    If one is asked for supporting documentaion and to submit garda vetting does that mean they have passed?

    I got the email to send support documents before I took the retest so I doubt it. I sent them forward anyway as it’s still a deadline you don’t want to miss.

    This might not be the right way to ask

    Those who didnt pass did you get an email to submit garda vetting and those who passed did you get it aswell ?

    Hanging on the knife edging is starting to bug me

    Are you also waiting to hear back about results ? The only email I’ve received is the one asking to provide the supporting documentation.

    Hopefully we find out today before the weekend 😭😭

    Got my date about an hour ago for the fitness test for July 12th. I’m absolutely bricking it for the Chester step test. I failed it back in November last year. Hopefully all goes well this time, fingers crossed 🙈

    I can imagine but I'm sure you have prepared for it this time. From your experience how long were you waiting for the eligibility sift? And how long after interview did you do the fitness test?

    hey @bJWXNIXWNXOW! I was not waiting long at all, maybe two weeks.. that was last April for me so can’t remember exactly! My interview was mid April and my fitness test is in July 24! However I had the chance back in Nov 23 after going through two rounds of recommendation to proceed. I was not high enough on the panel first time around therefore that did not proceed.

    Best of luck this time @emmaphelan01, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you. I also got my date for the fitness test. Wondering if you know what the pass mark is for the step test or is there a certain level you have to get to keeping the HR under 80% of max? I’ve been trying to get the information online but have had no luck so far as it seems to differ from organisation to organisation. Thanks

    @joconair I’m honestly not too sure, it’s very hard to get any information about it. Last time I did it I got to Stage 3 and I was told my HR was too high and that I couldn’t continue. Although I felt fine and able to continue.. I was never told how high my HR got and I was also too upset at the time to ask. However the video on YouTube from the link they attached in the email, the guy’s HR was at 140 after the 10 minutes.
