    Got an interview soon for Dublin, anyone any ideas of how the shift work actually works in Customs? I don't drive so I can't see me getting to this job easily. I could just stick out my TCO job for the next three months and hope that I get an extension and wait till I get an interview for 2019 CO.

    Most people I know got the their contract emailed to them with in a few days of the reference checks being conducted. I wouldn’t hand in notice until I had my new contract signed and returned provided you are confident your Garda vetting will be clear. Especially as you have until August 12th In this case.

    They only called one of my references so far. Just basically in relation to my timekeeping, if I got on with co workers... They said the call was less than 2 minutes.
