    Regarding the bleep test is it a case we keep going after level 8.8 or will they stop us once we reached the level?

    I wonder when the panels for last year's recruitment will run out and they'll start using this year's panels

    Are they going to mix people from 2022 with 2023 recruitment, in Templemore?

    Oh yea sure they want full classes, so I'm just trying to figure out how many are left on the panel from last year to estimate when they might start using ourselves

    if you call the HR number there's a guy called <mod snip> working there, he's always good for a bit of information, he won't answer the question directly but he'll tell you "not to book holidays in September" kind of thing

    Only dying to find out when the physical is, does anyone know what happens if you can't attend the date they give you and if you were to fail a component, how long before you can try again

    I think if you fail you get one reattempt at it.

    Surely there is some sort of selection regarding the date of the test.

    Does anyone know if we can defer an offer of a start date? And if so how many times can you do that?

    When I emailed HR they said background are on going but that's taking a while I see.

    I was placed 170 for interview stage 3 and 3018 stage 1 if that make sense

    Does anybody know if they take more to check the suitability for those living abroad?

    Also, when do we know about the dates for our medical exam? I know it is after the physical test, but do they take long to get into contact, or do you leave Templemore already knowing the date?

    Ive been going 5/6k runs to prepare for the beep test. I also do the beep test every now and then (measure out 20m distance and get the audio online) .

    Set my timer for 1 minute and try and surpass my sit-up requirement. I’m currently getting 40 in one minute , when the minimum is 35 for my grouping.

    Then try and surpass my push-up requirement as well.

    Anyone filling out their Form B what are you filling out for the references section ? Especially the part where it asks for a reference from a person who have known you for at least 3 years from your Second/third level institute ?
