    So in other words the rest of us that heard nothing yet don't stand much of a chance of being offered anything.

    I would imagine they are trying to organise the first batch

    were you sent out the original email offering a place or was this the first contact they had with you?

    I had been emailed and offered the place last week, so no this was the second bit of contact I have had from them

    thanks, so it seems if they are running a first batch of applicants then they are still trying to organise them....hopefully!

    I got a phone call from eircom today and they asked would I be able to start before July, I said yes and asked what dates they were thinking about but she said it might not be until September, that they are trying to organise dates but it's difficult due to the number of people.

    "Due to the number of people"..........this would suggest to me that alot of the places have been offered already. Why would they have difficulty organising dates if only 1/3 of the places were offered?? Its not looking too good for us that have not been told anything yet.

    Did anyone ask them if all the recruiting was done or how many offers were made?

    I emailed today asking if all places were gone, probably won't hear back but just bate from waiting!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46 pollyfunnel


    I emailed too but got no response. I see some people emailed lastweek and they just said all applications are still being processed and thanked them for their patience...... There being very confident to assume we have any patience left!!!!!

    My guess is they are waiting to see if people reject the offer.

    I agree..... In other words as one person said earlier in the thread, we're now just spare pr***s!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,073 ✭✭✭thekopend


    Has anyone heard of someone getting september as a date? There hardly keeping all 25 places in september for students


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46 pollyfunnel


    Well if they are doing 3 takes and this is only take 1, they would hardly spend this length of time organising 25 places??? although last time they ended up recruiting more than initially advertised so they might do that again......... Fingers crossed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,073 ✭✭✭thekopend


    Well they might have called 50 for july and august and are chopping and changing as some who got july cant start in july and some who got august cant start in august? Nobody knows

    When I got the phone call on Tuesday I told them that I was away for the first two weeks in August and she said that it was fine.
