Any soul hear a word back yet? No one I have talked to has, neither rejection or interview offer
If I haven't received either a rejection or a Garda vetting is it safe to assume it's a no go for me?
I got my army invite yesterday so they’re still sending them out, I wouldn’t get too worried yet!
Well done mate, what day are you in for?
Cheers, I’m in for the 28th
Hi folks. I assume the mess is sign posted as it was for stage 2? Otherwise any idea whereabouts it is?
Also are we able to park there or do we need to park on a street somewhere?
Also curious about this. Although I assume parking would be available?
Anyone have any experience on the Army interview and what to expect?
There's plenty of parking and it's quite easy to find.
4 interviewers, 1 of whom is a civilian. Lots of waiting prior as expected. Interview is about 40 minutes, fairly relaxed actually. They'll ask for examples from your life where you have demonstrated competencies.
Anyone else still waiting on the garda vetting? I've tried emailing twice now but nothing still. I did my interview on the 20th so already have that behind me.
I got my garda vetting before I was even invited to interview.
Not too sure what you'd do really because there was an issue with mine and they never got back to my emails. Maybe there's a number in the DFTC you can ring??
Had my Navy medical back on the 20th, anyone heard anything for the Army medical yet?
Medicals are happening now, but keep in mind that interviews are also being held up until the 30th so I wouldn't worry
I’m fairly sure if you have had a Navy medical you won’t need to do one for the Army as well, that’s what I was told at my Navy one anyway
Yeah they said that to me too, they’ll surely let us know soon anyway either way!
Medicals are happening now for the army? Or for just the navy? Haven't heard anything back yet myself but was having an issue getting the email for the Garda vetting so just want to make sure I don't miss anything. Haven't got any email if I passed the interview or not either. Did anyone hear back yet for the Army interviews about a date for the medical?
I haven't got any word about how my interview went but I got an email from the head of recruitment on Wednesday saying that, if we do pass the interview, the dates for part one of the medical will be the 3rd or 4th of August in either Dublin or cork. Part 2 will be around 2 weeks after part 1. I think interviews are finishing today so we should get word by the end of the week.
Yes army medicals are happening now for people who did their interviews in the first week
Alright cheers for the update lads. Think there might be something off with my emails. Might be worth a call or something on my part just to see. I didn't get that email and had an issue getting the vetting sent out to me but got the interview email fine. Out of interest when did ye do ye're interview?
Do you have any idea of what’s done in each stage? Did a medical for the Navy last week that they said covered for the army too but no mention of a second stage of it
In part 1 for army medical I did bloods, wee, eye test and electrolyte test. Think part 2 must be hearing because I don't know what else there could be
Has anybody been called for these medicals on the 3/4 August.
It's definitely hearing anyways, I'd say it could be a screening by an army doctor on the results, maybe a physical screening too?
Ah okay good stuff, did it all at once on Monday so it’s just the one for the Navy it seems!
I got the email for a medical on the 3rd in Dublin. Good luck lads!
I did my interview on the 21st of July
