Open competition for appointment to the position of Crime and Data Analyst (EO Grade).

Congrats all due to start training on Monday or in Feb. Best of luck with the new position, let us know how you get on! :)

The only ones I know of are 9th Jan and 20th Feb. Im in the Feb one.

ghey told me it’s a 5 week training with 3 weeks in Templemore so will be last 2 weeks in Dublin for me, or wherever you’re assigned.

Did you have to do an interview or did they skit request you send in the documents for clearance once they reached your number is OOM? No movement in Donegal unfortunately

Hiya, just a note for anyone on the Dublin panel - I am low 20s and got asked for clearance about two weeks ago.

For those who already went through training/have been working for a while (also as Crime and Policing Analyst, or is it the same role just different title?):

are there any books or manuals you would recommend to read for such a role? Also, is there an association or society for analysts in Ireland?

Thank you.

Has anyone applied for the Senior Crime and Data Analyst role?

I applied as well, selected Dublin and Kildare

Also applied for Galway and Clare

Wonder when we'd start hearing back?

Got a message on Thursday that shortlisting is ongoing and results of same be released mid - end of June.

Nope, nothing. Applied for a different role last week and shortlisting had been completed by yesterday, and online tests sent out to be completed by next week. It's crazy the time difference between competitions.

Message out from public jobs today. Anyone else think the message was bizarre? I was outside the top 40 and placed on a reserve panel but it would be interesting to know how the application forms were scored. Also my preference is for outside Dublin so impossible to know where you are on the panel for specific counties or is that irrelevant as I’m on the reserve panel.

Same. The lack of detailed feedback seems strange. Usually there would be a score given for each competency with a minimum standard to reach in each competency but for them to state some applications demonstrated sufficiently strong evidence while another group demonstrated sufficient evidence is so vague. After waiting so long I’d expect more feedback. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were just under pressure to complete the shortlisting and rushed it through and thats why it’s so vague.

Congrats on being shortlisted. My message stated candidates up to 40 on the order of merit were being called for interview. I presume it’s nationwide.

Placed in the single digits OOM for Clare and Galway for the Senior Crime and Data Analyst role, so a waiting game it is.

Would anybody have the PDF for the role? Can't seem to find it

Thanks if so
