Hey grad10! I had the aptitude test for the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service a few weeks ago. Like most of the aptitude tests its hard to know if it went well or went bad! Anyway, I got the letter 3 weeks later and didn't pass it! Which Ambulance Service are you doing it for? NI or ROI?

NIAS! Had my speed typing 2 weeks ago and interview this week. Sorry you didn't make it this time! Keep trying! I'm trying to cram everything in at the mo! Everything's so rushed all of a sudden after not hearing anything for so long!

grad10

From the north, they said interviews were ongoing until 13th June so I will hear from HR a week or two after that! If successful training commences late July/ early August!

Great job! I think they said at the aptitude test that over 400 applied and they were taking the best 200 and then shortlisting them again at interview! Do you know how many jobs are available? I forgot to ask them at the test! All the best anyway and hope its good news! Keep me updated!!

You never know, and they might have a reserve list too! I've been offered another job aswell subject to medical so I'll have to decide between the two! So I might end up freeing up a wee space for you - not 100% sure what I'm gonna do yet! So keep positive

I've actually been offered another job (also subject to medical) too so as much as I wud have liked this one it isn't the end of the world-prob would have ended up with a tough decision so at least its taken that out of my hands

Good luck with ur decision!

Thanks I need it - pro's and cons to both jobs really don't know what to do! Had a look to see what other threads you've been posting in and I see 'the other job' is the same for both of us! May end up working together one day after all!

If anyone is interested in making a move to the UK the North West Ambulance Service and the London Ambulance Service are looking for Emergency Medical Dispatchers.

Hello Folks,

I received an email today from the hse, here it goes

"The HSE National Recruitment Service are launching from 8th October 2012 a national supplementary recruitment campaign for Emergency Medical Controller. Please note this new campaign will be advertised as Emergency Medical Dispatcher.

The purpose of this campaign is to supplement the existing national panel for Emergency Medical Controller which was created in 2009"

Unfortunately there is some personal details that I do not wish to post, but here is the rest of it,

"Lastly, if any of your colleagues missed out on the opportunity to participate in the last recruitment campaign, you may wish to inform them that they can apply now on www.publicjobs.ie.

Full details including the “Additional Campaign Information” is also available on:
http://www.hse.ie/eng/staff/Jobs/Job_Search/Patient_and_Client_Care/

You may need to wait til Monday until this campaign and info are up on the Publicjobs/HSE websites


Good luck to you,

Sisu

The post on public jobs.
Very short application window and you must have your full C1 and D1 licences. It'll be interesting to see hw this one goes.

ETA: They are also advertising a different role of Emergency Call Taker which doesn't seem to require any driving licences so if that's holding you back, perhaps you can use this to get your foot in the door.

So are these jobs only for ballyshannon or Dublin after training is complete?

Or the next government is elected, or the HSE is disbanded.....
For now, it looks that way from the pdf of the advert.

How does it work?

I mean, will everyone who applies for the post get a chance to do the tests and then the best get short listed?
