That's great, thanks for that. Yes will let ya know if I get a reply on Monday - don't want to give the impression that Im obsessive or anything (talking to an online person may not cut it for them!) so I will have to word it quite carefully. Thanks again for that

david-d

haha when you say "dont want to give the impression im obsessive or anything" i immediately assume your obsessive,

if you weren't obsessive that thought wouldn't enter your head.

Turn up to there offices after a little light reconnaissance and show them how "not" obsessed you "aren't" :-p

I got through in 97th place, im up wednesday at 9am for the next round, anyone else from here up at the same time?

D Trent

i'm on Wednesday at 12 noon. just out of interest is there anyone else on this who got through to stage 2 that is from outside dublin? i'm from galway myself.

djor88

I'm in Wednesday at 2pm, good luck to everyone. Any word or ideas on how many they'll take through to the next stage after this from the 250 and what the next stage would entail? Interview/fitness tests? Cheers!

Arruabarrena

It's interview after this week.

Kablamo!

I'm tomorrow at 9am- very very nervous.

MRTULES

Good luck all.
I am just wondering is there still the possibility to do the simulation and verbal Reasoning practice tests online?
Thanks

Sf191

How many are they taking from this stage does anybody know

Kablamo!

I'm pleased to have it done now. Wasn't as bad as I imagined, there's not much time to panic. I was the only girl in a room full of men which also helped distract me- stuck out like a sore thumb! Best of luck to tomorrow's crowd.

spotted you how did you find it today?
i thought it went well , at one point i found myself counting my fingers and toes in one of the assessments

Dave087

How was the typing test? Was it pretty much the same as the online assessment?

dont think its fair to say, and the mods may delete it anyway.

Arruabarrena

Results will be issued nxt week, interviews will be 2-3 weeks after that (subject to change)

Rob32

Anyone from here doing it this morning?

djor88

Did it yesterday, think it went fairly well only time will tell, they seem to be moving fairly fast with things up to here so I'd imagine it'll be quick enough for results and the next stage for those lucky enough

Sf191

Taught some of the place names and family names in the audio were tough . Any idea on how many they take through

djor88

If i was to guess at how many they'll take through to the next stage, considering there's 240-250 left now, and there's 28 jobs. I'd imagine for 28 jobs they'd have a panel of maybe 40/50 to be safe. I'd say they'll interview 3 or 4 people for each job, which would mean between 100-120 people maybe at interview.

I'd say it'll go from 250 to 120-150 for stage 3.

Again, i'm just guestimating here, haven't heard anything from any official sources but these numbers seem reasonable. Get rid of 100 or so through the aptitudes. Any other thoughts?

Arruabarrena

For the firefighter they brought forward 103 people for 25 jobs so I expect the numbers to be similar.

Sf191

Thanks for the help . Fingers crossed

thatboy

I heard today they may make a large enough panel due to retirements coming up..................thats pure rumour though

Kablamo!

Any females at any of the other sessions??

Sf191

5 females in mine today I think

D Trent

I sat the 12-2.30pm examination and out of 40 desks there were 33 candidates, 5 candidates were female

Sf191

Ye the same group as myself

GoProGaming

today is the last day of assessments. we can all be nervous for the results together from this evening.

Sf191

Any idea when they'll be out

Arruabarrena

Next week

DUBLINHITMAN
