2022 Executive Officer Civil Service

@Maripepe some areas you can do blended, it's usually 2 days from home and 3 in the office. It really depends on the area you will be assigned to. It might be possible in finance, hr but not in the likes of PEMS. Hope this helps.

I would have thought:

A) You COULD turn down internal offer and wait for the open as it is a completely separate competition

B) Accept the EO in your current dept and then accept another EO role on the open

OR can you accept EO in your current role and immediately go on mobility? You probably have to stay two years in the EO role but maybe not?

Has anyone ever asked PAS how they arrive at their allocation decisions? I find them a bit difficult to deal with. I don't think they like being questioned.

Anyone know how the longford panel is going

Thanks

Can I ask what county and Oom you are please

Just spotted that .. so does that mean they have cleared the current Dublin one ?

I'm fairly certain the Dublin panel will be exhausted before a new panel forms. Even with a competition opening on Friday, it'll be at least 3 months before a panel is formed. Probably 3 weeks to submit applications, then at least a week before aptitude test window which will be another week. At least a fortnight before results are announced and the probably 2 weeks notice of interview dates. The interviews probably go on for 2 to 3 weeks and then another couple of weeks before results are released. And all the above are conservative estimates, each stage could take longer.

Where did you see this about a new EO competition

I see there is a new EO competition starting for Dublin. Does anyone know or think that if you were to get through all stages of the competition would there be any option of changing county or letting your own HR dept know you made panel?

Thanks for the reply. It was wishful thinking on my part. I'm currently waiting to be called for interview, it's just a long process for people outside Dublin.

Does anyone know if COs have blended working in the Dept.Of Education? If so, how many days WFH? Also, is it straight away or do you have to see out your full 1 years probation to get it? Thank you.

I had a level 5 FETAC course that qualified me. I was unsure and nervous about it but it was approved and I got the go ahead thankfully. So if that's the same level as that yours you will be fine.

It seems to be just a brief application at this stage? The full competency examples application must only be required if you score high enough in the aptitude tests and are invited to interview? Makes sense I guess, not wasting applicants or public jobs time with applications that don’t progress.
