Thanks rostalof.. Interview was good. It was , as you said , for 10 week contracts in September and November , but it was a panel for all of mayos' departments so I hope something comes up for you before your college course ��. You never know?!

Have you heard anything back yet?

Nada, zilch, not a single thing!

Has anyone on reserve panels been interviewed yet?

I doubt it, I got top group and still no word of an interview.

Really. They taking their time this year. Not looking good so as had applied in march picked april to september slot thinking I hear back sooner if on reserve. I heard back in April that I am on reserve haven't heard anything since for both places I got on reserve for.

I have to pick somewhere else next year. Keep being put on reserve the past three years.

I think there won't be any more until August / September , when things settle back after the term time workers return ��

Mayo miss how are you getting on? Does your name begin with S if it does you talk to me sometimes!

Has your daughter heard anything? I think I must have had an interview the same day as her in Dublin, got the email saying I passed the next day, and have heard nothing since. Seems like such a silly system!

Seems to have gone quiet on this thread recently.

Has anybody who applied for Roscommon heard anything yet??

Not heard anything from Sligo yet either! Been in contact with 2 others who had successful interviews but still no contract.

Hi shanzam,

I had an interview for TCO positions in Dublin on 6th June. I received an email on 13th June to say that I had been successful at interview and that they would be in touch when a suitable position arose. I then got a call on 21st June asking me to start work in the Department of Social Protection on 24th June even though I had distinctly said on both my application form and at the interview itself that I was not available until 30th June. The lady that called me from HR was extremely nice and said that she would send back my details to Public Appointments and that I would be kept on the list given that it was their mistake. I decided to email Public Appointments last week about it and was told that my details had been passed on to another department and that I would hear back about a job shortly. I'm still waiting. Anyone else in the same boat?

I wouldn't be too worried about timeframes unless you are only available for a short period.

The first time I applied was in March 2010. Interview was end of April 2010. Successful after a couple of weeks but was offered a post in the 3rd week of July. Had to give current place 1 week notice and they waited. Got a 2 and a half year contract out of it (as did a few others).

Every situation is different but I wouldn't fret. Email PAS to see what the story is.
