    When my partner finished his interview, they said they expect to let people know around the 2 week mark. So

    any idea how long it takes to recieve an offer?

    The reality is that the vetting only starts now and it could take several months. There are only a very few working on hundreds of vetting applications. My hat is off to them as I had them plagued as did most others. They get through them as fast as possible but be prepared on a wait.

    Mine took over 3 months. I know of others who waited longer.

    Best advice is to fill everything in as accurately as possible and keep a copy of everything .........

    EVERYTHING ;-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 Johnk8244


    Ya I read through and seen that the vetting takes ages. Are you in the job now and do u like it

    Did they send you the vetting forms, as my partner said he didn't fill out any vetting forms yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43 Cherylwalsh3


    I’m sure this has been asked before but can someone explain what happens after a successful interview and got your OOM ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 Leanne1994


    so I rang PAS today for an update... another message is due to be sent out with information on hearing test. it has to be submitted and passed and that's stage 4. once it's passed PAS is finished with us and passes our application over to the Garda HR in navan. they commence a full background check which is stage 5. once thats cleared your basically just waiting for an offer. everyone that passed the interview is set for a job offer considering they pass stage 4 and 5
