    Lads traffic will be mental getting in there for 6 or whatever time, if you have the option of getting bus/Luas/dart I would, last thing you won't on your first day is the stress of being late due to traffic or parking!

    Thinking of among the dart to grand canal station and walking down the canal and to the office. Take the earlier one and get me in about 30 minutes early so I can make sure I go the right way :)

    Hi Guys,

    My Girlfriend passed her onlie application and had her assesment day on Tuesday for a Sales Advisor posistion. She thinks it went really well and they said she would find out in 48 hours.

    She didnt hear anything yesterday and today is the end of the 48 hours?!

    Any advice on how long it took them to hear back they had passed this stage?

    Cheers

    Hi j0nny2012
    the process is a lot quicker than earlier the HR process is working much faster so she should expect a call when they said i suppouse it could do no harm after today to ring HR and simply ask. Tell her good luck hope she gets it :)

    Hi all Jboyle our log on went off today for some reason hant come back on and a few people said the same thing happened to them Ciaran i drove tonight because it was later in future i will be using bus did the train work out for you in the end i checked the bus timetables and for saturday and sunday shifts no buses before 8 o clock so if it a seven o clock start those days that will have to be worked out somehow. As for the attire what ever you normally wear is okay if you want to wear a suit wear a suit. Only thing not allowed are rugby shirts or tops with messages or logo's that could be offensive. jeans and the like acceptable they want everyone to be comfortable. the heating was on in the building and with that many people there got very warm

    Damn! Only saw this part now. Gonna have to invest in a new wardrobe!

    It varies. I was contacted next day. Someone else was contacted three hours after their assessment.. Someone else several days later.

    They're up to their eyes getting everything set up, so don't stress they'll be in touch.
