    Current scale is €23,338 not €24,039???

    With the new scale , I was working for the last 3years there do I go up a scale or skip one

    Thanks

    If your on say point 3. You should be moved to point 3 of new scale on the 1 January. If your due an increment increase two week later, you will be moved up to point 4 of the new scale as you would normally

    I was offered a job in revenue in Nenagh but they let me defer it was it was 80kms away. Next on list for chosen region.

    I'm next on the list in my region. The person ahead of me is waiting on vetting.
    I won't have to do it as I'm a current civil servant.

    Had stage 2 aptitude test yesterday.. everything went well besides the numerical. Literally froze in that part worried I didn’t pass it. Didn’t even get as far as the last two questions. Kicking myself that I didn’t watch the time more. How many questions would I have to get right to pass the numerical?

    I wouldn't worry...I was sure I'd failed the numerical coming out of the supervised tests (even though I did a lot of preparation) but in fact I passed and shot up the OOM in both regions. Most people thought the numerical was awful, and much harder than the sample tests, and yet they passed. As far as I am aware it won't impact you negatively if you didn't get them all done but someone might correct me if I'm wrong.

    I phoned PAS and asked to be put through to the clearance department. When you get through to Clearance they will ask you for which counties you are applying and they will then forward you on to the relevant person for your chosen counties who will inform you as to your status

    I answered 18/21 questions. My score was the equivalent of having gotten 17 of those 18 questions correct. My ranking went way up after all the tests.

    Far better to make sure you have everything correct imo than rushing down aload of wrong answers

    Well done, congratulations. :)

    Had my interview this morning, interviewers were lovely but genuinely feel like I screwed up. I prepped well but I feel like I did poorly answering about the first two competencies. Gut feeling is I failed, just have to hope they're lenient with marking.

    I felt the exact same after my interview for the 2016 campaign! the interviewers were lovely and i messed up on some questions and they had to spoon feed me the answers. I think its done on a score so if you answer other questions well it will balance out I was surprised when i found out i passed :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 189 ✭✭SB1982


    So Galway, Tipperary, Louth, Kildare, Kerry and I think Cork are all on the move. Anyone heard of anyone in Limerick being appointed yet? When I called last week no one had been offered anything in Limerick yet but maybe it has started moving now too?

    Thank you. No problem, i was in the top 5.

    Would accepting a job on this panel remove me from panels of other campaigns?

    If you had separate campaigns, no.
    If it's other areas on the same campaign, yes.
