    Previous service is taken into account and incremental credit is applied. The first 3 years are discounted and not applied to incremental credits. You should get 6.5 years applied to your salary which I think would put you on Point 6 of the scale rather than point 1, it will also speed up your next increment due date. Rather than having to wait a year your increment will come up quicker and you will move on to the next point on the scale which I think in your case would be point 7. Good Luck:)

    Many thanks Cavan Bear. I probably should have stated that my previous position wasn’t clerical. Do you know of that will make a difference?

    Many thanks

    I’m guessing they will keep hiring off this panel as vacancies arise until they have stage 3 of this new campaign complete with a panel formed. I’m not sure how long that will take.

    Just read information booklet and it said;

    Stage 1 - Online Assessment Questionnaire Live- 2nd May 2019

    Stage 1 - Online Assessment Questionnaire Close - 7th May 2019 at 12 noon

    Stage 2- Interview - 18th May 2019

    This new campaign seems to be moving very quick. And no mention of supervised tests... strange.

    There doesn’t appear to be so much as a fart in my direction, I think it’s time to just move to Zimbabwe and start building paddle boats.

    You never know, mine has taken months, my interview was May 2018! My Garda vetting had to be redone because of the length of time. You should call them.

    Wow, a year ago! But when did you finally start then after all that? haha. I have man, I’ve called publicjobs before (I don’t want to persistently do so) and in fairness they are quite helpful and told me where my application was at with straight facts. The Garda vetting unit on the other hand, I emailed them and I hate to say it but just as predicted like many folk had said here previously, I got the usual copy and paste template back, further quizzed them and they just didn’t reply haha. I think it’s the not knowing if it ever will happen.

    That is so frustrating. How long has it been with the guards now.

    4 months! That’s ridiculous man, no it’s more than a few weeks, the PAS made a disclosure nearly two months ago (plus the time to do the vetting) and the AGS vetting made a disclosure over a month ago but nothing, yet they told me they were awaiting the return of 2 strands?? Haha

    I've been told 1 more strand . I know it's ridiculous but just have to ignore it as much as possible. i know it's hard

    But i read the other day that the vetting bureau dealt with over half million vetting applications last year and it continues to grow so would be a bit of an explanation.

    Just getting impatient is all, it’s a long process, not surprised that within that time people just move on to other things instead of holding their breath
