    Any of you guys having bother contacting the number provided to schedule your interview date? I've been phoning throughout the day and it keeps ringing out. Was able to leave a message though. Will try again tomorrow.

    Does anyone on this have the applicant guidance and shift pattern downloaded from the initial application phase. I was an ejit and didn't download it.  If they do could they please PM me a copy of it. Thanks very much in advance!

    Hi Folks. Anyone have their interview yet? How you feel it went?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Had mine last week there and it felt like it went really well but I guess you just never know how the panel felt it went.


  • Registered Users Posts: 201 ✭✭letsdoit2013


    Had mine last week there and it felt like it went really well but I guess you just never know how the panel felt it went.

    Have mine at the end of the month how did you find the testing before hand on the day was it similar to the PSNI'S IST?


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    The testing is similar to what you completed before. I was kind of hoping interviews would be finished this week but obviously not, the waiting to hear is killing me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Wonkyempresso I was hoping they were going to be finished this week, given that they said at interview they were hoping to inform those who had been successful at getting a second interview within a week or 2.

    anyone who has had an interview recently got an update on when they expect to be able to notify candidates who are successful for a second interview?


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 Kalel90


    Hi,

    I was told today it would be roughly within the next 2-3 weeks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 Kalel90


    Hi

    Anyone heard anything yet or still to do an interview?


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Think Letsdoit2013 is the last person to get interviewed. He said he had his interview at the end of the month so I would imagine that it is this week. Kind of hoping to hear one way or the other end of this week start of next. Seems that long since I had my interview! Nearly 3 weeks


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 Kalel90


    Thanks. Yes hopefully this week. Still seems to be a lot quicker than the psni process!


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Yea I have friends that had to wait for ages from the assessment centre until they got their fitness test. I'm sure the next steps in the Harbour Police process will be quicker as they will have to get the new recruits into a college class.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    I hope it's soon enough, the wait is killing me!


  • Registered Users Posts: 201 ✭✭letsdoit2013


    Had my interview today guys not sure how it went to be honest. They were interviewing all day I was told.

    Outcome within 2 weeks aparantly. Good luck everyone!


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    They must be interviewing a lot of people,  All for 3 jobs too. At least we should all know one way or the other soon enough. Good luck folks

    anyone heard anything as of yet? Meant to be this week to hear so hopefully someone will be getting good news of a second interview soon if they haven't heard already.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 Kalel90


    Nothing yet either. Hopefully we all know either way by the end of the week!


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Nothing yet for me either. Hopefully it's this week either way, the waiting is killing me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Well has anyone heard anything today? I thought we would know either way by today at the latest but starting to look unlikely.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Nothing yet wonky. I was told we would know today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 201 ✭✭letsdoit2013


    Nothing my end

    Looks like it will be next week then.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Anyone been in contact with the HR to see if a decision has been made yet and if you haven't heard it means your unsuccessful?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    I contacted them today and they said that the girl in HR had been off a day and they were potentially behind schedule a bit.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Thanks, you don't want to pester them but when you get told you will hear one way or the other by a date and then hear nothing its quite frustrating.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Yeah I don't want to be pestering either but as you say, it is quite frustrating to be told something and then hear nothing at all.

    Must be more than just a bit behind, I was kind of expecting to hear something yesterday. Wonder how they are planning to fit everything in as they still are planning a second interview, then medical and vetting before they get the candidates into a training squad.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    I think I was being slightly optimistic when I said they were behind schedule. Hopefully they have decided to get rid of the second interview and are just going to send out offers, although I highly doubt it. I keep panicking every time I get an alert for my emails.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Yea you would think they will have to give it a miss on the second interviews. Though hope they still let us know if we didn't make the cut. Yea every time the email goes a small part of me thinks "this is it" then its eBay or something silly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Yeah I would like to think that no matter what they decide to do that they let us either way.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Wonder if it will be a Friday special like every other time they have got in contact after the next stage. Thought someone would have surely heard something by now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    I spoke to the girl in HR yesterday and she said that they have not sent out any emails yet due to "operational reasons", whatever they mean by that. They are hoping to send them out mid week next week and it is still their intention to have a second set of interviews.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    That's good then at least that gives us some sort of time line. Will have to forget about it till then. Cheers for the info!


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Has anybody heard anything yet?


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Nope nothing as yet though they really like to drag this interview part out. Wonder how many will get invited for a second interview. I thought they initially interviewed quite a lot of people compared to what other recruitment campaigns seemed to be like.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 Kalel90


    Nothing yet here either!

  • Registered Users Posts: 201 ✭✭letsdoit2013


    nothing my end


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    anyone been in contact with HR lately maybe had to adjust the time frame again?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Haven't been in contact since last week but I was considering phoning later to see what's happening.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Yea best to leave it until probably around 4, then after that I would say its past midweek. Hopefully whoever is successful in a second interview wont have to wait this long for feedback on it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 wonkyempresso


    Just checked my emails and I received an email for a 2nd interview yesterday evening.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Happy days, looks like I'm waiting on the dear John then. Well done


  • Registered Users Posts: 201 ✭✭letsdoit2013


    Congrats mate! Nothing this end so thinking a dear John my way


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 Kalel90


    Anyone else hear anything yet/ receive their dear Johns yet? Was hoping to get some feedback and assuming they should be letting us know if we didn't progress.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 BelfastMan26


    Haven't received anything yet, I did phone on Friday to ask what was happening and was told not to assume you have been unsuccessful until you have heard either way from them. I would love to know what way they are working this process.
