    Results of interviews released today. Delighted with my result. No.2 on my OOM in my county.

    Well done. Just got news myself that my OOM is 7 in my chosen area.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Well done. I’m sure it’ll be a long process ahead, but hard not to get excited.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    Just wondering if anyone knows where training takes place. In your chosen area perhaps? TIA

    Did you get a start date or anything yet? I’m still in the vetting process



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    No I've no start date yet. I'm same, still in vetting process. I was just wondering where the training might be held if I should get that far 😂

    Thank you much appreciated



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Let me know when you get the email to say vetting is finished. Be interested to see how long it takes for people.

    Yes no problem at all



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    So I got an email today to say vetting process completed and a disclosure made to Garda Civilian Human Resources. They say the disclosure just means vetting is complete. Not sure what happens next..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    That’s brilliant. From what I understand, the next step is they contact your current employer for a reference. After that, your file with PAS is complete and they send it to AGS. They contact you then with your start details. Best of luck. Hope I’m not too far away..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    Thanks. It has been a much quicker process so far than I thought it would be!! Nerves beginning to kick in now lol.

    I imagine you'll hear something soon too. Best of luck



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Yes, looks a lot quicker than previous years. Were you about 7 weeks waiting in vetting?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    No, it was almost exactly 4 weeks since I sent the papers in to hearing back yesterday. Extremely fast!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Also got an email from PAS this morning to say vetting is back and permission for them to contact my present employer. Moving fast…



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    That's fantastic. Things moving very quickly..!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Yes, reference from my current employer emailed back this morning so hopefully not too long now. Not easy to work in a place, when they know you are leaving 😂😅



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Looking back at my emails, I got this email myself 5 weeks ago. Think that’s the first strand of vetting. Still has to go through 2 more strands.

    So maybe not as quickly as I first thought then and I've probably a little while longer to wait. But hopefully once the references are in it won't take too long. Once they know I'm leaving is the part I'm dreading the most tbh so the quicker the better!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Yes, I had 5 weeks to wait from that original email to PAS contacting my current employer. I’m in that stage now, where references have been sent, and my employer knows I’m going. Although, I have to say, my employer is absolutely fine about it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    Thanks for that. At least I have more of an idea now. Hope mine is as understanding 😁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Received my start date today🎉



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Shiney71


    Fantastic!! 🎊🎉 That took no time.

    Wishing you the very best of luck 😁

    Hi, does anyone know if you are asked to submit audiology report and fill in all the forms does it mean that there is a position available after the clearance will come back all good? I emailed PAS and got an email back that they don't know when the position will become available. So is this a standard practise and you may not get a start date for a while?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭rednose


    Really not sure, but the fact they have asked you to pay for an audiology report, surely they feel there could be a job there. Only guessing though.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18 ccmarch


    Would have said that and also clearance would not be up to date but sure look it, will wait and see. Thanks anyway.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1 roodug


    Hey! Can I ask what county you received your start date for? Currently waiting for mine in Dublin, such a long process

    Hi. I'm not sure where to enquire with these questions so can anyone tell me if the Call Centre has now relocated from Tramore to Waterford Garda Station as was indicated in the introduction notes?

    Also, would pre-booked holidays be honoured. Thanks in advance 🙂
