I got a call from a Dublin number but the first call was silence and the second holding music which is odd I have to say.
What’s the chances of cold calls in same week EI are making calls!! Frustrating.

I’m really not sure who it is...no voicemail though.

If anyone can share the number that called them I would appreciate it from a guidance point of view.

My call was from 01 485 xxxx

Aer Lingus and Dublin airport numbers are generally with an 886 or 816 prefix. They'd have left a voicemail or email if they failed to get you on the phone I'd say.

I would have thought so too, but I am most surprised in the week of EI calling the telemarketing empty heads are on to me at the same time. Coincidental perhaps..

Yep. It was an 886 number. I got an email to confirm the details afterwards. It’ll take time for them to get around so be patient.

Godspeed!

It's a killer! Just sit tight.

Ah feck so it was those blasted cold callers harassing me!!! Argh.

Thanks for the update. At least I have a definitive answer.

Fingers crossed still.

EIHopeful

Can anyone on here that got a call let us know what letter your surname begins with?! Trying to figure out if it's going strictly alphabetically.

EIHopeful

Anyone hear of calls still going out today? Visualising my application going through the shredder with a load of people standing around laughing!

Haha yeah I'd say they get some laugh of those video interviews alright, all gathered around a desktop somewhere saying "Paul! Paul!! come here! ... look at what this dope is saying haha"

I've lost hope at this point TBH

Well done to everyone that has gotten through to the next stages

youoweme

Have to agree with Sarah,

Assessments to start in 13 days, if you havent heard by now i think we can expect a big "Thank you and good luck for the future."

Congratulations to anyone who got through.

So, anyone know of any other cool/interesting/not desk based jobs going?

You shouldn't give up until you receive a no thanks email. Somebody has to be the very last person they call before the emails are sent out, that might be you! Until then, keep doing the online practice compass exams and read up on group exercises.

Thats IF they even send no thanks emails. I've been through enough of these situations that I know when to give up and move on!

Got call yesterday email today. Good Luck all of you waiting still.

It looks like a person got a call yesterday hopefully we will still be in the running

Maximus747

My name would be at the bottom of the list and I’ve heard nothing yet. However I doubt it’s done alphabetically. I’ve run large scale recruitment operations before and I work for a large company. We never really do alphabetical for this sort of thing.

I emailed AL who told me I’d have a response “very soon” and that was last week.

I have been talking to a senior member of AL who is looking to get some info on the current status of the calls and interviews however it seems to be just very busy because of the volume of calls and interest.

I wouldn’t lose hope just yet. People won’t be able to make the day etc. so more people will be called up closer to the time I’m sure.

EIHopeful

Thanks for that Maximus! Restoring a bit of faith for us. The heart is saying no but the head would tend to agree with you with regards the sheer volume they're dealing with. It would appear that they have made no calls today which could be a break day to catch up on reviewing assessments and general admin that goes with it. They were off last Thursday too so calls may still go out tomorrow I feel.

km2806

Haven't heard anything yet either! Applied for this a few years ago and didn't hear back until the 6th or 7th of July and i got called for an interview then.

EIHopeful

Anyone get an email / call today?

Yes, I would't lose hope though. People are getting positive phone calls even after others are receiving rejection emails.

haha it was more so at least i knew i wouldn't have to be sitting here clueless. I hate it when companies don't bother to notify people if they didn't pass

EIHopeful

Anyone hear anything today?

ChikiChiki

Still no call or rejection letter. At this point you would think that they are still going through applications.
