Hi Belkin1975,

I think its in the link in the email you got. I havent done it yet.



Anyone who had done the interview already. What questions / type of questions were you asked? Thanks.

Thanks, I got it already. A bit nervous about the interview, it's a long time since I did one. Hopefully I will get some insight from others who had their interview

Hopefully you will get called up.

Hi guys,

i had my interview for Dublin a while ago, it was sooo short! they just asked details confirming stuff I'd answered online for them - like was I available to start on the 1st of June as I'd answered on the questionnaire. Then they asked was there anything else I'd like to mention?

Good luck to everyone who has interviews

Just wondering tho, I heard that I'd been successful at interview like a month ago but haven't heard any word since! Has anyone actually been given a job yet? in particular in Dublin?

Thanks

Hi, I'd my interview today. It was all very informal. Had to fill out a Garda vetting form. Then I was called in to a room and I was just asked about jobs I had in the past and what computer experience I had. That was it. I was told I will get an e-mail next week to see if I was successful. Then I will be put on a panel and whenever a job comes up within the next year be it to fill in for summer hols or maternity (which would be alot better) I'll get a call.

So good luck to anyone going for an interview.

Good luck, if it was anything like mine it wasn't like an interview, just clarifying what you filled out on your questionnaire!

It'll be fine, I had two lovely people 'interview' me for 5 minutes - as was said before it was just confirming your details from the CV.

Just make sure you bring all your documentation with you - application, health form, passport-sized photo, references and ID and you'll be fine.

Yes of course you should wait: it could be months before any actual vacancies arise.

Yes, they did. They asked again and wrote it on another form (even though you have to fill that in on the questionnaire AND the interview form!). Despite this, I was offered a contract starting before my stated date :rolleyes: but hey, what can ya do?!
