    Any of us that sat our medical last June we may end up doing it again....

    Yes and that will be me if I do not receive an offer for April.

    I'm the same. And it's absolutely ridiculous for them to let it get to that stage. Any other professional organisation that has a similar process would never have people waiting this long.

    Absolutely totally agree. I can totally understand also Jan 2016 applicants it is a joke to be fair the waiting game.

    At this stage who knows. I'd like to think more than one person on here got an offer the second round.

    Yeah and yer boy on the phone from HRM said it would be today or early next week before second round offers are out..but then again someone already got an offer so hard to know

    That's it isn't it and sure I would've thought that more people would have posted on here about receiving a second round offer other than Lee. Fair play to Lee though.

    I’ve given up hope for April anyway because nobody from the 2017 campaign seems to have gotten an offer. What campaign are you from?

    My reading of it is that anyone who deferred or declined the initial 1st ound offer, their place would have been offered individually earlier this week. I'm expecting the 2nd batch of offers to be issued today. Sept 2016, File awaiting to be signed off, but not hopeful of April class or August for that matter going by the posts here

    I'd very much like to think that us from 2016 would know whether we are in out by August.... At least put us out of our misery, life on hold, disappointment after disappointment. At least we'd know so we can move on.

    I don’t get how some people from 2017 are completely signed off but there’s still people from 2016 waiting..very confusing altogether haha

    Can anyone say for definite if the next intake will be in July or August?

    I thought it is each quarter, making it July but the Minister for justice, in an article, the link of which is on the beginning of this thread, says August.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Thanks

    I'm starting to think there's a bit of canvassing going on. That people who know people are getting others moved up the list

    Ah no I don’t think so because I’m 2017 and my file has been signed off and I don’t know a soul in the guards 😂

    Everything completed since last July, sept 2016 oom 500s but still waiting for vetting to come back, rang hrm and got a lovely lady on phone. She informed me that the reason it could be taking so long is that I’ve somebody on my form that lived in England. Apparently they are notorious for taking ages to get back to hrm. So anyone in the same boat as myself that could be the reason why. I know it doesn’t speed anything up but it’s better than no info I suppose

    Congrats. We're you told you were signed off when you got in touch with hrm or were you told waiting for suitability message?

    Well done Des that’s great news, do you mind me asking is it for the first induction week ? I am just trying to gauge has the second round of offers came out too ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15 Des1989


    Thanks lads ya low 900s is right did last step the physical in sept. I got both the suitability and confirmation of vetting not too long ago! Induction week for me is9th April so I reckon I could be in first 100? So maybe there was deferrals etc! Hopefully I am for yere benefit. Best of luck again I'd imagine there will be more offers given out!

    I am low 800’s myself so that’s promising with regarding my oom, if that actually exists anymore ha ! Just waiting on some vetting to come back now. Yeah a few friends got the 9th too so I’d say there will be a second week coming. All the best with it anyway, you have waited longer enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 373 ✭✭stiimpreza1984


    Looks like it's going to be Tuesday for second round offers :( they'd be no offers out at this time surely?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,908 ✭✭✭TallGlass


    I'd forget about it now to next intake to be honest. What a fùcking joke of a process.

    I rang HRM today and they said to be vigilant of emails in the coming days/weeks ahead !
    Yeah it sure is !!

    Where has the 5-6 weeks notice gone....it's gone below 4 weeks notice now. Even for the first round offers that came out Tuesday gone never mind the second round offers when they come out hopefully start of next week.
