thank you and congrats to you too!

Hi guys, does anyone have any experience of going into civil service that had previous public sector experience (5 years as a CO in local authority), would this reflect in the amount of salary offered. The info booklet states something about the rate of pay dependent on being a current member of the public or civil service but nothing about previous experience.

I did get my official offer last Thursday so waiting on word for my start date and location. Will keep everyone updated:)

VanBer · 23-10-2023 6:57pm

Yes if you discuss with HR of new position, most Civil Service departments will let you transfer your service; point on scale and increments but only if you are going from CO to CO as far as I know,

zagnut · 25-10-2023 9:21am

Anyone know what OOM they are on in Laois?

SeasonsOfLife · 25-10-2023 9:53am

Hi,

Does anyone know what OOM they are on in Galway or Roscommon? Thanks.

acar321 · 25-10-2023 11:10am

Got my start date for a months time :) still waiting on exact location!

Cmur77 · 25-10-2023 12:24pm

Hi all, does anyone know what OOM they've reached in Offaly? Thanks

Lollipop95 · 26-10-2023 8:10pm

For those who have applied for HSE clerical officer - is anyone else still waiting for their occupational health preclearance to be processed? I submitted mine two weeks ago, followed up with OH team a couple of days ago and they said it’s currently being processed. Anyone have any idea what’s the average time length? Hoping I get my contract soon!

I emailed PAS 10 days ago and they advised 14 candidates from Roscommon called for stage 2 interview so far.

foxinIreland · 27-10-2023 3:21pm

Does anyone know what OOM they are on in Dublin ? I did my vetting almost 2 weeks ago and I am still waiting 😱😱😱

pip1414 · 27-10-2023 3:44pm

PAS have been in contact with me regarding clearance. However, I need extra security clearance in addition to Garda Vetting - how long will this take? The email said it could take up to 16 weeks, which is February, then an offer would actually be made then, and I would give my two months notice at my current job, so making my start date in April (nearly a whole YEAR after I applied for the job). Is this a likely timeline, would I be able to start before this additional clearance is obtained?

VolkIreland · 27-10-2023 6:33pm

Finally got an email for beginning of clearance for Limerick.

Wondering how long it will take from here on out (should have all the stuff sent in by Wednesday). Possibly lined up for another job and wondering if it's even worth my while accepting the temp job now.

Its just taken so long to get to this point for Limerick that I'm wondering will I be waiting another 3 months now 🤣

Twoelles · 28-10-2023 8:25pm

Is anyone else getting this error when trying to access public jobs

ThePenultimateWarrior · 28-10-2023 8:29pm

Thanks, I'll try and figure out whats wrong

funnydoggy · 28-10-2023 10:37pm

Quick one - does anyone know if there'll be a competition for 2024?

foxinIreland · 30-10-2023 2:53pm

Does anyone know what OOM they are on in Dublin. My vetting was done yesterday. Thanks 🙏🏻

Adventurerguy · 01-11-2023 8:29pm

Just wondering has anyone got a role from this panel for Co. Meath? My OOM for Meath has been reached and I’m going through clearance now and I’m wondering what dept I might assigned to in Co. Meath? Does anyone know?

Paddydoyle83 · 02-11-2023 1:36pm

frances5420 · 02-11-2023 3:13pm

Fi72 · 02-11-2023 4:48pm

BalboBiggins · 02-11-2023 4:59pm

For people who are starting soon, have they confirmed if you can wfh a set amount of days or is it fully on site until probation is passed?

foxinIreland · 02-11-2023 5:24pm

Pamelabeasley · 02-11-2023 10:29pm

I am 88 for Limerick (only one preference for the city) and the final day for sending anything in was yesterday.

Now I just have to wait even longer, I guess 🤷‍♀️

Why do you need to give current job 2mths notice.? It seems excessive

ThePenultimateWarrior · 09-11-2023 2:07pm

Just got assigned to the Payments Section of my local Department of Social Protection. Anyone know anything about this section? Is it public facing? Or back stage processing applications/payments? Any idea about WFH, Flexi, etc.?

