Clerical Officer in the Civil Service 2022 | Civil Service - publicjobs.ie
@gill0108 I had my interview on 28 April. On 16th June the told me what department I'm going to. An Garda Siochana. I'm just waiting on Garda vetting now which can take up to 12 weeks.
Hi, In case anyone is wondering what oom they are on. I got called for clearance. I'm number 1324 in Dublin
@Dublin.85 Thank you so much I only had mine 23 of June maybe I’ll be waiting awhile 🥴🥴
@cdoran what batch are you in if you don’t mind me asking?
Batch 7
@cdoran thanks I’m number 1527 batch 8 hopefully won’t be waiting much longer to hear anything.. seen on this people have been waiting a long time though from interview. I done mine less then two weeks ago so maybe I’m asking for miracles 🤣
Hi there,
I had my interview end of may and Passed it, gave my location choices (Cork) . Does anyone know how long typically you will have to wait until they get back to you. It seems like 6 weeks or so seeing what people are saying on this?
How long does it take yo be called for interview after you give choice of location
I was waiting about a week after choice of location to be called for interview.
Just got my placement for dept of education. It's Blanchardstown adult education. I live in Dublin 3 near city center. This is very awkward for me to get to with traffic being very heavy around here. I was hoping for Marlborough street as I could walk to work and save on costs. Not sure what to do now.
I had my interview on June 3rd so another 2 weeks you should hear. It’s torture waiting 🤣
@cdoran torture is right!!! It’s very long process but worth it … Hopefully I get called 🫣🫣 does clearance email or call you when they offer you a position
They send you an email with documents and then you fill up them up and send them back. Then they will send you a link to online Garda vetting.
I got email about location services before an offer of an interview.
I just got emailed for my location preferences for Laois and Offaly. Nice to see some progress at long last.
From reading back a few pages it looks like the interview stage isn't too far after the location selection stage.
What was the wait time from location preferences to interview stage for some of you? It's just with less than 6months left on this current panal I'm nervous I might not get trough all the stages in time and have to reapply next year.
Might be a stupid question but I received a request to choose my preferred locations for Wexford, and it said batch 2. Anyone know what that means?
For anyone else who may want to know:
"To date we have called up to Order of Merit 30 for Co Clare and 105 for Co Galway"
Surprised Galway is moving so slow tbh.
@cdoran thank you so much ❤️
No.
You can apply to do various tax exams etc. via the Revenue but as for made to sit exams kinda way, then no.
During training you will do exams/tests but they are nothing to worry about, the trainers are very helpful and will guide you through. Just going back over info that was discussed during training.
I am on batch 5, and passed the interview but I haven’t been called for the clearance 🙁🙁
Email PAS and ask them whether there's any chance they might change it to Marlborough Street, no guarantee but you've got nothing to lose. However, once you start commuting you might find out its not too bad.
Hi @JayIre I got my location form for offaly about 1 week after my interview
@nrt (sorry it won't let me delete @)
Hi all, my Garda vetting got complete today. (2 Garda vettings. 1 for pas and 1 for position in an Garda Siochana). Only 7 working days after I submitted. They said it could take up to 12 weeks. Surprised at how quick it was. Anyone know they next steps? They contact my employer for reference,? and then do they tell me my location and department within an Garda siochana? And start date ect...
nobody from this competition ended up in customs as they ran a separate campaign.
Hi All,
I'm only home from holidays last night and seen the email sent on Monday to say I was being called for clearance for a position in Dublin but didn't say where.
Do they normally tell you in your clearance email where the position is located or is that after I send back my forms for clearance?
Hi Folks,
Just got asked to give my location preference for Donegal - my OOM is 347. Anyone in the same batch? Also what's the story with interview prep?
Got some bad news about my current private sector job last week so this is coming at a good time, though it feels like forever since I applied for this!
@Emmah82 I was told where I will be going in Dublin but not exact location. I was told before the Garda vetting and clearance stage. Garda vetting only complete yesterday so waiting patiently to find out exact location.
My current employer won’t allow references via work email. What happens now ?
Got an email there as well today from clearance for Garda vetting etc for Dublin. No word about where, but didn’t think it’d be so quick. Only had my interview on the 23rd. OOM 1412 for Dublin and in batch 8 for anyone curious
