    Loads of potential reasons. Your username if either accurate or used in jest in an email address would be one!

    Huge numbers apply for these positions and some sort of shortlisting procedure will apply to cull numbers before interview.
    Eg. They might not interview anyone without previous bus driving experience, or with points on their licence.

    The online assessment is used to cull a large amount of applicants tbh. Aircoach is also hiring.

    I have experience and a clean licence.

    They were just random examples.
    I don't know what criteria bus eireann may have applied.

    BE seems to be where the money is at, but if already employed as a bus driver it may be easier to make the jump.

    Just re apply with a different email if you really want the job and consider possible mistakes you could have made on the assessment.

    I submitted a handwritten application.
    Can’t see where I went wrong with the assessment bar having it done in 15 minutes.

    Sometimes marks are allocated to due timings.

    Don't be too disheartened. Everyone can't be interviewed.

    Have a look at continental companies. Some seek drivers for the summer months. See Europe and get paid can't be all bad. If you have a couple of years experience should help.

    Op I should have asked are you under 25?

    Age shouldn't be a barrier so.

    Driving on the continent is no big deal, the rules of the road are actually enforced though. You should think about it.

    €10 P/H?


    My daughter gets that for making beds in a hotel. Pretty poor wage for a professional driver in charge of the public.

    Done the online assessment myself last week and was in to get my details taking in Jurys a few weeks ago
    Have not heard a word back or a letter as of yet

    I like yourself am in my twenties
    Clean DE And CE Licence
    All the other cards to go with them

    Personally i am sick of interviews and applying to places
    The money on offer in most is a joke
    Especially for the work involved in most jobs
    Driver shortage and they wont take people on without 2 to 5 years experience
    Dont want to train you,expect you to know everything

    I am not complaining by any means,Just my experience

    They are looking for heavy vehicle mechanics as well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,916 ✭✭✭Grab All Association


    Bernard Kavanagh in Urlingford is apparently looking for drivers too I heard. No harm in calling them.
