    To be perfectly honesty, most TCO contracts aren't extended. I have heard AGS can be quite good for extensions but unfortunately that is no guarantee.

    Yeah I would say it probably depends on the station too and how busy it is, i’m in Anglesea St so thats busy enough spot. Guess we’ll just have to wait and see! Thanks for the info!

    Hi all, just a query about the TCO contract and extensions. I started a TCO contract with AGS in Cork City about a month ago and my contract is for 12 weeks. Now the office and station i'm in is quite busy and i'm after replacing a CO who moved due to COVID and health reasons. I am wondering what are my chances of getting my contract extended?

    I am quite worried about this because I am after booking accommodation (originally from Kerry and don't drive). I just got my first month probation review today and it was gold stars so far, which is great! I really do like the work i'm doing and would love it if my contract was extended beyond the initial 12 weeks.

    Also for the CO competition I came 1280 in Cork, I suppose I have no chance to be called for another interview at this stage?

    Don't be banking on an extension. Some departments are rigid enough on the terms of their TCO contracts. It'll probably depend on how busy the section is, plans for staff leave, money being available etc.

    They have only called 7 people for interview :( And almost 2 months ago, it was 6 so very slow movement.

    Got a message today in Irish asking me to send my level of Irish according to the European self assessment framework to a particular email as part of the Irish clerical job.

    Is this a standard thing or does it bode well that I got this message today? Maybe everyone else who ticked Irish got it too?

    Thanks!

    I get the recruitment taking longer but why has it been reduced from a 2-year campaign to just 1?

    Looking less likely every month that passes. Such a shame it’s a 1 year panel.

    Where did they say it’s a one year panel? Sure that will be over soon enough

    Just enquired there for Mayo they're on OOM 8.

    This campaign is not gonna take off much. I enquired on the 1st of July and they were on OOM 7 so they've moved 1 place in the last 6/7 weeks.

    Doesn't fill me with hope considering it's a 1 year panel even with a good OOM in the early 70's

    Sigh

    The application date has long since passed but keep an eye on Publicjobs.ie for future campaigns.

    I sent the email, I hope I wasn't too harsh on myself in grading myself according to the self assessment framework, but on the other hand, I would want to be caught out in an interview lol.

    I got not response after I sent my email in, hopefully that's normal.

    Only on 10?! That's disappointing. Moving at a glacial pace.
