Anymore starting tullamore January 2024
Anyone heard anything since?
Nope, just the general email this morning about the new recruitment campaign and that now I am no.153 from 2024 intake! Blady hek, patience is a virtue. Let's hope for the next round and I have to renew my C1 learners by May '26.
Il sitting in and around the same number. Hopefully next intake. Why dont you try and do the full c1 that way there will be less stress once you get in
Is there a way to know how many people are on the panels overall? I assume the latest recruitment campaign would be for September 2026/ joining those on a panel for then too?
Hi did anyone get their contract yet for January 2026?
I dont think they've come out yet as far as I know
nope not yet I think they are just processing the documents , hopefully soon :)
Has anyone heard anything since documentation was sent?
Hi all, I’m thinking of applying in the current recruitment. When you start college do you have to stay in the town/city of the college or can you go home after every day?
nope nothing yet
I haven’t received anything but some people have regarding references and stuff ? Wondering if I’m the only one who hasn’t heard anything ?
there is no requirement to but it would depend on your personal circumstances colleges are ballinasloe,tullamore,Tallaght and cork so it would all depend on where you live and what college you end up getting. Eg I live in the north west and got Tallaght it would not be feasible to commute. Accommodation at the minute is roughly €140 a week and it’s the same in ballinasloe.
Does anyone know much about the step test? Im a bit panicked for it😅
look up the Chester step test. I’ve been practicing this on the stairs in my house 🤣
In relation to references - is the normal process for NRS to choose who you can use, you have to email you old employer the NRS reference to fill in and send directly to the NRS? This is my experience so far and taking some time to get the box ticked.
Step test Friday too!
how have people found the chester step test? was the step 30cm?
I had to contact my old employers too about the reference form, it's a long process!
Ya the step was 30cm, I thought it was grand, I was nervous before it though which didn't help😅
awh well done for passing i have mine on monday :)
did they go up to level 5 or is it just up to the end of level 4?
Thanks😊 just to the end of level 4, not sure if it's the same for everyone else!
Awh brilliant thanks for that :)
Yeah I was stopped near the end of stage 4 just over half way aswel. If your doing it in Dublin it’s a small room bring cold water and wear shorts it’s very hot.
mine stoped at the start of level 4 and I passed it too
Is it difficult?
not necessarily just focus on your breathing
For anyone who applied in the recent campaign in September... has the invitation for the supervised Verbal and analytic testing been sent out yet? The information booklet said it was due to commence the week of Nov 3rd and applicants would be notified a week beforehand.
Can anyone tell me about the medical after the step test and what it entails? Does the doctor do the step test with you again?
nope not yet! I emailed them last week enquiring about same and they said due to a huge amount of applicants they are still going through the applications and the tests will be rescheduled!
