Garda Trainee November 2017 intake

TallGlass

Might as well fire this one up, I think it's safe to say most of the August invites have been released to most people. Congrats if you got one! (Don't take my word for it, there does be ad-hoc invites sent out!).

So the journey continues on for the others like myself.

Hopefully it's November for us. I will pop the FAQ in this post once I get the chance.

So let's continue as the August one might get taken over by the guys with intake related questions!

So, from what I'm seeing reading back on posts offers came out the 28th of June for the induction week starting the 31st of July. That was a Wednesday 4 and a half weeks before the induction. So I'd say first round offers be middle of next week

Sorry that was second round offers so yeah if we go by august intake offers should be out this evening ðŸ˜©

Yeah some stage next week is very likely.

i'm personally throwing in the towel on the November intake.

Last week there were loads of people who got their files signed off on (when the commissioner returned from her holidays) and what i've been seeing this week is that not a single person who has rang has been told that they were signed off this week.

This is purely speculation on my part and an extremely pessimistic/defeatist attitude but I'm guessing that those who have been signed off already are all that's going to be signed off for this intake and that most of the spaces have now been provisionally allocated using those that have been signed off

I really just don't wanna get my hopes up yanno.

I rang today, still not signed off.

Got no specifics unfortunately, I get the impression they don't really know themselves so I didn't push it lol

Folks I bit the bullet. Perhaps a tad pre emptive and hopefully some of you won't need to even go near it. However the Feb 2018 thread is opened.

Emailed hr yesterday to see if my file was signed off and they got bk to me today saying it was. I'm from January 16 campaign but oom near 1000 so don't know where that will leave me. Was chatting to a mate who is in the august intake. He has worked in hr before so therefore has contacts. He told me that first offers will go out the 18th which is next Monday. That gives us the wkend to enjoy mayo winning Sam and then Monday to be the longest day of our life's.

Got a friend from the June 2017 to ask the sergeant at the stage 2 presentation how many people were left from the 2014, Jan & Sep 2016 campaigns. The answer was about 1,000 and the June 2017 crew would be looking at 2nd/3rd quarter of 2018 start date (he emphasised the 3rd quarter).

NeeNawNeeNaw

Anyone have any idea on the number of dropouts or people who defer on getting a place for Templemore? Just out of curiosity

Any idea what time they normally send these offers out? Or is it a random time?

No set pattern as far as I can see.

It could literally be anytime this week and at any time of day ha!!

I'm fairly certain if i view this thread too much I'll need a change but that's nerves for ya

Good luck all, fairly sure I'll be bowing it off this thread for my sanity in a few days and leaving you'd with a very best of luck. Those that get it, well done and in those nervous first days and weeks always remember why you want this and you'll get over any hurdles.

Just rang, vetting still outstanding. ðŸ˜©
Asked were offers put this week and he said they'll be out the end of next week.

You were wrong about mayo winning Sam (My condolences), I hope you're not wrong about offers going out today ha!

End of next week doesn't give much time for folks to give notice to current employers,

week 25th-30th notice

induction week 1: 16th October

induction week 2: 23rd October

Who told you that the first induction week was the 16th?

That's what I was told on the phone by HRM but then that was debunked by someone else who was told it was the 23rd.
