Offers are out

Do you mind me asking where you were offered?

BhoyRayzor

do they email or call?

Yer_Wan_1202

I got an email with the offer - I'm based in Dublin

filmfanatic

Thanks for the information.

Maybe they are calling Dublin first as I am placed relatively high on the panel and looking for Cork only so was just wondering.

Congratulations and best of luck.

I am in the same situation placed fairly high but I'm looking for Kerry only and no way to know if there will be any offers down here.

I just contacted panel placings to enquire about any possible recruitment in Cork. Might be worthwhile contacting them - email address is Panelplacings@revenue.ie

I'd say you might be right! I wasn't placed high in the panel, but got an offer the same day the results were out

Judging by last year's thread Cork only seemed to make offers in May or June for the August 2019 course.

I was placed 11th so fingers crossed for Cork to be called eventually ðŸ˜Š

Similarly sitting very high but remote location. Did those with offers find out their start dates? Just wondering what sort of notice they give?

I was told the start date would either be 13th Jan or 20th Jan for Dublin. I said my preference was the 20th & was given that thankfully! Very tight time frame to get vetting, references etc done before handing in my notice - I'm working in the private sector at the min...

Has anyone had any further offers today?

BhoyRayzor

Looks like the initial vacancies are in Dublin, as probably expected.

Doesn't bode well for those of us who are waiting on offers for the other locations. I'm in the 50's and selected 2 locations but nothing as of yet, not very hopeful to be honest.

I emailed panel placings the other day about the regional placings but have yet to get a response.

Still waiting on a response

I am also waiting on regional panel, emailed panel placings and no response. Hard to know if there will be anything available isnt it. We will just hae to wait and see i suppose

OMN1996

Anyone get any update from panel placings?

I got a reply this morning.

They told me my place on the regional panel for Cork and they said that the next large scale recruitment from this panel will be in September 2020.

I guess some vacancies might arise between now and then but the next main recruitment from that panel will be in the Summer of 2020 to get ready for the training starting next September.

MW2020

Yes I got a response too with my regional panel placing saying the same ...next recruitment in Sept 2020. Hard to know if anything will come out of that recruitment for the regional places though isnt it.

I just accepted a new permanent position in the private sector to start in the new year. If I got called would still consider it as very high up for my region but hard one to call. Will all depend on where I am at if that call comes

BhoyRayzor

received my placing as well for the 2 locations I selected with the same message about the next planned large-scale recruitment being in September 2020.

can we presume then that we are waiting on vacancies to come up from retirements, promotions, people leaving, etc., instead of numbers working in Audit & Compliance increasing?

Yes I too got my placings for my chosen regions. Based on the information received I think that you are right in that we will be reliant on people leaving, promotions, etc.
I cannot see all locations having recruitment in September 2020 and so the chances of getting an offer may not materialise for all regions. A work colleague was placed 2nd for his selected region last year and he did not receive an offer and was removed from the Panel in October - so job offers will definitely differ between the regional offices.

Yes it is frustrating but understandable as well, just trying to get used to the process as this was my first time applying through one of these competitions.

Hard to tone down any expectation that even if you are placed 1st there might not be anything before being removed from the panel and having to go through it all again.

Was really happy with my overall placing but i don't think it will be enough. Not sure if there was anyone taken on for the location I choose for the January start and got the same reply from panel placings about September.

Best of luck to all those starting soon. Please come back and tell us all about how great it is.

Was the email from panel placing automatic or did you actually have to ask about your placing per location.

Not all new EOs will be taken from this panel too, there will be internal,inter, mobility and Possible PAS open panel appointments at the various locations too.

I am OOM of 53 nationally and 2nd and 3rd on OOM in my chosen locations (outside Dublin).

Someone re-assure me please!!!

I really depends on your location choices, do you know if any candidates were placed in your chosen locations last year?

jd10st

No idea. I don't know anyone working in Revenue. Is there any way of finding this out?

I'll just have to sit tight and hope for the best I reckon.

Similar situation to myself, mid 50's overall, 1 and 7 in my chosen locations.

I have toned down any expectation until September at the earliest, if at all. Looks like we are waiting on retirements or people moving to another location.
