BallyG · 12-08-2015 10:10PM

Well done to the guys who've gotten offers. Is anyone from cork still waiting to hear about a medical?

Kiki88 · 13-08-2015 06:52AM

I've mine today in cork

Pilchards · 13-08-2015 01:51PM

Congrats to those who heard!! And don't be thinking your doomed if you haven't, not everyone starts the same date, everyone has to go to the training centre in portlaoise at the start so they usually go in blocks, so there would be people starting two/three weeks later, and two/three weeks after that again I think. Well done and welcome to the board!! Have fun in Portlaoise, and don't worry, you'll do more than climb poles once you're on the job in a few weeks. Make the most of it and we'll done!!

amerie2010 · 13-08-2015 02:00PM

Congrats to all that have been successful so far. Has anyone that's done the interview in Portlaoise had medicals yet?

I am also starting on 31st August. I rang HR to find out about accommodation but they said that they don't give out accommodation lists anymore! Does anyone know of good places to stay? I also asked HR if ESB subsidies the cost of accommodation but the guy didn't know - still waiting for him to get back to me - does anyone know? Thanks

Thanks for the information.

Does anyone have any idea what the wages are like with the ESB? And how frequently they pay? I'm used to weekly so monthly will be a shock to the system haha

Brilliant thanks! Is the training in Portlaois paid or at our own expense? I don't mind either way, just wanna get my finances in order and make my last two weeks wages last.

Barney1988 · 14-08-2015 08:41AM

Did anyone here anything back about medical who did their interview in athlone ?

FaintBum · 16-08-2015 08:59AM

Such a shame the process is so long winded, the waiting could drive you mad!

BenDon · 17-08-2015 12:35PM

I haven't got any word from the ESB since my interview, good or bad, so no medical or anything. Should I be worried and start considering my cao offer which I received this morning as it's very late and I will only have till the end of the week to accept my cao
