    They should send out an email saying if you passed or failed so cant really say if he failed or not, did you get any word back yet?

    I didnt receive any email yet saying I failed or I passed.. don't know to be honest.. I would like to call but more time I have to prepare the running better is so.. don't know what to do really.. Maybe it's complicated cause I am a foreigner woman?

    Hey lads, anybody going for RDF here? Handed my application in for the most recent opening, but they've been worryingly quiet (even by DF standards) even though the closing date was supposed to be 3 weeks ago. Any idea what's going on?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 Armyman12


    Been talking to a sgt up in collins barracks,...said they've met the quota for September recruits so not sure what will happen to those still waiting on fitness and interview

    Collins barracks down in Cork?
    Also I wrote to them last week to see whats happening and they just replied with "Due to the volume of applications we are processing the results at present and will be in contact with you in the coming weeks."
    Sounds like some old thing they are sending to everyone lol
