    really is a drawn out process. It's crazy to think they let it go this far and then say your unsuitable. They should take it account people are planning ahead for this. But sure it is what it is. Hope everyone on the October intake on this gets called. Fingers crossed

    Have you been signed off to and been waiting a year?

    No I wouldn’t think so. After I met the local sgt and all I kinda didn’t ring or hear of anything for months as I was busy so it didn’t effect me but it’s gone on too long now and I dunno where I stand with vetting

    Have you rang them recently to see if vetting has come back or any issues? Really long process this hopefully your file is all clear now

    I’m ringing daily pal. They’re giving me the awaiting sign off which means vetting is incomplete speech. I’m not sure whether my vetting is incomplete cos it isn’t signed off or the vetting itself isn’t done.

    Same I spent a few years in the UK and I was told by HR last week that its not the gardai delaying my application its the British authorities as they are in no hurry what's so ever to send info across, also remember there is alot of smaller regional police forces so if your family is spread around they will have to Contact each one separately.
    And when did you apply ?

    Doubt there is that many. From what I heard they struggled to get numbers for July intake. Know a lad that got a weeks notice to start and only passed his fitness a week previous


  • Registered Users Posts: 25 Alkar24


    I thought it was. But someone on here said they heard it was 184.


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭Eddyrio5


    If they are delaying offers until next week they may be short enough numbers otherwise surely they would send out the first batch of offers to try and give the months notice


  • Registered Users Posts: 25 Alkar24


    Yep I agree that's my thinking to but listen I'm confused by this process at times so I'm just going sit back and wait


  • Registered Users Posts: 25 deiselad17


    I can't imagine theyre struggling to fill the positions if I'm being honest with the backlog of people that is there. Offers will definitely be this Friday and more next week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 55 ✭✭Crowlers


    They have been stuck and struggling last 2 intakes due to vetting and people failing PCT's. Every intake is 200 people so whe they have first 100 sorted thwy will be given 1st round offers and then go with the 2nd 100. if they have 100 already offers be out this Friday but sounds like they might be stuck again so if thats the case they will have them out mid to enfd of next week. Vetting for good few seems to be done so they will sign off a load when offers are due to go out. Best of luck to everyone waiting is frustrating but be worth it. if you dont get 1st round offer dont worry stay positive for 2nd round offer. I personaly think myself 1st round offers could be out this Friday. I think they should have 100 ready to go sounds like a lot have vetting and PCT done. Maybe they could have a slight struggle with 2nd round offers that seems to be the one that they give short notice to people plus there are more physicals happening over next 2 saturdays

    Fingers crossed they will send some offers out this week so! Be great

    Rang HRM today. Vetting still outstanding. Said offers will be out in the next couple of weeks. I asked if I should forget about it seeing as vetting is still outstanding... he said no, it could come back anytime. Hard to know what to make of that :-/


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,311 ✭✭✭mrDerek


    surprised at the couple of weeks response considering people have been told next week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10 Ruffruff


    Sounds like no offers out this week, more waiting😀, nerves will be wrecked😶


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭Eddyrio5
