irish prison officer recruitment 2024

as far as I’m aware the fitness test is done on the first day of training

How did interview go for those who had it this week? Did it follow usual format?

I recently had mine also, role play appeared to go well and I had examples for competencies prepared.

Any idea when the next OOM will issue after the first batch of interviews ?

you are allowed take notes for the role play but I don’t think you are allowed notes during the interview

that’s brilliant, well done. And no date for mine yet.

have you got any date for your interview yet?

Hi Guys, congratulations to everyone that passed the interview and is moving onto the next stage, I just have a quick query about the leaving cert and college results, that we need to submit I have both copies of my leaving cert and college transcripts, however I don't have a copy of the QQI Level 5 and 6 that I completed before college, despite contacting the college numerous times looking for them. My question is do you think my leaving cert results and college results would be enough to cover me?

Thanks in advance for any advice :)

There is a bleep test. A 15 metre one where you run up and down 40 times and have to have it done I'm 3 mins 30 secs and there there is another one where you run but it's handier and then you have to do few strength tests I think bench press 35 kgs a few times and hold out a shield or fire extinguisher

the test has changed tif you look it up on line it’s all the same except for 600 metre run it’s now 30 x20 metre in 3 min 40

got noting yet! Have you?

someone said 120 get called in December then 150 in new year I’d say once Christmas is over they will fly through them
