PSNI Recruitment - Stage 4.5 - The Wait

Medical passed, waiting time for me too!

Possibly talking rubbish but highlight this with your local councillor/media.

If some of the figures ive seen bandied about those forums are even anywhere near what it costs to put someone through all the stages, then it is truly an obscene waste of money to process someone right to the last hurdle and then drop them like a stone.

Here here! Especially getting two on hold letters and then give you hope in April rush you through all the stages to come to this is totally unbelievable and cruel.

Just a thought from someone in Garnerville who was in your position ... Wait until you have official confirmation one way or the other. Things change on a daily basis here and no one knows what's happening from one day to the next. Rumours swirl round here about everything but wait for hard facts, things can change very quickly. The amount of progression and non progression letters I had was unreal but got there eventually. Keep your heads up!

Hello Everyone! I'm from the 1509 campaign and sent my vetting off about 2/3 weeks ago now. Does anyone have any rough idea as to how long until I hear if I passed it or get dates for medical PCA etc..? Anticipation is killing me - we recently just completed our online learning

Hey Robyn O, Id love to know this info too!!!

Just rang recruitment done me medical near 3 weeks ago.

they confirmed I have passed the vetting and SMT. So least I know all lights are green and just need to wait for the call.

Will it be those who have passed all stages or in merit order?

Has anyone heard anything regarding dates? I should be in the first squad going by merit score and I have all stages passed. Rang vetting last week and they couldn't confirm anything regarding start dates or induction weekend dates. If anyone has heard anything could they pm me if they don't want to post publicaly. I'm just worried about dates because of two family weddings and a holiday. Thanks

I'd be interested to know this too, when I rang recruitment they said they can't give out merit scores anymore.

i just wish they would call or send out "Dear John" letters to 1405 campaigners, whether it be good or bad news...Its the unknown at this stage, added with the fact, i'm avoiding booking holidays which isnt going down to well in the house

How long has it been since the last calls?

20 June and 1 July where the last set of calls (2 sets) for intake in September.

Was that for a September intake? I thought it was August Intake. As normally calls are 4-6 weeks before start.

Haha correct August...we aren't even in September yet...shows where my head is

I also fall into this catagory...Maybe we should start a new thread for 1509 guys who have passed all stages and are waiting for the call.

Good idea! Make a list, lists are good.

Scored 73% done my medical a month ago..

Rang near 2 weeks ago and vetting and Smt passed so been in the waiting bunch for about 2 weeks lol

Still waiting for my vetting and scored 67% but I've my letter basically written and ready to be handed to my least favourite boss!

Hope you haven't dated it lol. I done the vetting I say near 3 months ago... closer you get the longer the wait seems to be

Do intakes tend to start mid month?

When out on the MTB last night I got thinking about injuries. Hypothetically speaking if you were to injure yourself between now and GV or during GV.. What happens?

Maybe I should bubblewrap myself now?

I imagine if it was during you would be ok, probably be backsquadded.
Before you go in is another question :eek:

Maybe best sticking to chess and monopoly lol

Thought id try to start up this thread for those of us waiting on the call! I take it this is the case for most people on here?

still waiting eagerly - hoping for call this month but who knows!!!!! Hope December intake going ahead but will know more after 20th

@Robyn - where did you ask about your vetting? Did you do vetting in May/June?

Guess I can join in here now!

@Robyn I think I'm in the same boat as yourself all stages passed and last time I checked vetting still processing.

Yip same here Bunsen I feel your pain!
