A thread to keep each other up to date about where we all are in the process
Hair sample can show anything up to almost a year. Tablets are fine. If you’re taking illegal substances, you probably should consider another career 😀
but yes, you get drugs tested. Which would be expected and normal enough for any police force.
With regards to the stats online is there 424 currently going through the Pca and medical etc ? And 200 odd still left to do Pca and medical ?
anyone heard if any more classes have been confirmed?
the normal run a class oct/nov but am really not sure at all , if not it will defo be next year
The Policing Board usually have their annual resource plan around this time of the year, I think it was in July last year? So I would guess something regarding further intakes wether they happen or not will be mentioned.
my mate got a call today for the coming months reserve list, was asked to go to induction shortly.
-edited by Turner to remove specific dates
Do you know roughly where on the merit list they are?
How long does the induction typically last? Do.you need to bring lunch with you? Are you allowed your phone in?
Email out regarding new intakes!
I wonder how big the classes will be?
there still 250+ people who haven’t did vetting , Pca or medical I say they would be in the classes next year , those people waiting and ones just to do medical I say will be this year
Well if each class has between 30-34 like the ones in April, May and July and the intakes are monthly, then 210-238 people will go into GV in the new confirmed intakes. But the classes could contain 50 people which was the case for the 2020 campaign.
the classes are held in 50s, my friend had induction other day and the classes are in 50s
What is the timeline then from receiving the call, to induction and then start date?
I still haven’t got my vetting back from February, anyone else still waiting on theirs from that time frame?
..
Mine has been away since early April.
from that email that was sent out yesterday. does that mean the whole 2021 campaign candidates will be in GV come March 2025? Or am I reading that wrong?
I have seen that some of you have applied to English forces. Is it correct that if you go into an English force and return to the PSNI, your salary and possible rank and pension carry over? Is that correct? Sorry if that’s a stupid question.
Rank only carries for senior officers.
Service and pension carries
but not the salary?
vetting forms can take l2 weeks so wouldn’t worry if you haven’t heard from vetting yet
service carries so yes salary carries
great. Are you in the job or on the list?
No. If it’s classes of 50 as someone said, “regularly” between September and March and given that its monthly intakes which it doesn’t say if it is or not, then the max number of new student officers would be 350. Making a total of 432 student officers from the 2021 campaign. And there is currently 693 candidates still in the campaign. Thats given that no one fails a managed stage.
For those of you who are still awaiting the vetting are you in and around the 200 -230 mark on the merit list?
Waiting on mine coming back. Early 500s
my friend really late 290s I think she on the July reserve list
so am really not sure where they are in terms of merit list , am 670s waiting on medical date just
