    Hi Emermc congrats, I also got confirmation I got placed 6th in order of merit. Is this a good placing as I've never applied for civil service post before?

    Yeah man it's great, it means that there's only 5 people ahead of you. So for the first position available, if those 5 turn it down you will be offered it. As long as there's more than 5 initial positions available you'll be offered a position, and soon probably. They'll call to tell you what and where and ask if you accept.

    Congrats that is great. Is that for development or infrastructure? I'm in the development stream & I'm 21. Hopefully there will be more than 21 jobs over the next 2 years. There are 3 public bodies looking too so hopefully.

    Its for infrastructure and I will probably opt for a regional post since I live down the country. I'd say the first posts will be offered in Dublin though.

    That is probably a decent placement to be honest - They say there are loads of jobs & lots of people retiring over the next few years and the panel will last for 2 years. Also, not everyone will except the offer.
