They will tell you at which stage it is if you email H.R.M.

How much notice do you get before starting so?

I've heard people saying four weeks but it seems to vary!

I'd say you stand a good chance but there are 100s of people still from older campaigns also loads of people might defer because of possible last year in college....

It's really how lucky you are

Has anyone the email for H.R.M to find out what stage the Vetting is at or even there number

They may do. Induction week is only 4 days long.

If it was starting the first week of April, would offers not be out soon?

In my experience guys you won't know until you've got one! And also don't expect them all out on the same day

last time they were out pretty much the same day (two days) ...

My point is that if you think they will be out the first week of April and they generally give you 4 weeks notice, then offers would be out the first week in march? Roughly

If so then offers should be out tomorrow, they usually give slightly more than 4 week notice...

I really think induction weeks will be end of April....

They were out over the week.
I got one 4 days after the first offer.

I received a call from the Sergeant and I am meeting her next week.

She said my vetting came back and two names showed up and she wanted to know what dealings I have with them. I'm thinking one has got to do with a cousin which I have nothing ever got to do with her and never had any dealings with her and I know she is not a savoury character.

I do not have any vetting issues myself just them two relatives but I don't know who the other person is.

How serious would your relatives interactions be with the Gardaí to receive a generally unsuitable letter? Is this normal have other applicants received calls like this?

Just a bit worried and have spent a lot of time and effort into the whole recruitment process.

Thank you.

See pm, up front and honest, you should be fine. Just be yourself and answer any questions to best of your ability with as much detail as you can provide.

So would that be when the induction week is starting or would that be the week before? Could be looking at offers going out in the next week or so?

Lads if you receive a pm message please don't quote it or the person. It was a pm for a reason.

I am simply thanking the user for the public post the user put up. I am not quoting or the poster is not quoting anything whatsoever in relation to the PM.

Leotard95 · 23-02-2018 09:10AM

Hi..June 17 and phyiscal in March.. just wondering if let's say my OOM was 120 and someone from Sept 16 OOM was 780..would I get in before that person as I have lower OOM..also realistically what are chances for April?

Thanks

No everyone left from the Sep 16 campaign would be given precedence ahead of you. Your chances of getting in in April are zero, you'd be more looking at possibly July. But more than likely September or January next year.

I can understand September 16 getting precedence but that does not mean that all september 16 will be accepted in before june 17 campaign. People will still have outstanding vetting so you could find that some june campaign will get in before September 16 do.

However i do agree with you, if you have the physical in march it would be zero chance of April. Just for the simple fact that offers would more than likely be out in march giving you little time before vetting sign off. I would say hope for july but it could be later.

It’s normally about a month before hand, so it’d be the last week of March before there’s any hint of offers going out.

I’ve known of candidates who have done the PCT the same month as offers coming out and getting their place in the intake. So not unheard of. I’d be prepared to be called and prepared to wait at the same time (if that makes sense).

redpuma · 26-02-2018 03:50AM

Has anyone got a PCT date from 2017 campaign? If so, what OOM region are you in? Cheers!
