    Hiya,
    Very unlikely you will make April on time if you have no PCT done. But stranger things have happened. For example, I know someone who done their PCT on a Saturday and got an offer the following Tuesday. Your OOM is very good!! Congrats.

    Hiya,
    Not challenging you but just more surprised - There is still plenty of time to get an invite to a PCT before April, I would think anyway
    There could be PCTs for weeks right up to April..maybe lol

    No worries, I’m personally speaking from experience and previous posters. The vetting for 2018 batch didn’t start until December according to HRM, I haven’t known vetting to be done in 4/5 months but like I said, stranger things have happened. I hope for 2018 candidates sake that they are taking some from that comp, the wait is a killer. :)

    Rang today again and they said they’re just waiting on one thing back and everything else on my vetting has been cleared. He said they sent it away yesterday but I was told a few weeks ago that they sent my last bit of vetting away ages ago and were sending reminder letters to get it back. So once again I am none the wiser. So disappointing but I may give up on being called for April.

    Cheers! I actually got my PCT date yesterday for the 22nd Feb so only 2 weeks time. Medical is usually 2 weeks after that from what others have been given. I'll hold hope for April intake a little longer!

    Im from 2016 . My vetting was sent for sign off in 2017 and was sent back looking for more information. Everything came back finally in December 2018 and they sent it off for sign off again . They said there’s nothing they can do and I’ll have to wait for the decision .
    2years not being able to plan anything and it’s looking like it’s going to be the same this year .

    They’d be back to back. So the 15th and 22nd. They wouldn’t space them. I reckon they’ll be the dates with the class starting the 29th.

    Any update about your vetting yet. Has it been signed off yet? Still waiting on mine to be signed off

    Vettings back. They said I’m in a queue waiting to be signed off by senior management. Hopefully signed off soon and just wait for the email which I expect to be mid March. Fingers crossed.

    Here’s hoping, did your friends dad hear anything?

    Do they notify you when your file gets signed off or is it just when you get an offer?

    No you either get an email with an offer of employment when they come out or the letter of rejection.

    Anyone ring to get an exact date for the intake or are we all none the wiser?

    Nah, but if you ring yourself will you let us know?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20 Brian14


    I rang HRM on Friday and they said end of march or the start of April.
    My file is waiting to be signed off since mid December so here’s hoping they sign off on them soon
