I would say that there is no dress code, last thing you should be worrying about is your hair cut and what shoes your wearing. At this stage the only thing your being judged on is your performance in the tests. No one will be watching what your wearing so wear whatever clothes your gonna be comfortable in for an hour and a half while doin an exam.

When I went for my enlisted recruitment fitness test, I was sent back to get into civvies and was walked into a Lt Cols office to for a rather random and out-of-the-blue interview. Anything can happen, mate.

Best of luck to all tomorrow, hope it goes well

tomato1988 · 26-06-2013 01:58PM

how many groups did the psychometric testing does anyone know?

Ardennes1944 · 26-06-2013 02:12PM

I think that went well anyway! There was about 25 of us there I reckon

Podge Kelly · 26-06-2013 04:00PM

Have preliminary interview for air corps on Friday, not a clue what to expect myself to be asked. I know shirt and slacks is a must.
Anyone else been through it before?

Yeah I think it went okay but just remember we need to be at the top of the pile to get through

I wonder what percentage of each group of 25-30 get through? I wasn't expecting that job assessment thing

it seemed okay though

what'd you get answered in the verbal and numerical?

The first air corps interview? You're very late! Leaving cert? They're very nice about the whole thing there. Full suit.

@ts I actually got all the numerical one this time done and had a minute left to go over it :eek: and the verbal one I had about 6left which is 10 less than last time! I liked the scenario questions afterwards alright

haras09 · 27-06-2013 01:23PM

Does anyone have any idea about the ratio of men to women?

I was in for the army/navy one yesterday not air corps , yup I finished the LC last thursday and yourself? I finished the numerical one too and had a minute or two left, had ten left in the verbal and finished the scenario ones. Only thing I'm worried about now is people getting extra marks overall for already being PDF/RDF and also people who already have degrees, I'm at a disadvantage there. pretty anxious to get in if I'm honest

target shooter 13 · 27-06-2013 10:56PM

Sorry I seem to have answered part of the question directed to podge..

It wasn't me! · 27-06-2013 11:36PM

Extra marks are awarded at the end of the competition, not this stage, no?

Naoise1234 · 28-06-2013 03:57PM

Ardennes1944 · 28-06-2013 04:00PM
