I'm still waiting to be called to stage 2 from 2020 😄

@skidmarkoner what was your OOM and county preferences?

skidmarkoner

In regards to EO 2020, PAS have said that they are not expecting to appoint anyone from that panel after 31st August 2022

skidmarkoner

Ye I gave up on this when I seen my oom back in 2020. But it goes to show how it can vary for anyone who hasn't been on a panel before.

Fingers crossed this is my year 😄

mtb_sends

@skidmarkoner My option was for Laois, so I reckon if I get an OOM over 40 or 50 I won't have a chance.

newbie18892

@mtb_sends yes for Dublin

WHIreland

Stranger Things

is this relating to it taking a picture of your face? I’m sure you did do correct. It would say if you didn’t. Don’t worry

Just completed all 3 . Found numerical the hardest much harder than 2020 EO . Passed last time wasn’t happy with OMM but hopefully this time do better . Best of luck to everyone .

SouthWesterly

All done for the 4th time. Hopefully I'll pass again this time round.

What did you answer for the situational test re the angry pensioner? Just out of curiosity as you passed 4 times I've never done it before lol

II honestly can't remember. It's done, I've moved on. Only passed 3 times BTW 😁

Just completed all 3..hard to tell how it went. I was expecting more than 10 questions in the job simulation test.

Ran out of time in maths and verbal reasoning.

Lynnington3

How long did it take people to complete all 3?

mtb_sends

@Lynnington3 Each test is roughly 30 mins long. I just did one a day rather than all in the one go but it finishes tomorrow so put aside roughly 2 hours and you'll have plenty time including the room scans.

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone had applied through Irish and heard back?

WHIreland

Just finished them... glad that is done ✔

Took a few attempts to get the room scans to work for me. Chrome definitely worked better than Edge.

Also had an issue during the live tests where I'd click to move to the next page and get a blank screen. Waiting about 15 seconds, clicking the address bar and pressing enter sorted it every time.

Precious time lost but no big deal overall.

The same with me, did'nt even finished the numerical test! good luck to you too!

skidmarkoner

I never had to scan during the tests only before was this the same for everyone?

mtb_sends

@skidmarkoner Are you talking about the ID scan or room scan?

solidasarock

Gave the practice test for job simulation to some of the guys at work and results are all over the place from low to high.

Feels that one is a real shot in the dark. There is obvious bad answers but then various right solutions

How do you know if the room scan didn't work? Mine never said anything

All done here...really not sure about them. Numerical the easiest. verbal was okay and the situation I've no idea (finished it with 16 mins left so not sure if that's good or bad!!)

skidmarkoner

I did both of them but I thought I read somebody on this mention they had to room scan mid test?

Vologda69

Hooray horrible AON tests werent used. Numerical was very fair....few are text heavy...best to guess those as they eat up time. Answers to SJT were rather rubbish....verbal can fry your brain in parts

Guffy

Finished all 3.... absolutely messed up the situational realised 3/4 of the way through I was answering as a CO. Ah well, always next campaign.

Numerical was very doable, 8/9 correct shouldn't be an issue for anyone. Verbal was OK, had plenty of time to reread the tricky ones. Just ballsed up situational myself.

Nightdrive

All submitted. Think I did ok, no point overthinking anyway. Any vets able to give an idea of timeframes until results?

lisabiscuit

Just finished them this morning. The numerical was definitely better than the 2020 campaign but i always find the clock off putting. Sure we'll see how it goes! Best of luck y'all!
