    A week it took for my results, I know others that had them within 2 days

    I've roughly 25 ahead of me too in Donegal. Worried I won't get the shout this time either as seems to he moving very slowly but August was peak holiday season so recruitment might pick up now a little. I am told too, by people I know already in CO and EO roles that you'd be surprised about the amount of people that turn down the offers. Plus was told 2 people this year had accepted an offer and given a start date and never turned up on their first day and were never heard of again 😂 so I'm hoping a few more do that ahead of me

    Hi,

    Is previous teaching experience for the Dept of education as secondary school teacher count towards increments if I am now working as a clerical officer in dsp? Probably not...just wanted it confirmed if possible, thanks!!

    Approx 415 a week

    Thank you, would you have any info on being offered an initial assignment of maternity leave, even though being on a permanent panel not temporary CO panel? I would have thought you would just be assignment a permanent position right off the bat


    Just to add it is county council not civil service, not sure if that matters

    For those like me waiting to hear back from clearance regarding garda vetting for 3 months for a position in AGS this is worrying. I was applying for a CO position in the Civil Service with the hope of promotion in the future, the possibility of mobility and flexi time.

    Just got my assignment - Department of Social Protection in Limerick. Anyone know anything about what it's like there?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 97 ✭✭burkemg


    Hi, yes it matters. This is a forum for public (civil) service for a panel advertised on public jobs at the beginning of 2022, perhaps you'll find another forum for Co council panels .

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7 amclol75


    Hi Wennon, what number are you on the panel for Westmeath, I got an expression of interest last week and I am trying to gauge where they are at. Thanks



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 Wennon

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7 amclol75


    Thanks for the reply, I am 167 on panel so it looks like I will have a wait. Hope your interview goes well

    Has anybody heard how the Offaly panel is moving, thanks



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38 citygirl22


    I was told I was being considered for an area in cork but I wasn’t given the department, I then had to submit all my references details and fill in Garda vetting , which I got notice yesterday to say that is done , did you get told straight away what department you are going to before or after this process?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38 citygirl22


    @Jean74 congratulations 👏I can’t help you there with the courts. Did you get told this after your clearance process ? I’m still waiting to find out the Department I just know the area in cork.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 52 ✭✭seamus92


    Is publicjobs.ie down for anyone else? It says "server unavailable" for me.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60 ✭✭RichPersonInsideAPoor


    It’s down until 1pm today



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44 ciara_mar


    I’m Kildare but I emailed the person I’m dealing with in clearance and asked her what department I’m being considered for. She has no problem telling me 😊



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38 citygirl22


    Ok thanks. I might just do that so 👍

    I got the above reply from PAS on August 9th, so I don't think you too far away. I'm no 165 Westmeath



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 RC78


    @citygirl22, I was told I was under consideration for Limerick City. I got an email when the pre-employment checks were complete, and then got my assigned department shortly after.

    Tipp is an odd one They had a batch of 20 start in revenue in nenagh a few weeks ago. I'd assume a second batch could be called around Christmas.

    Its also an extremely competitive panel. To score in the top 50 you need almost full marks in the psychometric tests.the top100 are all above 5800.

    Also a lot of people apply when they currently hold CS jobs as the panel tends to move faster than mobility. So people wanting to move from Templemore to Clonmel etc.
