Garda Recruitment 2022/2023

Trying to fill out application for stage 3 but can not find my Leaving cert results anywhere, anyone any advice on what I should do?

Ring your secondary school, I rang mine and she gave me the results over the phone and posted them out too. And I done my leaving cert in 2008 and they still had it

Are we allowed to include opinions and assumptions of witnesses?, also hope everyone gets on well.

Just did it not too bad

I don’t have any degree, I did get a good leaving cert though. If they don’t want leaving cert results I’ll have to leave that field empty. They are doing things so differently this time around

Few questions regarding stage 3. Will the interviews be in-person or online?

And in regards to the first batch of 224 called forward from stage 1, is there any basis in shouts that they want to get this batch in the college for the end of September?

We don't know

And we don't know. September would seem very optimistic to get interviews, medicals, fitness tests and vetting done but maybe they'll surprise us. Unfortunately my faith in the public sector to do anything that quick and efficiently is rather low

So just did the report writing exercise. I found it rather easy to be honest. I'm not sure if we all get the same video or not and I don't want to give anything away but I thought mine was rather straightforward.

Anyone else find it rather simple? It reminded me of the Irish oral tests we had to due in school were you're given questions that you have to answer based on the dialogue (you know the ones) except this time they were speaking English. Which rather takes away most of the difficulty....

They said place names spellings can be wrong as long as a decent effort was made. But yeah glad I'm not the only one who found it rather simple. Typical and expected to have it set in Dublin with thick accents as well but I'm not surprised. If they reversed it and set it in Kerry with their thick accents I'm sure they'd have plenty of complaints about that.

Interviews starting 26th July and you book your own date, as above poster said get on it asap if you have any holidays or work commitments places are limited

Yeah you can, or at least I did after seeing no prohibition of it in the exam info and I was fine so it must be ok.

I’ve such a stupid problem, I got my nails done ages ago and literally don’t wanna take them off but I’m here practicing career services stage 2 and it’s literally impossible to type anything with these stupid nails im raging we can’t write it 😂😂 gonna have to pull them off when I do it tomorrow 🥲🥲 best of luck everyone doing it!!

Batch 1 was much smaller than batch 2 so it is hard to tell how long ye will be waiting for results to be sorted. I would guess you could expect them from early August onwards depending on the resources they have to correct them.

@Jukajoj No I don't think that'll stop you from passing if it's only the one address you couldn't get but you got the other important info, phone numbers etc.

The only thing is it might affect your OOM but not getting the one address wouldn't be a deal breaker I imagine.

I don’t know if stage 2 has any bearing on OOM. Got my results for stage 2 back last week and didn’t mention anything about OOM

Im in the 300’s so not the top 224 but my email said we keep the same OOM from stage 1

The only thing that makes sense to me is that they need to get a certain number through and ready for the next class ASAP, obviously the small size of the first batch makes it much faster to process.

The press release during the week that they want recruits from this campaign in Templemore before the end of September would support this.

Well just wondering out of the first batch who passed stage 2 did everyone pass I wonder like how many was called for interview?

I'm OOM 1876 is anyone else up around that? Just wondering when we will be called? Anyone have any idea? Thanks

Just did mine was actually grand ! Infairness! I got a public order one at a luas stop. One of witnesses didn’t give address so I was doubting myself that I didn’t hear it but it was fine I knew he didn’t give it. They repeat their phone numbers twice in each video so you actually hear it 4 times and one woman’s last name was weird I couldn’t spell it myself but she actually spells it!! Best of luck everyone hopefully see ye in temple more😉😂 here’s to stage 3 hopefully!

@roisinoharaa I had the same scenario as you, I had no idea what her last name was either! The second lad didn’t have an address but stated what his work ID was.

Did the guys who've done the report writing already get a breakdown of the results? How many passed or failed etc?

Because I know I'm not the only one who found that to be really rather simple. Be very interested in how many actually pass or fail
