    Rather than hijack the August thread, here's a new thread for people with a September start date.
    I got the call today. Absolutely buzzing and can't wait to get started. Obviously a little apprehensive but it will be a bunch of people in the same boat as me so it's all good.

    Don't feel apprehensive just yet, celebrate this weekend! Whole squad that gets in will be in the same boat, and you'll all do fine =)

    When did you submit your forms ruffle?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36 Ruffle


    Yes I rang up - I had them posted around 10th july I think, just waiting now

    I'm sitting at AC 73-75 and I had my vetting forms posted on the 21st June


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36 Ruffle


    Fingers crossed you get a call


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 508 ✭✭✭.S.


    My vetting must be outstanding. Think if I were to get a call today it would've came already. Surprised there isn't a few more boardies though

    Ivan I take it you haven't had your medical or anything yet then? I'm low 70s and posted vetting early June, have my medical in the next couple of weeks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 119 ✭✭IvanT1984


    I'm debating the credit check route to see if it was processed but it would mean me paying £15 for it as I already used up my free month about 4 years ago, Vetting for me may be a little drawn out as I did not have access to some information at the time I submitted it but I did provide evidence of having been successfully vetted before for different organisations

    I've completed everything had my medical over 2 weeks ago now and a letter saying that I meet the criteria with adjustment

    I had my medical 2 weeks ago angle was hoping I'd be getting call this week, my betting forms must have been delayed in getting to me as it seems you all had yours much earlier


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33 tino77


    That it for calls then this time round? If so time to get on with life the next few weeks then!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 508 ✭✭✭.S.


    Reckon so =( might be the odd call but I've resigned myself to waiting for the next lot

    Same!!

    Chins up everyone tho...next calls won't be long. A month goes by fast.

    And sure look at the scorching summer were having, that'll take our minds off it!!

    Got the call this morning! Still in shock that's it's finally happened! Was planning on asking could I defer, as I was going to be on honeymoon over the induction weekend, but decided to change our flights instead, didn't want to risk something happening and not getting in the next batch! So am over the moon that I'll be starting in September! Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting for this batch or the next!

    Doubt stating dates on a public forum is wise


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36 Ruffle


    Sorry should have said private mail....didn't mean for dates to be posted publicly. I'm out of the country over the next while which is why I'm asking :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 47 820sox

    Barely had a chance for it to sink in! What does it involve? Assuming suited and booted in required?

    It makes the whole thing so real now. It will be good to meet everyone though and hopefully get a better idea of what to expect in Sept! How about you?

    Did you get the induction pack yet? There are some things you need to bring with you which it mentions eg birth cert etc and a couple of forms they sent out in the pack. If you need the list of things let me know. Also "smart business attire" for the weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33 tino77


    I did, yeah. All very rushed! Looking forward to it!
