Clerical Officer 2020

imagusaran · 10-03-2021 01:16PM

Had my interview last week for Dublin and got the results today. I'm in Batch 21 and my new oom is 28 but my scores in each competency were decent enough and it said I had reached the qualifying standard. Is it just the top 20 in each batch that are actually considered for jobs or does anyone know if it goes beyond that?

Anyone who reaches the qualifying score is successful so your good pending availability of positions.

Hey, just wondering, i had my interview last week, knew it didn't go well as didn't prepare enough, but got results today and i "have reached the qualifying standard and have been placed 81 on the order of merit for Co. Dublin" 81 seems pretty bad, I'm wondering does anyone know if this number is ever offered a position? Thanks

G2234567 · 10-03-2021 03:08PM

You qualified and you will be offered a position if there are 81 jobs available and yes it has happened in all of the batches before you

Hi all,

Had my interview last Friday and a few hours later got my result: #2 on order of merit for batch 11 in Cork. Any ideas on what happens next? Have been unemployed for more than a year so what references do they ask for and when do you think I'll hear back? Any ideas on what departments are hiring in Cork atm?

Congrats to all those who've gotten offers already

Hi what OOM were you if you don't mind me asking

Elliebeee · 10-03-2021 09:03PM

Didn’t you also write previously that you’d received an email to say that the2020 panel had been extended for another year until 2022?

However, another user was informed by PAS that the 2020 panel will run until May 2021 with no plans no extend it at the moment.

When completing E vetting, do you have to print out the forms and fill them in or can I do it on my laptop?

I believe you need to fill that with a pen (it was stated on the form). Ive filled with a pen and just took the pictures with my phone and send it by mail and by post. There's no issue if you'll take a photo, as long its a good quality photo I guess.

What email address did you contact to get this information

Beeabell · 11-03-2021 04:15PM

Seems conflicting information been giving. Email from pas to say panel will be extended yet new campaign starting in September.

dragx · 11-03-2021 07:07PM

Honestly lads, PAS are great at getting back to e-mails. Not worth following the Chinese whispers in this thread, you can e-mail them and they'll probably be back same day. I'd like to add I was also told there's no plans to extend this campaign.

Hey, does anyone know what batch they're on at present? I'm batch 21 OOM is in the 40s. Just wondering if there is any chance being called before the panel ends.
Thanks

May not be the right thread but does anyone know if COs fall under the essential worker list for driving tests?

It would depend on your department I would imagine. Many departments are WFH. Garda Staff have been marked as essential and are in albeit at reduced capacity to ensure social distancing.

Like quite a few others, I received an email on 3/3/21 to say I was successful at interview for C.O. Customs and finished OOM 54 in Dublin, batch 6.

Still no word from anybody regarding garda checks etc. I lived in both the UK and Spain, will that delay my clearance?

Will I get offered a position having placed OOM 54?

I have been self employed for 16 years. Who will they ask for references in that case?

Any advice would be great, thanks.

I asked PAS about police clearance as I also lived abroad. They told me that if it’s more than 5 years ago, it’s fine.

However, I’m still going to get my Spanish police clearance as it a pain in the behind.

You need to fill in a form from the ministry of justice website, pay €3.87 in a bank and get a receipt, make an appointment with the Spanish embassy in Dublín, go there with your passport and a photocopy, pay them €10, they stamp your passport photocopy and then you send it all back to Spain! Getting an appointment is a nightmare. I initially got one for May 10th but have managed to get one for March 22 now.

I’d advise you to start that process too, just in case!

Thanks for replying.

I left Spain 17 years ago and the UK 24 years ago. Can I take it that they will not need police checks therefore as it is more than 5 years ago?

Ah! Well that’s what a PAS employee told me when I emailed but I’m getting mine just in case someone else tells me differently! The TCO 2021 clearance forms state ‘within the last 5 years’ so I didn’t need it for that. Maybe someone on here who has already got a position could confirm if it’s also the case for permanent CO?

Email Pass and clarification from the horses mouth so to speak.
The folks in Pas are very helpful and dont bite.

Samuel T. Cogley · 15-03-2021 10:30AM

I would have thought all the checks would be done on a police to police basis through AGS, but as above contact PAS and check.

That's not how vetting works now.

If you've lived overseas, its up to you to get police certificates for places where you spent 6+ months.

I didn't have to and I went through enhanced vetting.

Does anyone know if clerical officers will still have the option to WFH when the pandemic is over?
