Anyone know if they've started batch 4 for Donegal, I emailed them 3 weeks ago and they hadn't ... don't want to be wrecking their heads

Hey. Im in batch 4 and have heard nothing. Id say we wont hear anything until after brexit. What number are u? Im 4th in the list. I was thinking they might be recruiting for custom posts soon?? But im only guessing.

Any update on the Kerry panel?

Hi Kerry gold, got assigned a position on Monday... I was around number 12 on Batch 2.1, so it is moving fairly well. Best of luck

I'm 10th when I emailed them 3 weeks ago they said there was 15 in front of me .. just thought might be placed quicker than it is! you are probably right about the customs jobs ... fingers crossed you will hear something soon

Finally some movement on the Galway panel. I just got placed in batch 4, having done the other stages for the Clare one.

Yes its very slow. They are still interviewing for donegal also. They must be expecting a lot of jobs. I will let you know if i hear anything. ðŸ‘

Results from stage 2 longford are out...

CL17

Just got results from Stage 2. Amazingly I passed, genuinely thought I'd have failed the numerical as i felt it went so badly.
In batch 6 for Cork now but it's Kerry I want and no word from that. Just happy to know I passed stage 2 if I eventually got a call for Kerry.

Mine didnt give me a batch number just a OOM number?? Is it the same thing??

The batch number is at top of the message.

Our Ref: Batch x

OOM only is after stage 1 and they don't give batches.

sgarvey

Oh yes sorry I see it now... its batch 4 OOM 6 so hopefully they get that far����

Similar to myself, OOM 16 in Tipperary.

They are placing end batch 2, start batch 3 now.

And if called for interview, very easy jump more places in OOM.

I jumped a good few places with stage 2 results.

Grand to be still rolling in it all the same and you'd never know.

sgarvey

Wonder how many is there in a batch approximately??

Sra360

OOM 25 for Waterford, Batch 6 received. Happy I got one as I thought I had messed up the reading assessment, is 25 a good number or will I be waiting a long time to get called for an interview? Thanks!

Any idea when the interviews will begin in longford?

MuffinTop86

I rang earlier to find out about Galway. They’re currently on Batch 3 with one left to place. Will then generally move on to batch 4, however there maybe a batch 3.1 created.

Anyway just got a call back from the number there but it was buried in my bag. Rang straight back and got some market research recorded message.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Just got an interview!! Its in Dublin!
Thought it might be in the area I'm applying for!

Hi are you batch 5? What location have you applied for?
I'd say leave plenty of time to find the place, coz I was a bit puzzled
It's right beside jervis shopping centre
So if you Google map it that should help!
I'm not from Dublin so I'm unfamiliar with dublin

The email invite shows shows three areas they will focus on, just have some personal. Examples in those areas. It's really just a go/no go interview, nothing hard. They mark you but you only need half the marks to pass and it don't affect your oom

As far as I know it does affect your OOM, I know someone who got in recently and was OOM15 and after interview was OOM7

MuffinTop86

It does affect your OOM. It didn’t used to I don’t think, but does now.

Would the fact that people have got jobs and are therefore off the panel not push people’s OOM up the list regardless of interview performance?

I was 29 before and after the interview. Catwomen was behind me initially and then ahead after the interview( well done by the way).
