2022 Executive Officer Civil Service

You can fill out the application for mobility on day 1 but you cannot move until you have at least 2 years done.

Childcare is such a dose! Having a similar wobble myself but I don't have a start date.

When I could select my locations the form said I had to accept a role in my preferred location or lose my place on the panel but if I was offered a role outside of my selected regions i could refuse and remain on the panel.

Did you have this? If not the older system was if you were offered a role more than 45km from your registered address you could refuse and stay on the panel?

However you will find childcare and it will be fine. A pal of mine had to get 3 minders to cover all 5 days earlier this year but since got it sorted

If it were me I'd ask PAS what options were available, asking won't go against you at least then you'll know

@CosmicTurnip fingers crossed 🤞 would be nice to start the new year with a new job

Anyone who had their interview for Offaly, how did it go?? How did you find it & have you received results & departments you’ll be sent to yet? I’m hoping I’ll be included in the next round of EOI’s 🙏🏻

Any update on the OOM for Tipp/Limerick area?

They are only starting nterviews for the first batch in Limerick in the next couple of weeeks. I think they sent EOIs to 7 open and 2 inter.

Lads, I'll be honest. I did crap in this contest lol.

I filled out everything very well, explaining in detail how I worked with my team during work experience, software I use etc.. still did quite badly.

I'm not trying to throw a pity party, but is it just that I'm still in college and haven't much experience yet that I ranked low?

Will my OOM go up a lot after I graduate?

Thanks

Have you had an interview yet?

Your initial OOM is based only on your performance in the tests.

The second OOM is based on your performance at interview. Your application form provides background information to the interview panel but has no real impact on the OOM following interview.

I'm sure this has been answered countless times but I'm struggling to find a definitive answer. I'm a CO since 2020 on pay scale point 3, will I start on the first EO pay scale point or go up a point? Basically how much will I be on once I'm an EO. Thanks

I was point five as a CO and was put on EO point 1 too.

Hi Onthefence,

I haven't had an interview yet no, Guess ill just study harder for the tests next time.

So the application form where you fill out your work experience dosent have ANY effect on your initial OOM at all?

@furrybones you should query that. I have 2 friemd went straight to EO scale 2 from CO scale 5.

Look at your Salary, the actual numerical value and find the closest to it on the EO scale.

That's where you start.
