Hi I just recently passed my interview and sent off my security clearance last week and got an email to look for dob,address & phone number. Does it take long for medical or does anyone know the time lines of stages. Any info would be greatly appreciated thanks

japunia

Iam alone very curious how long can take it,but as I know longest part coud be clearance and in meantime they will send us for medical/physical .

Moo02

I got the email after sending clearance too. Might be in couple of weeks before we hear about medical. It’s a long process

I got an email today for medical and also got one for Garda vetting. Just wondering for proof of address did anyone use a broadband bill it says on email not to use it but on the 100points vetting it says it’s ok to use?

I spoke to hq yesterday and they said there are classes starting 16th October, 27th November & and one in December

What the pay & hour like i see they are recruiting at the moment

Did many of you guys do the Prison officer online course ??

Is it worth doing it in preparation

Does anybody know if IPS actually request references from previous or current employers?

Don't particularly want to get stung at work and the awkwardness of them asking me if I'm leaving.

Out of interest how quickly do people go or is there a beep to get the rythem ,

Sounds like the only difficult part would be pacing yourself ,

Stretch1432

Is the Prison Officer salary the same as Garda or do they get more. Very hard to find out . Just curious btw ....

paul98

Hi all just wondering what the physical is like particularly the bench press and the push and pull test I’ll be okay for the running

rp33
