Temporary Clerical Officer 2024 - Nationwide

If you are a current TCO , do you answer yes or no to the question "Are you a current civil servant ?"

Applied for this 2 days ago, fingers crossed (Cork). Good luck all!

Yes. I got the link as well. Good luck everyone

This is the temporary panel not the permanent

I was offered a temporary contract about 6 years ago in Dept of Education. It was a maternity cover but the initial contract was for only 8 weeks but I would definitely have got 6 months minimum, I think the 8 weeks was more of a probation type thing. I had initially been rang by Dept of Social Protection with a job offer in Mullingar and turned it down as it was too much of a commute for me. I thought I would be taken off the panel but you are allowed decline if the commuting distance is over a certain limit. I ended up re-negotiating my hours with the job I was in at the time (in private sector) and turned down the Dept of Education job. I would say definitely accept a contract as anyone I know that has gone in as a temp to civil service has always ended up permanent. They will extend your contract if you are any way decent worker and then apply for perm when the perm CO campaign comes up.

Sorry for the bump but does anyone have the booklet for this competition? I thought I downloaded it but seemingly not. Would be good just to see it again.

Thank you 😁

No. Nothing yet

May I inquire about a matter regarding my application for the TCO programme for the year 2024? Having completed the initial assessment phase, I am currently awaiting the scheduling of my interview. Regrettably, my mobile phone screen has been damaged, rendering me unable to answer calls. I observed that I had received two calls from an unrecognised number. Could these calls possibly be related to a telephonic interview? Or is it customary for the interview details to be communicated via email or SMS?

thank you bro

From what I've read it's hard to tell.

Looking at last years forum they were in the 60's for Meath by January when calling for interviews so hopefully it won't be too long!

You will be called very quickly, in Dublin they fly through them.

I got 115 on Westmeath panel in 2019 and was still called for interview but took about 4 months, either way you definitely will be called quick enough.
