    Just got email through saying that they don’t expect to take any new students to college before June this year, reduced numbers to allow for social distancing

    My SMT result took 3 weeks, if its been over 2 weeks I would drop HR an email.

    What ML range are you and have you passed all the other stages?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4 nornirnman


    hoping I'll be starting soon


  • Registered Users Posts: 249 ✭✭NeeNaw21


    Dude. Remove your ML number and give a range ...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 341 ✭✭NornIron74

  • Registered Users Posts: 20 mcc212ajc

    Calls usually go out every 5 weeks but there probably won't be anymore until June because of covid 19. Well done on waiting 8 months, mine passed after 3 months and I thought that was long enough.

    I’m still waiting from the middle of August.......

    got the email last Friday saying the vetting had cleared. ML is 450-480 . for anyone whose anxiously waiting it will come don't worry or lose hope. I genuinely just forgot about the vetting and it came as a nice surprise . the next thing is just the call , but the fact you have passed all stages and are appointable is a nice stage to be at. you will all get there too guys sooner or later, we've all come this far and theres a lot to be said for that. no doubt I will see some guys on here in college aswell.

    Aye my ML is 410-430 and I had a hell of a time passing my medical which to be fair helped take my mind of waiting on vetting. I had no idea it would take this long though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 92 ✭✭SMS19


    Anyone any idea how far down the ML list recruitment have got, my last count was round 750ish?


  • Registered Users Posts: 20 mcc212ajc


    the wait just makes it all the sweeter when it does come through . I've been checking the recruitment statistics and they seem to be getting through a large chunk of this campaign very quickly with over 300 already accepted offers of appointment so despite the covid that still looks quite promising for us all

    Got invite to complete online learning stage. Anyone else get this invite recently and if so anyone having issue creating account?


  • Registered Users Posts: 21 4thelads


    Once lockdown is starting to ease, they will speed the process up dramatically. It'll mean they won't just be using GV as a training facility but likely another site for more senior squads. That will help push candidates through quicker. Only a matter or being patient guys

    Got the online learning invite as well. I made my account a few days ago then went to get started yesterday and the site was having issues. 100% now though, perhaps the Virgin outages were affecting the site?
