Still no sign here
Thanks so much! I've emailed support just to let them know! Could you post up here if you hear anything?
Also nothing yet
Nothing here yet. Anyone else the same?
Email received, best of luck everyone
Phew! Would you mind posting up here when you receive yours please?
No, nothing here.
Still no email yet. Anyone else the same,?
Not long now!
Emails are being sent out at 12pm today, I thought mine failed to deliver and nearly emailed them this morning 😅
Nothing yet!
Did anyone receive the email with link to the assessment yet?
Never mind, I just misread the email last night!

Does anyone who did the assessment for the role with HSE do any practice assessments to help at all? I’ve seen some things online, not sure how relevant they are
I thought the same. On a side note, still waiting on results for HSE assessment results. If we knew how we got on there, we'd have a fair idea of how these wil be.
Yes got same email today. I would think placements would be after Christmas at this stage. Good luck everyone. Hopefully we all have a positive experience.
Say if you were successful with these tests and then the interview and subsequently the vetting would you say it was likely that the actual starting date of the job would be before or after Christmas?
Same - I completed the HSE assessments, they comprised on verbal, numerical and inductive reasoning tests. 3 in total. The Garda CO email I got today mentioned 3 short tests, and its the same provider as HSE assessments (AON). Presume these will be the same?
That’s interesting to know thanks! What type of questions were on the tests? Was it job related or like maths tests etc?
Looks like the assessment is being done by the same group that handled the HSE clerical officer assessments, I completed that a couple of weeks ago. It wasn’t too bad the questions were simple enough it’s the timing that put me off, they said 9 minutes for the test but they put the first 4ish minutes towards the example section which threw me off completely. I still managed to answer almost all questions but it was a bit of a shock
I’ve got the same as well! They haven’t given much away have they!? Does anyone have any insight at what the tests could be? (Numerical, English etc) the webcam part is interesting as well….
Yes got the same email just now. What are the assessments like? Are they based on verbal, numerical and inductive reasoning?
Got this too.
I just got this
"You have recently applied for the above competition, and you will shortly be invited to take part in an online assessment. The assessment will comprise of 3 short tests and they must be completed within the allotted time frame. Testing will be conducted via Aon (our partner testing company). You will receive an email to the email address you have provided on your application form, no later than 12:00 (midday) on Wednesday 25th October 2023"
I'm the same. Sent application the start of September. Got the email "your application has been received and logged" Still waiting on anything else. I know they extended the deadline to the end of September, but said the link will be sent out mid to late September, I thought they would send it out mid to late October.
Has anyone who isn’t inter department heard back from this? I sent my application the 6th of September I’m pretty sure and have heard nothing at all!
What is the difference between Garda vetting and the enhanced 12 week long vetting. Obviously it’s somewhat, enhanced ha!
Do they have to check if you were ever pulled over by traffic unit or something?
I hope so. The interview was good. Done over zoom. The usually questions about previous jobs,my skills,good attributes and not so good. It was very relaxed tbh.
