Executive Officer 2024 Competition (Nationwide)

Does anybody know of an app to help brush up on percentages, ratios etc. Is there a DuoLingo for maths?

but I think for Revenue there are regular exams and maths skills required?

yes, they do have flexi from home and everyone I know has either 3 or 4 days WFH

Interesting the WFH/hybrid stuff, there's not guarantee of remote though I'd imagine.

Also I know well from my current job, where it was once a month in Dublin when I joined. Then two times a month, then once a week. Now twice a week and told we could be made go in 5 days a week whenever they want.

Going to Dublin twice a week is no joke especially if you're not in a neighbouring county. Depends where the position is as well within Dublin. Plenty of jobs these days aren't in Dublin city centre they're further out so maybe more difficult for public transport. All stuff to consider I suppose.

wow that’s amazing conditions!

Hi all just some questions for those who have been through this process or similar before!

I’ve been going through the practice assessments on the public jobs website and wanted to see if you found that these were quite similar to the actual assessments you did or did they differ a lot? I’m finding the questions ok but don’t want to get too comfortable when it could end up being harder.

second question I wanted to confirm is- are you on camera when completing these assessments? I saw that it says some are proctored and some aren’t so just wanted to confirm.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, does someone know what would be the next stage of the competition? I’m in doubt if it’s verbal assessment numerical assessment or both. I forgot to save the booklet about this competion.

So it's usually 3 online tests all issued at once ( u are recorded on camera ) with a verbal test ( like a comprehesion really ) a situational one ( here's a situation, what's the best course of action) and a maths one. The maths u have to pass but it's not usually counted towards your score ( which will determine your oom). The OOM is determined by how u get on with the other 2. They are timed . Then shortly after you will get your OOM and batches of people are called to interview

I did it last time round for eo and each test was timed, and you could do all 3 tests separately( if u wanted) but u could not come back to an individual test . Yeah scan room each time too alright . From memory I think each test was around a half hour

Hi, has anyone any advice on the situational assessment for EO 2024? What are they actually looking for? I know we have to give the best course of action on the choices given. I did the CO exam and interview in 2023 and got a position in Meath starting in a few weeks. But I applied for the EO position just recently as it takes so long to go through the process of assessment, interview and Garda clearance. Is there any websites that can help the EO assessment?

Hi got one too . Never done the written excersise before is it hard
