    Have you guys trained by yourself for the fitness test or have you gone to a fitness coach? I’ve little experience doing push ups and sit ups so I’m afraid I’d be doing them wrong lol

    I’m the same.. joining a gym, losing weight, getting fit.. it’s like a New Years resolution you actually have to do..

    If they are contacting people by batch this week, I'm guessing if some people get contacted today they are the first batch?

    If they were to invite 800 to stage 2, in 5 batches. That would work out at 160 invites per day this week. But I am prob totally wrong, I don't know how they do it.

    How do you know they're contacting this week... I'm on my nerves for the last 2 week's waiting to hear back...

    "Results of Stage 1 (Part A and Part B) will be made available by the w/c 16th July 2018 and will be sent to your publicjobs Message board."

    From: Stage 1 Pre-test Information Booklet

    Lol. I don’t have a bad fitness level as I stay active but Defo needs work for that fitness test. I never do push ups or sit ups. I’ve done beep tests before and used to be good at them as I’d played sports but not playing sports now so gotta work on it... gym might be the way to go to get some tips aswell haha. If we get in to training there are multiple fitness tests throughout the two years so we’ll have to keep it up.

    The results from stage 1 will be issued to your public jobs message board by the end of this week I cannot give you an exact day at the moment.



    As per the pre test information booklet the results will issue the week commencing the 16th July.

    Thats the reply I got back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 89 ✭✭Flashpoint


    Why didn't they just say week commencing 23rd July as Public Appointments Service clearly can't deliver anywhere close to the start of the week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 89 ✭✭Flashpoint


    Another reply from PAS, I am sorry if you were confused by the information provided in the booklet but we are still very much on track to issue results to candidates within the timeframe provided.

    Thanks for updating us. My nerves are wrecked I really didn’t feel I had done enough but he longer it draws out the harder it is to remain calm 😭


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30 jojomama


    I'd say between later today and tomorrow early afternoon they'll release them not long to wait now anyway and at least not another weekend to get through 😄 bad or good looking forward to finding out result

    Ya I’d say if we hear nothing in the next hour or two it will prob be tomorrow before we get them.
    I think mine went well, I answered all the answers anyway but I find it hard to judge. When I was doing practice ones I did bad when I thought I did good and vice versa lol
