    Has anyone else been called for a medical?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35 Corkgal007


    Unfortunately nothing yet @Sorcha97 .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19 Murphy2002


    @Sorcha97 have you been called for the medical yet?



  • Posts: 25 [Deleted User]


    @Murphy2002 thanks for asking! I haven’t heard anything :(

    I’m hoping my bad exam wasn’t the reason. I got 100% in the spatial reasoning re-exam but I blanked during the deductive logical reasoning and got the majority of them wrong. I’ve gotten into another apprenticeship but I really want the ESB!

    Have you had your medical yet?

    Nope it's next week, I'd say u got it probably just calling a few people everyday, if u got this far I don't think you would not get called for the medical.

    @Murphy2002 Awh thank you, I really hope you’re right!

    I emailed them just there so hopefully I’ll know soon.

    @Corkgal007 Were you asked to redo the tests?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35 Corkgal007


    @Dildert123 wasn’t called for retest . Do you think im out of the running ? A friend i know working for ESB said this yr they only retested a random sample and no news was good news !! very frustrating process though .Would i have got a “not successful “ email by now ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35 Corkgal007


    @lawlor09 my interview was also 1st June in Portlaoise . Im from Cork .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12 lawlor09


    Just a waiting game so hopefully we don’t need to do retest and still get called. Shurly they would have sent out “unsuccessful” email by now

    Well done @Sorcha97



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35 Corkgal007


    @Sorcha97 Can i ask you who you emailed ? I would like to know one way or another.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37 Just1more


    Considering applying for the apprenticeship at moneypoint.


    Can anyone tell me what time the shifts start there? Just looking at logistics of getting there via the Tarbert ferry.


    Also, is there a specific college you have to attend for the theory portions of the apprenticeship or do you just register with your local IT/university?

    @Corkgal007 thank you!! I really hope you get called for yours!

    I emailed apprentices@esb.ie

    They just emailed this evening..

    “Dear Candidate,

     

    Thank you for your application for the ESB Networks Electrical Apprenticeship Programme 2022.

     

    Following on from your interview, we would like to let you know that we are still processing applications. Due to the high volume of applications we receive, we aim to provide you with an update on the status of your application as soon as possible.

     

    Thank you for your patience.”

    Yes i got the same @lawlor09 . I was going to email them but didn’t get a chance. I suppose at least its not a no . @Dildert123 do you know from past experience if we are still in with a chance ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 74 ✭✭Dildert123


    @Corkgal007

    You were saying that you were talking to someone in the ESB so I'd take their advice because I've only went through this process once.

    I heard absolutely nothing after my interview last year and got the rejection after others had the aptitudes done.

    I never got the email that @Lawlor got.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9 ollie231


    Just got the same email that yous got👍hope we hear either way soon this waiting game is a pain



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9 ollie231


    Hi do we need to reply to that email what is the CorrespondenceCode about?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,781 ✭✭✭clappyhappy


    My son got the same email today as @lawlor09 so hopefully, fingers crossed. Congratulations to those who got to the next stage.
