I will be replacing another girl on my team who is being promoted to HEO in the department. Im guessing when we get new CO's that one may report to me, but not sure yet. Do you know if they will need to do Garda vetting etc again? Or if I need to do anything like contacting PAS to inform them that my AP is putting things in motion to keep me? Sorry for all of the questions, just wondering how it all works!

Samuel T. Cogley wrote: » Congrats, it's very straight forward and when they get to your position on the panel you will become an EO - happens very frequently that people are kept. A word of warning though, sometimes you don't make a clean break with your CO duties and team members may react differently to a promotion than to a new manager. It sounds as if there is a definite position you're moving so it should be okay but bear it in mind.

But that’s great at least I know I’m not going crazy now! Does anybody have any tips on the interview? Is it much like the CO interviews but more in detail? And does it really go on for the full 40 minutes? That’s daunting for me!
Em2157 wrote: » Hi all, so I have passed interview with OOM under 20 on Friday. My manager came to me today asking if I'd like to stay in the team as an EO just got promotion to HEO and there is an opening. I love my job now, so I'm so pleased. Does anyone know how this works? I know my AP is going to speak to HR now, but would I still have to go through Garda and ref checks or can they literally just change me from CO to EO if its approved?
Skweefie wrote: » I had the same panic about 3 weeks ago! There is a part A on the form and a part C on the form. We did not fill out competencies on the application form and there is no part B. I am assuming it is a generic application form with the competencies part removed before distribution to candidates. They are being mentioned here in preparation for the interview when it is very definitely run through on the competencies; team leadership, management and delivery of results, judgement analysis and decision making and commitment to public service values.

My memory is just the worst and I can’t remember doing one and there’s none on my public jobs in the ‘my applications’ part. But I’ve seen people mention them on here. Any help would be appreciated!
