    Hi mcc_c, around what time yesterday did emails go out? Also have you heard of any rejection emails being sent? I’m still waiting to hear from the air corps myself after online tests.

    I got mine late enough, close to 12am! I wouldn't worry just yet some more might come out today, @RCB1A seems to have been given a day for the fitness which I haven't got yet so they might be doing it in increments! Just keep an eye on junk and if you don't hear by tomorrow I'd say throw them an email

    Just got the email there myself, thanks! I think they’ll start allocating days for fitness/group etc once they have contacted most that have passed stage 1.

    Sorry if I mislead anyone, I read the Air Corps email wrong and thought we had to choose a day for ourselves between the 13th and 17th and email back which one we would be free for. Oops :o

    Anyone except RCB1A get the vetting form? They’re sent by the Garda Vetting Unit which is a separate organisation so just curious! I’ve not heard anything yet.

    I just noticed now in the latest Air Corps email (the one that says 13th - 17th) it said to reply to be given a date! Maybe that's why ye haven't gotten one yet?

    It said
    Please confirm your ability to attend by email by no later than 1400 on Saturday 11th July and a day will be allocated to you.

    I got the Air Corps rejection last week as well. Made a balls of the test. I’ve got no Garda vetting form though which is worrying.

    What roles did you apply for? Maybe the different roles will be selected at different times.

    Also for those who applied for multiple roles, do you know if it is the one interview or is it a seperate interview for each role?

    The way they did it with us was fitness in the morning, then psychometrics, then break, then psychometrics again then group assessments. Surprisingly there is a personality test at the end both pyschometric sessions but I think the second one tests for any mental illnesses because the questions are weird.

    I have a feeling we’re probably on the reserve interview panel, and we’ll be called if other people aren’t available or fail the interview.