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121316094#Comment_121316094

I believe Revenue are working in the office FT 5 days a week while training. No WFH yet and could be 6-12 months away at a guess if even as of the vibe at present.

tlcfitz · 13-11-2023 11:16am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121353297#Comment_121353297

I heard Revenue are one of the best for WFH options (4 days at home, 1 day in office) but obviously initially you have to work full time in office when getting trained in. My neighbour recently started in Dept of Education in Athlone and has to work 6 months FT in office but once that's done she only has to do 2 days in office and 3 days WFH which is great.

shmeee · 13-11-2023 11:54am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121361946#Comment_121361946

Yes, Revenue have the best WFH model I believe. 1 day per week in office with some departments. But to answer the question, I know people recently hired into Revenue and it's FT in the office and they've not been given a date to start WFH and could be up to 12 months away. Hopeful of a review in maybe 6 months.

sswathi · 14-11-2023 5:41pm

Hello All,

I was interviewed by the Longford Westmeath Education Training Board a week before for their permanent clerical officer position. Today, I got the email that I failed, but I am placed in the temporary clerical officer panel, valid till March 2024. Currently, I am working part-time permanently. Is it worthwhile to accept this? Will being on that panel will be of any advantage to me? Can I reject the offer after agreeing to be placed in the temporary CO panel? Any help or advice, please?

Thanks

@sswathi You can turn down the offer when/if it comes around. ETB's typically extend contracts if your performance is satisfactory. Also, when it comes to applying for the PAS competitions it's very beneficial to have previous/current service.

Dizzyrascal88 · 14-11-2023 11:24pm

Hi Jack

What location is this for please. Could you give me tips on the interview?

Thanks

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121368232#Comment_121368232

@furrybones thanks alot for the reply. Still hunting for a permanent CO position. Not sure if quitting current part time job is worthwhile for a TCO in ETB if they ever offer me.

littleflamingo · 15-11-2023 8:09pm

Hi all hope it’s OK to post here.

I applied for clerical officer panel for Galway county council in the summer, I had interview in October and placed 10 on panel. I got an email with an ‘offer’ last week pending references and medical.

I’ve sent over details for my references. Has anyone gone through process with the medical, how long does it take to get a slot? I have 6 weeks notice at my current role (which I stated on my application), at what point do I give my notice? Should I ask county council when is best for me to hand in my notice? I’m happy to do it now and have a few weeks off in interim but obviously will wait until medical and references go OK.

im very nervous and really want this opportunity.

Hi - I went through the same process with another local authority. The medical was straightforward. I have a weird issue with my abdomen which only arose in recent years. During the medical for the council, the Dr norlticed it, so I was glad I was able to say, 'Yes, I've looked into that and here's the explanation.' The council official who contacted me about the job was clear at every step of the way on whether I should hand in my notice at my current job. I'm sure that if you email your contact and remind them of your period of notice, they will be able to give you a steer. Best of luck in your new job!

Paddydoyle83 · 16-11-2023 12:07pm

I'm on the meath panel too .. can I ask what your OOM was if you don't mind

pb4 · 16-11-2023 8:44pm

Hi, just wondering how long after garda clearance. I've had clearance nearly a month ago now. Should be fine, did it last year for hse. Started hse but don't really like it tbh & it's shift work so hoping for nicer hours & a less frantic job. Thanks.

VolkIreland · 16-11-2023 11:07pm

Assigned to Revenue in Limerick. Anyone any information on the role?

Any ideas how long it may be until my start date?

Cmur77 · 21-11-2023 3:12pm

Hey all, just wondering how long usually after garda vetting is completed is it expected to hear about the next step or be told about the role we are considered for? Its been 9 days for me since garda vetting was completed.
