    Would anyone have an idea time wise of when you hear from Garda Siochana when you put in your application, and it’s after the closing date.. to know if you have been accepted to stage 1. Or how do they contact you to let you know?

    thank you

    I would say around 3-4weeks where they will let you know when the stage 1 tests are , with the tests shorty after that.

    Moderator note:

    I have had to delete some posts that fall afoul of our rules on mentioning companies that sell online or in-person classes. Sadly in the past, we have had sneaky companies register multiple bogus accounts praising them to the stars. I have no reason to believe this is happening here, but as you will all learn is that you have to obey the rules, even the ones you don’t agree.

    the written exercise is 30 minutes. But it says no set time limit for numerical along with verbal reasoning. Then it says both should take typically between 15 to 20 mins.. so does that mean for sure there is no time limit? Thanks

    Reading the booklet just reminds me i should have listened in english class.

    From what I can see there is no time limit for the verbal and numerical reasoning, but it will be factored into your order of merit. The verbal reasoning and assessment questionnaire are what people need to be hitting a 100% on, that seems to be what will decide the order of merit. Please correct me if im wrong 😅

    Thanks…

    Is job simulation included too? As when I was on one of the talks they said it wouldn’t be included in this intake… but I think it is.

    Yeah , thankfully got a decent score and had a good order of merit .

    I though I done terrible when I finished the tests, but I done grand. Even if you got 60% in a test , that could be one of the highest scores and give you a great Order of Merit.

    Yeah me haha dreading the maths one. Not looking forward to it at all. I did it last year. I passed ( don’t ask me how) think it was pure luck. Didn’t do well in the interview so that’s why i didn’t go any further. Hoping this is my year.

    Does it have to be completed in 1 sitting or can you do 2 sections then take a break and start the last 2 for example?

    Also, does anyone know how long after the closing date we will get our results?

    Do we get a score or just a merit number meaning we have passed?

    If I remember correctly, you start each test individually. Once you start a test you are timed. So let’s say you click to start Numerical. You need to complete that test in one sitting.

    However, I believe that you can do one test and finish it (e.g. numerical) , then come back any time within the test dates and finish the rest of them. Don’t leave it to the last minute obviously in case you have issues.

    Im sure you could clarify this with Public Jobs or it might state it in the instructions. As these things could potentially change.

    It was around 3-4 weeks for us (2023 campaign) If I remember correctly.
