    It's a 1 in 4 chance of being placed when as position arises.
    HEO and AO regarded at the same grade so for every position that comes up its a 1 in every 4 positions
    that a AO will be recruited : They take from the Internal competition, Interdepartmental competition, Transfer panel and the AO panel. I sat number 1 on 2 panels for three locations last year for 6 months and nothing came about. This panel maybe different with retirements and Brexit looming but as a person retires it is the 4 panels they alternate from to recruit

    They are kinda the same grade but AOs are recruited into different positions, an AO won't normally replace an HEO auditor in say the business division, AO can be promoted to HEO and AOs normally go into specialist teams/roles.

    Hopefully with retirements & Brexit as you mentioned, there will be enough places to go around for all the different competitions.

    Here I was thinking I’d be grand, I got placed on 2 panels & picked 3 locations. I placed no 1 on 1 panel for all 3 locations & placed within top 4 on other panel for all locations.
    Were you lucky to get an offer eventually? If so, how are you liking the position?

    :o:o my thoughts exactly!!!!!

    It also depends on counties selected some have little chance of having positions for an AO. Need to put a bit of thought into location selection otherwise it is pot luck.

    Do you know what counties would have little or less chance of AO positions?

    Does anyone know if there has been any movement on promotion from the panels? I know one person mentioned an appointment in Dublin the other week but has there been anything since?

    Well done and Congratulations 👏. You must be delighted. Did you get a start date? Its great to have a good outcome after a long process.

    Thanks 3002 & monkeylover10. You're right - Its great to have a good outcome after a long process.

    I have used this site as a lifeline (having never before applied to the Civil Service) so just wanted to let you know there is movement.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 374 ✭✭Ollie321


    I wonder if it is a one of that RedBarn got or if there are going to be more offers shortly? Has anyone heard that anyone else was offered yesterday?

    Is there any movement on the data analytics panel? Seems as though tax and accounting are the main ones utilised.

    I got offered Limerick yesterday re the Taxation panel but declined as it was my 3rd location preference & waiting hopefully for first or second choice location.

    I presume we will be offered positions from whatever panel as they arise in whatever location.

    Great to see movement all the same!!

    I have been offered a position in Cork for the law panel. Not my first choice location, but worried no positions will arise in my chosen locations...
