    @Dildert123, @veevay Well done, best of luck with it. Can I ask where are the interviews being held or are they remote? Were they in contact with you by email or phone?

    Well done @Sorcha97 best of luck with it. What date did they give you for your interview. I presume they will be run over a couple of weeks given the number of applicants

    For those that have applied and haven't heard anything back yet, when you check your applied jobs on the ESB careers site is it still showing " assessment "?

    For those that have heard back has it changed to " interview " ?

    I personally haven't heard back yet, just curious if I'm still in with a chance of hearing back.

    @murphef I haven't heard anything back yet and it still says "assessment". If I'm not mistaken I think their interviews normally take place over the course of a month because they have such a large volume of candidates, so all is not lost yet anyway. I'm open to correction though.

    @murphef @mtb_sends


    Well lads I had a quick look at my account and mine has interview on it.


    It was strange this year they usually send out emails to show people where they are but there were none this year only a call about an interview.

    @Dildert123 Congrats on the Interview. Unfortunately I didn't make the cut. Just to let you know the status will change to "we regret to inform you that you have not been shotlisted" or something along those lines if your unsuccessful and you get an email confirming this. Best of luck to all who were shortlisted for interview 👍️

    I must go on and check mine again.

    Just checked mine again there and it now says "interview" but it's dated from last week. Still haven't heard anything.


    @Corkgal007 when was yours dated?


    Hoping I haven't missed the email/call

    If you're Cork based and your status has changed to "interview" I think you may be getting a call today or tomorrow so keep an eye on your phones.

    Thanks @murphef interview went very well. Think its all girls this week for interviews in Portlaoise. Very slow process .Think they are also taking a break for 3 weeks due to leaving cert exams starting next week so I was told if I make it through to medical it will be in 3 weeks . The long waits are a killer but I presume that's expected with such a large amount applying.
