Dublin Fire service recruitment? Anyone know??

Any truth to the whispers that they're still asking more people to interview

New recruitment driving going to be advertised very very soon

Dfb waiting on public jobs to advertise for firefighters, shouldn’t be too much longer.

new emergency service controller campaign this year too .

Any update on if there will be a recruitment campaign this year?

yep, massive advantage.

Better start working on my aptitude tests so. I had never heard there was a separate application. Thanks guys :)

Is there any new info about a new recruitment campaign?

God I was hoping it would be by the end of the year will it be early next year do you think when it will be run?

I honestly dont know when . It could happen this year but I doubt it . I really don’t know how dfb get away with the lack of staff . There’s trucks off the road every day all over the city . Not to mention the lack of officers too . Years of poor management and no recruitment

Hi all,

I am just wondering at this point if there is still upcoming recruitment campaign for dublin fire brigade? I am very much interested to pursue a career with same. I am a registered nurse and working in hopsital at the moment, so I don't have any idea as to how to apply and what are the steps in making it. I hope I can get some answers😊 How often do they open for recruitment, where can I find the ads for the job, is there a talent pool where I can send an intent to apply, what are the documents I need to prepare initially, how long does it take to know if you they will accept your application, etc. thanks in advance to those who would reply.

That's sounds great but I did laugh too because we heard it was the summer but that never happened

Anyone know if they accept a Level 5 Major Award from a PLC for the education requirements? I know the Guards and Prison Service do but the Fire Brigade are a bit unclear about it. Thanks.

Fyi

If anyone has a few mins to read this, it hints to an upcoming recruitment campaign

About half way down the page -

"DFB confirmed it will launch a new recruitment campaign for fire fighters in the coming weeks and a new panel formed to fill future vacancies during the lifetime of the panel."

It's out..

Dfb Facebook & Twitter have a video up over recruiting. It’ll be advertised on Friday . Happy days for all you still interested. Do a pre aptitude test course . Then worry about interview after . Apparently it’s NOT public jobs who are doing the aptitude stages like previous campaigns . Who knows what’ll be on them but I’d imagine it’ll be similar to previous years . 1 or 2 online aptitudes then an aptitude in a office of some sort . Then onto interview. Best of luck

It's 6 months in total roughly. 3 Months fire side and 3 months paramedic out in the Training Centre

Hi all,

Just a quick question, do candidates get paid while on training or during the duration of training? If not, when does the salary commence? Thanks!

Thank you! And do they honor experience from public sector, like HSE once you're qualified? Or would you start from the bottom pay scale?

Does anyone know how much you're paid after training is finished. Like how much altogether per fortnight/month including nights and weekends etc?

Thanks

I thought they were difficult enough. How did you find them?

Definitely harder than the practice tests I did🤣 I wonder how long we'll be waiting for results

The test was quite tough….. have we any timeframe of when they will let us know if we made it to the next stage?

Was that the 300€ one?

So are the online tests just used to cull people?

if we are lucky to pass would it carry any weighting to your final mark?

so is it pass or fail to you get to interview… or does each section of the process count to your final mark?
