    I got word yesterday that I'll be starting the 7th January in DFA in the passport office in Balbriggan. I heard that DFA are looking for 100 staff in total. Just waiting on contract from HR. I'm batch 2 oom 232 for reference for those trying to figure out where pas is at. Good luck to everyone else waiting.

    That would have been my dream location, 20 minutes up the road from me. Best of luck!
    Lucky you.I am in the 960 OOM Batch 1 and live in the Balbriggan area and have just been assigned to the guards in the Phoenix pk.Worked as a TCO in Passport office in Balbriggan before and it is a great place to work.1 hour travelling for me in the mornings and evenings.No joined up thinking in the Civil service as regards posting locations.Best of luck.

    Anyone know what kind of positions are being offered to batch 3? I was offered NSSO Clonskeagh today so I'm guessing thats PeoplePoint but would be a nightmare commute from the Midlands with traffic- I already commute but only to the edge of the city.

    Wasnt sure what I would be offer if I declined and then I seen this thread. Phoenix Park would be perfect.

    Hi all,

    I have just be assigned provisionally to revenue. Does anyone have any input on what the Job entails. Is this a very much a public facing role?. I would be concerned that my math skills wouldn't be of the best standard and this may affect my performance in such a role. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards,
    Chris

    Congrats! I've heard there is quiet intense training in revenue. You'll be assigned a location to do 6 weeks training then be sent out to a revenue office to commence your position. Best of luck , it's been a long slog lol

    I was assigned to Revenue a few months back, and I’m loving it. The training varies, depending on which section you’re assigned to. I was worried about my math skills too, but the training is thorough. Best of luck! :)

    As with anybody starting the job dress smart for the first day. It's better to be overdressed than under dressed. You'll see from the first day what everyone wears and just copy that.

    Health is fine it's one of the busier departments since every thing they do is in the newspapers being criticized so you'll have your work cut out for ye but its a good department to be in if you like making a difference. You'll see work your doing help people day to day. Good luck

    Hi Scamps,

    I have spoke with a few others and people are saying its a good place to work and not to be worried about your maths skills. It seems to be a very broad sector and could end up being assigned out to the airport or anything. I received my extra e vetting form to do but not heard much else.

    I've was called on Thursday and I'm batch 3 oom 125. I got the extra vetting form and the email I received said the vetting takes up to 3 weeks. Might not be as hard a vetting as going guards or DOJ

    Has anyone received their contracts by post? How long before start date did you get it? I'm starting 14th of January and thought I'd have it by now.
