    What area have you applied for? I found the online assessments difficult and quite surprised I've made it to the supervised testing.

    Does anyone have a copy of the information booklet by any chance? Didn’t think to save it down.

    there was definetely one at 11 and one befoe it yesterday, was about between 15 and 20 in mine I think.

    I doubt anyone got them all completed to be honest, certainly not all correctly anyway and only with guessing.

    both tests I got about 30 completed in each with some skipped as well. at this stage I'm just trying not to think about a possible position as there are so many variables that can come into play that it's not worth worrying about.

    i sat the unsupervised, and was called into a meeting 3 mins into it (not ideal)! so when i came back i had 5 mins remaining so i guessed all the answers for the numerical. i went on and completed the verbal and chat, fine. i got called to supervised testing yesterday, after reading all the posts here, i dont know how i was! Especially if negative marking, i used same method yesterday for answers i didnt get finished so safe to say ill be out!

    Does anyone know how long it will take to hear back after the tests?

    I would assume that we should hear today or early next week at the latest to give time for interview bookings.

    Well done!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 RCL173


    Haven’t received anything, do they email you if you are unsuccessful as well?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55 ✭✭LM4C


    Got my results and am through to interview stage. Delighted. Well done to all who passed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 838 ✭✭✭Gus Ivey


    Can someone confirm if this competition covers the Trainee Auditor roles with the Comptroller and Auditor General? I can't find another thread specifically on the Auditor role, and I would have expected to see it here?

    I just got an email from PAS saying I passed phase 1 and have been invited to the next stage which is a Case Study

    I wouldn’t imagine so it’s run by Revenue not Pas


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8 clarelnk


    I think this is for executive office role for revenue but it comes up for trainee auditor role because the words are in the description.

    I have just got that email too about the case study too. Have no idea if we have to go somewhere or we do it remotely?????

    I thought Revenue fell under the scope of PAS. Every day is a school day!

    I think it is remotely, but we will find out more when they email us next week. Good luck!
    Do you have any accountancy qualifications or experience?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8 clarelnk


    Same to you good luck!
    I don’t but from reading the job description it sounds like it would be desirable but not necessary once you have a degree.

    So people who didnt get through didnt get an email? Probably get an email at a later date of being unsuccessful

    Well done on passing. Congrats and best of luck going forward. Can I ask what day your assessment was? Mine was on Wednesday so I’m guessing I haven’t been successful as I have received no email.

    Thank you! Mine was Monday. So who knows maybe it’s in day order?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87 ✭✭BJG524


    I got results yesterday and did the test wednesday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 314 ✭✭BhoyRayzor


    So what impact/emphasis does the interview have?

    Going by the initial email it seems the order of merit given next week then is final or is it updated based on how you perform in the interview?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42 OutForTender


    Last year you didn't get a new OOM after the interview. But you would move up a few places if people above you failed the interview.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 20,732 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    I was notified that I passed the test, but they are not following through with my application. My qualification is not applicable for the job. It appears I must have misread the job spec for suitable qualification.

    Raging, but these things happen :)

    Sorry to hear that. What is your qualification? When did you get email


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 RCL173


    Just got an email saying I reached the required standards for the tests and have been given an order of merit but I am not being called for interview as part of the initial group.
    Does this mean there’s still a chance I could be called for interview?
