Just got an email there. Havenâ€™t heard anything since completing stage 2 at home tests. Saying they have progressed with stronger applications and my application will be kept on file.

Where did you apply for Willie Stroker 1976?

Got the same email. Doesn't sound too promising

No it doesn’t. To be honest, I hadn’t heard anything at all since stage 2, didn’t even get the 4-6 week email, so I had gotten over it since and assumed I was out. This gives a little hope, but still, over it at this point.

Applied for cork, not heard anything since stage 2 and 4-6 wk email

Eddie Ere · 14-02-2019 07:05AM

I think those who got the 4-6 week email are in a much better position than myself who got the email last night, as they are more than likely going to be contacted pretty soon by the sounds of it. Best of luck.

Ais123 · 14-02-2019 08:01AM

Out of interest those that got the 4-6 week email was it from opc or Irish rail?

annor99 · 14-02-2019 08:16AM

My hubby applied to Limerick and didn't get any email after stage two online tests. No 4 to 6 email or this latest one. Doesn't seem to be any logic to it but hopefully there is.

Limerick applicant but did get the follow up email after Stage 2 tests

Think the people who got the 4 to 6 week emails were all for depots outside dublin

md323 · 14-02-2019 09:49AM

I applied for Limerick.
Got the 4-6 week email on the 26th of January.
Email came from OPC.

I applied Dublin and got the 4-6 week email 3 weeks ago. Got it 26th January too as above.

DAgr1mT0K3r · 14-02-2019 09:53AM

Same got my 4-6wk email from OPC on the 26th (Galway depot)

Bravington49 · 14-02-2019 10:18AM

I done the stage 2 the second week of Jan, not heard a jot since, no 4-6 week mail or anything since, seems to be a little all over the place.

Same here, I received the 4-6 email three weeks ago, however, no further news as of yet.

GM228 · 14-02-2019 12:31PM

A LARGE batch of e-mails are to be issued today...

Depends on how you look at it. Your application will be kept on file etc.

Some were sent out yesterday I believe with the majority today.

fanningb · 14-02-2019 03:16PM

Got mine yesterday also, congrats on passing stage two online tests but we are currently moving forward with stronger candidates, we will keep your application on file and may call you within 2 years... (I don't think I'll be holding my breath while waiting for a call so)

LouD2016 · 14-02-2019 03:34PM

Has anyone received an out and out rejection email? Or is it all either no email or the 4-6 week one?

Hey, just curious.. where did you hear that? Have many people received emails in the last two days?

Then that is a good sign.

Kopparberg Strawberry and Lime · 14-02-2019 05:36PM

Still nothing on interview.

Any sign of that GM or is there a hold up for the medicals ?

Clodiagh87 · 14-02-2019 06:34PM

No word here since the 'all appointments have now been assigned. We will be in contact very soon.' e-mail last Wednesday.

I'm having the 16pf tomorrow in Inchicore, as they didn't have time to do them last week. I'm assuming a medical is to follow, as Ais pointed out there will be more medicals end of the month. If all goes well, interviews immediately after that, but it'll be a close shave with starting the course beginning of March, will be happening very quickly indeed...

I would think if they are pushed on time they may make a class for March from those that have gone through all stages up to interview, and for us who won't have a medical for a few weeks, we may be in the queue for next class to start a couple of months after that,sometime in summer.
Or, potentially they may interview those they think are the main candidates and of those if some haven't had a medical yet the medical may be done afterwards. Depends I suppose on how much they wish to expedite the process, the number who are through, and the number they plan to take on.

Can only wait and see.

Clever8619 · 14-02-2019 09:16PM

No chance there will be a class in March. By the time people are interviewed and vetted?? Absolutely no chance.
