    The waiting is awful!

    Yep, the wait sucks. I'm on a tco contract with two others and we've been getting contract extensions. I got a letter saying i was finished a week before my end date and the day after I got another letter extending for 6 months. Every time an extension applies for its like russian roulette. Who goes first.

    Fingers crossed we hear by the end of the week. The 2016 CO results were out the week after the interviews finished and there is a larger volume of applicants in that competition.

    I did, they said around mid-may, which doesn't narrow it down much

    Results are in!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 65 ✭✭DeanoG14


    Just received an email to say I qualified for the position. Got my order of merit number for my second choice but not my first choice... is it likely that I qualified for one area but not the other? I finished in the top 10 for my second choice.

    Is it possible that they are sending the areas one by one?

    Anybody hear about Galway?

    Had Dublin as my first selection and the email I recieved says I'm in the twenties for Galway?
    Does that mean I didn't reach qualifying standard for Dublin?
