Higher Executive Officer 2024

Best of luck to anyone that's already had their interview or with an interview date.

Has anyone here been called for Longford location? Was on the panel after the last InterD but it closed before they got to my number, hard being so close but yet so far!!

Aw that's miserable, hope you feel better soon. I'm just seeing in the above comments that your interview is the 23rd? Is the report due this week then? Email them as soon as possible, no harm in asking what your options are. They rescheduled mine for 2 days earlier than they scheduled me because I was going to be on a flight, but I guess that was the same week of the interviews so might be different if you're asking for the following week/s. Best of luck sorting it out.

I am now under consideration but I am unsure how long the assessment process would take - and if I would actually get an official offer -as I heard that it would take in a very long time until I actually got an official offer. I submitted all required documents. I got interviewed in early August and was informed to be placed in a panel by the end of August.

My interview went well and there were 5 interviewers. During the interview, I was informed each area they were going to exam me, e.g. Leadership, or Decision making. Tried to answer my questions with at least a clear and strong example at my daily work in my current company would help a lot.

Good luck folks.

I am in 2024 HEO panel for ICT

I know😭

Results are out. Unfortunately I didn't get it.. I was so close though. 16 in one of the capabilities, qualifying score is 18. Does anyone know what the appeal process is?

Best of luck to everyone!!! 🤞🏻

So sorry to hear you didn’t pass. It was a crazy tough interview /process by all accounts.

I haven’t heard of anyone else getting results yet. Two colleagues here waiting and still nothing.

sorry to hear this. So tough after jumping through so many hoops.

Can I ask if the marking is similar to what they said it would be in the video?

Just received my results. I am in the 20’s on the oom. Very shocked. Anyone any idea how long I might be waiting to hear about a position?

Same here. I suppose it depends on how much demand for HEOs there is already and how many from batch 1.1 passed, essentially making the final batch of us smaller. Hopefully demand outstrips supply at the moment 😂

I'd absolutely love if (by chance) I was offered my preferred Department!

Well done!!! Congrats!!

Ah, I guess folks are discussing for people who are working in Civil Service already in this thread? I am just "brand new" applying from private sector. Never worked in Civil Service previously :D.

You're in the wrong thread pal, you'll only succeed in confusing yourself and/or others if you post or read advice because the competition you are in will be run very differently. This is the thread for the HEO Interdepartmental competition 2024. It is a general competition for the HEO grade for those already in the Civil Service. Compared to the ICT competition you are in the running for, the rules are different, the process is different, the expectations are different and the eligibility is different.

By all means read the thread, but if you contribute, you risk confusing people, including yourself.

Can I ask for some advice please? I'm currently off sick with a bad chest infection. I did consider asking to postpone my interview but decided to get on with it. I did the report and submitted it yesterday. Some was written before I got sick, the rest done yesterday while dying. Reading back on it today I can see there is a distinct difference between what I wrote while well and what I wrote yesterday.

My question is; should I say this at the interview? It's like the report was written by two different people 😆😆😆

I had placed 10 on Stage 2. So I was so disappointed to hear the results of the interview, and to have been so close also…
