pushed back because I was on holidays for my first interview date and then had to get a deferral for eye surgery after the medical. I imagine it would just be people in a similar boat to me with small push backs and that.😊

Awh that is such a pain! Please God it is! I was talking to HRM the other day and they said the offers won't go out for November until the last week of September/ first week of October.. giving just 3-4 weeks notice. Another month of waiting to do at least...ugh!

Mid May when I had my physical there was 10 no shows on the day, so if you take into account people repeating Medicals,physicals, no shows and people from older intakes that may give a rough idea of what intake you could be put in. usually 200 in each intake

smiley963

Just to make you aware. Don't take everything HRM say for granted.
1. Update on vetting was told waiting to be signed off. Two weeks ago.

2. Last week informed vetting still outstanding

3. This week informed vetting waiting to be signed off and there's about 150's candidates waiting to be signed.

So take what you want from that. Sept 16 campaign meself.

Hi - I have OOM in 800s.  I've been through medical, met with Superintd and have a date for my physical in 2 weeks.  Any idea if I'll get in the Nov intake? When is the first 2018 intake do you know? Also, I see a lot of you have made contact with HRM.  What's the email address and/or contact number?

Howdy,

If your vetting is clear then you might stand some chance. But there's alot waiting below 800 as far as I can see but you really never know what all the defferals no shows and failures.

The number for HRM is below. Ask for appointments.

Next intake after november is assumed to be February.

When do people think the offers will come out for November intake?

Heard middle of September but who knows really, and there is a second round

MrBlack93

BonBon101 wrote: »

Going by previous patterns it'll be most likely the week of the 18th of september that offers will start going out. If not then it'll be the following week.

MrBlack93

At least the boxing on saturday will help take my mind off this painful waiting.

Senior management has signed off on your file on behalf of the commisioners office. Your just waiting to be assigned to an intake now relative to your OOM

The brother is a guard he told me today that a lad up where he is stationed got a letter on Tuesday just home inviting him to temple more to start in October. Has anyone heard of anymore being offered in October?

very interesting indeed, but i'd take that with a pinch of salt

Some of these anecdotal stories are often a game of chinese whispers where things get miscommunicated.

All offers for starting in Templemore are given through email so if true there must be something very unique about that person, possibly a deferral from a previous intake or something would be my best guess.

By start date in october that's probably a miscommunication as one of the induction weeks will be in october so it's still the November intake that's being referenced (Not an additional intake in october)

MrBlack93

Another week closer lads, you could cut the tension with a knife!!

The actual bleep test is 20 metres which is 65 feet give or take I believe, that's the measurement I used

Garda Pay

Does anybody know what the new recruits would be paying into a pension from there wages?

with the starting figure at 28,405 upon attestation im trying to work out the weekly figure,

I know ppl pay 29euro approx single for medical aid,

What would they pay weekly to a pension? Im clueless to pension payments myself

28405 would be 465weekly in a normal job outside of AGS, after medical aid and pension would we be looking at 400 a week?

Thanks!
