Hey I emailed hr last week and got an email back saying the vetting was back and that it has been sent to senior management for signing off once nothing wrong with it is this a good sign?

In the same boat myself, hoping it means we'll be a shoe in for a start in November.

I've completed no online application on publicjobs.ie and am waiting for a recruitment campaign to arise. Is it just a matter of sitting and waiting or is there anything i should do/have in preparation for this? Any advice is greatly appreciated

nothing you can do except wait really. maybe talk to your local super to see what you're getting yourself in for and maybe get pointers on the aptitude tests.

Just double checking about the physical, unlike the medical you don't have to confirm your attendance?

You do also confirm your attendance for physical, same as for medical

It doesn't say anything about confirming attendance on my email.. did if for you?

Yes just doubled checked it, I received an email in the 20th of April and it said I had to confirm it by the 25th that I will be attending it.

No I don't see anything about confirming just give me a date and time and to report to reception for 9am bring ID etc. I got that 3 days ago and 2 days ago got another saying to reconfirm date that it's September 2nd not August 19th but no idea why I got that. I got attachments but nothing reads to confirm. I'll email now just in case. Does anyone know the HRM number and I'll call them in the morn to clarify everything?

Does anyone know do you have to have your pct test done before you can contact hrm about how your vetting is getting on ?

No.

Has anyone else been waiting a few months for their application to be signed off on?

Yep, I phoned again today and still waiting to be signed off. I've been phoning every couple of weeks or so and no change so I decided I'm just going to wait until around when the offers for November are coming out before I check again.

Somebody mentioned before on this that they have a feeling just before the offers are due to come out, senior management sign off in bulk files that have vetting completed. I don't think hrm will tell anyone anything different, I've been waiting about 6 weeks for sign off so I'd imagine anyone who was told it's gone to senior managment for final review or it's gone for sign off won't be told anything else until you get the email with your offer.
Hopefully it's only another 4 weeks until they start offering out places! I can't bare the wait anymore haha !

Waiting since May,stopped ringing a few weeks ago. Better off not knowing at least it'll be a nice surprise if my vetting is signed off in time and I get an offer for November :P

HE told me yesterday that they have asked for a small bit of clarification on my getting from the locals, whatever the hall that means

Been waiting since March for my file to be signed off. January 16 with OOM between 100 -110. I dnt ring HR anymore.
