    lads i think youre winding your selfs up. I think what happens , happens. For exmple if you dont have the tech knowledge you wont gain it overnight now will you? I think that they already know who they want to hire and they just need to finish the process they started.

    more of a brainstorm than anything else I'd say, not really too wound up about it myself, done that too many times for other interviews ... I'm sure the lurkers found a few valuable points in there ... I know I did

    dont count on it interview i had 40 were called to interview for 8 jobs

    there's 50+ jobs (70-75 doing the rounds), with it being whittled down to 120-150 for interviews supposidly ....

    even by your numbers, 1 in 5 is still a good chance, it's that sort of pessimism that get people knowhere

    I would definitely imagine there is more calls to be made the interviews are continuing into next week and they only finished the assessment days today so they couldn't be done yet. Good Luck though it could be like the assessments they might hold more interviews than expected.

    Same may get a good night sleep. You could stay up all night revising or pondering who is doing the interviews but we will know soon enough.

    I've been following this thread for weeks but only feel the need to write now as the panic is setting in! I'm sure if i get an interview i'll get a place but the waiting game is killing me! Did my assessment on the 17th.. anyone from around then hear anything yet? Also is there many females waiting for a reply?.. I was the only girl there at my assessment and i've heard there are hardly any women left at this stage of the process! i'm unsure if this is a good thing or a bad thing for me? Freaking out now! :P well done to anyone who got an interview! :D


    Hey!!

    Mine was the 17th too in the morning and I was also the only female in my group.

    Got a call at 9:20 this morning to say I have an interview on Monday at half 8.

    I see you got one too, congratulations and best of luck.

    At my assessment they said they it would be at least three weeks, four at the very most, before we heard and Ian said he would ring everyone either way so there's still plenty of time for everyone.

    Now to do a bit of research!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14 brick100


    Im sure if you showed as much enthusiasm at the assessment as you do on this your sure to get an interview! Good Luck! :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭spicymchaggis


    Mine was the 15th, I guess that is me ruled out and I was in it for the long haul. Ah well, maybe something similar will pop up again
