    Hey guys,
    I’m just wondering does anyone know at what stage they contact your references or if they do at all?
    I’m just at the tying to get a gauge on where my application is at the minute. I’ve passed all stages and I’ve emailed hrm asking but I never got a reply 😂 I’m from June 2017

    All my references were contacted shortly after my Sgt meeting

    Nope. I'd imagine there's quite a few not on this though.

    Tried that approach and you just get the same generic stuff that's in the emails.

    Anyway, sorry for taking away from the happiness of all the people that got in, I will leave it there from my complaining. Best of luck down in the college and well done.


    I am sorry to hear that, your not spoiling the happeness for them your simply sharing your situation and there is nothing wrong with that !
    I am myself waiting for an offer, latest from Hrm was my vetting is still outstanding too.
    It’s a long road

    Hi guys, regarding the meeting with sgt/super, do you nominate the station you have the meeting at, is it your nearest station geographically or is it based on what district you live in?

    I live only a few minutes from the nearest district station with a super but I live just over the border in another county which the nearest district station is approx 30 mins away?

    Ah I've completely giving up hope of getting in the April intake. Gotta hope for the next intake, though, my file has been waiting for the final check since just before Christmas. Not sure why it's still waiting for that and seems like it's something that could be done in days but ah well.

    Thanks a mill for that! Rang and they said that my file has been signed off so just to be vigilant with my emails tomorrow and next week incase I get an offer but I don’t think it’s likely because they seem to have a lot of 2016 people to get through still

    That's great news for you. What oom are you roughly?

    What point you trying to make that I made of all this?


    I simply asked if it was you that had passed your physical recently. It was a question, not a point I was trying too make.

    Congrats. I think people are sceptical because of the way they are dragging the arse out of their individual files. Were you told everything else was signed off before your physical?

    I'm not having a pop at you, fair play getting in. Delighted for you. But for people like me waiting since Jan 2016, that is fúcking disgraceful. I think for me I don't care anymore and the time has come to seriously kick up a fuss about this carry on. An FBI or MI5 application would be processed by now FFS.

    Have you had to re do your medical in Phoenix park?
    Afaik the medical has a 1 year expiration date but physical does not.
