    They haven’t mentioned it yet. Said there’ll be a call early next week.

    So you don't have a date for the medical is it?

    I'd love to see what they're offering.

    Just out of the interview now. They asked a lot about my previous work and how I’d deal with pressure situations and also asked to speak about the difference between the regular fire service and the airport service. Also spoke about salary which was lower than what I expected, two of my mates that are going for it definitely won’t accept it if offered.

    I find it strange that they emailed a friend of mine saying they were unsuccessful and then didn’t email you at all...maybe contact HR? You definitely have a right to know regardless.

    My general feeling on it is that it’ll be a lot more boring than the regular service. Sounds like most of the day is spent checking parameters and training with the odd emergency landing every year.

    The salary the old staff are on is absolutely shockingly huge.

    Well best of luck with it, I was trying to find out if there are any eyesight requirements as I would be interested in applying for Dublin if/when it comes up.

    The regular service is a very different and more open process
