Recruitment 2021 (Closed)

Trojan01 · 07-04-2022 08:47AM

Has anyone from previous intakes / recruitment campaigns known of officers transferring from England or Wales and if so what the process is for them after the Deloitte stages? E.g. have they been allocated a position in a “Fast Track” group? Has their vetting been completed quicker than the typical 3+ month timeframe? Just a general query on if anything is done to get them in ahead of others considering they’re already a substantive Police Constable and the PSNI face a continuous strain due to lack of uniformed officers. Thanks.

From what I know, there is no transfer process for the PSNI. They recognise service on case by case basis meaning you might not have to complete a probationary period or complete a shortened probation. Apparently they respect your pay scale also.

I also have heard that any courses you may have completed within your current force (I.e. Standard Response Course etc) they may recognise but would imagine yet again case by case. As for vetting I’m not too sure but will try and find out. I’d imagine serving in another force should surely help but from the information the PSNI provide it doesn’t put you at any advantage throughout the recruitment process.

A couple of us in the 2020 campaign are in this position. Unfortunately it definitely doesn't help you in the process even once it gets past the Deloitte stages. My vetting only took 3 months but not sure if that is why. Apparently you send proof of service when you get an offer and they may adjust your salary although they won't commit to this or confirm your salary before offer.

Nope! Not sure if that method is being implemented, seeing as they still have the previous campaign 🤷‍♂️

I don’t see people being fast tracked especially after recruitment stating they’re going slower than usual due to the funding. Results are 13th May.

Just wondering if anyone on here still waiting to do AC? I’m starting GV for another role the week results are due and getting nervous but excited to finally be in PSNI even if it’s not the end goal!

SEA I take it? If so. Do not do it.

avjjken · 16-04-2022 01:01PM

No not SEA. I wasn’t going to take it but got location so happy enough for now.

Sorry if this is a stupid question. Just wondering what SEA is?

Is it a Station Enquiry Assistant?

Yeah station enquiry assistant. One of the worst jobs out there imo. Though you do get an insight into niche and control works etc. you’ll end up having more knowledge of it that most in service. I can remember so many asking how to use it. It’s only a good job for that knowledge.

rouge_one · 24-04-2022 08:49PM

Does anyone know if AC’s are still on going or have finished? It’s not long til results come out and the itch of not knowing is unbearable. Especially for those who had done there’s late January early February. Gd luck to everyone though.

the wait is killing me honestly haven’t got high hopes but would be nice to know the outcome regardless! good luck all

Unknown117 · 28-04-2022 03:53PM

when do we reckon the results for the AC will be sent out then? i know it states the date in the email of when they will be posted but for the stages so far it’s always been earlier and as some people have stayed if all AC’s are completed they may send them early. Good luck to everyone! hopefully we all get good news.

Probably wouldn't expect anything until at least the week of when they were meant to release. Was more or less the same with IST, only a few days early. Still won't stop me incessantly checking this forum for updates or refreshing my emails 3 or 4 times a day lol

Byc_moze · 28-04-2022 07:24PM

Well, I think everyone is more less the same 😂 forum, join psni website, email. And again, and again, and again 😂

avjjken · 29-04-2022 03:18PM

Got my email and passed Assessment Centre just to upload a few things. Relief knowing it’s passed! Good luck everyone else!

Blueandtwo1320 · 29-04-2022 03:22PM

Just got the email as well!! Happy days! Over the moon. Stomach near hit the floor when I seen the email. Look forward to seeing where I am on the merit list but at least for now I have passed!

johnny990 · 29-04-2022 03:37PM

Just got the email. Passed the AC. A bit surprised and relieved too.

Have a good weekend guys

rouge_one · 29-04-2022 03:42PM

I just got the same email wat a suprise

Skyhook44 · 29-04-2022 03:49PM

Got the email there myself does the email definitely mean that you have passed the assessment centre?

Narwahls · 29-04-2022 03:52PM

Passed there myself, email went to promotions and just skimmed past and saw the name lol. Glad that came early

Yeah, the Join PSNI website has now been updated too. "All candidates have been contacted to inform them of the outcome of their assessment centre"

Si_zx10r · 29-04-2022 04:04PM

Passed myself this time round, really happy after failing last year by one mark. Well done those who passed and anyone getting dear John emails, keep the head up and go again, it will happen eventually 👍

29-04-2022 04:06PM

I passed too! I guess we’re fast tracked?? My stomach hit the ground when I got the email . Congratulations everyone

new2022scs · 29-04-2022 04:16PM

I haven't stopped crying. Soooo happy. Well done everyone & those that didn't pass....keep going, this was my 5th attempt after 18 years

georgie1305 · 29-04-2022 04:22PM

just got my email too! I'm so happy! Is this a fast track email?

either way I'm over the moon. well done to everyone that passed!

Blueandtwo1320 · 29-04-2022 04:25PM

No it isn't a fast track email, just an email to all candidates whether they have passed/failed.

Narwahls · 29-04-2022 04:37PM

Good news for everyone who's passed though. Now the proper waiting game starts I guess

johnny990 · 29-04-2022 04:49PM

Good lad. Just missed last time too by 1.5,,%. Glad I give it another go.

Gotta keep up with my fitness now.
