Been following these threads as I am in this recruitment process - done my medical last week and have received my letter. Is it a case of waiting until I receive a call now for GV? Do I need to keep my phone by my side or will they email/send a letter? Anyone know when the next batch (if any) will be going to GV? I am assuming that I might be ok as I've got all my stages completed before the end of the campaign, and the PSNI would not spend money like this if we weren't going to be put through!

Delilahbeau wrote: » Welcome to the wait! Yep, it is just a case of waiting now.... There's a few of us in this bit. What happens now is the details of every candidate who have passed the medical and SMT are put onto a merit list. This list is where HR do the choosing for the next intake. We don't know when these calls may be, but general concensus is beginning next week. So, provided your SMT is good and the results come through on time, you're time enough to be in the running for the may intake. That'll be a phone call from a withheld number to you. So, pick up all unknown numbers. Once you accept the job offer from them, a welcome pack is sent to your home address the next day (or tge day after that) with a ton of information. A few weeks after the phone call comes the induction weekend, where you get abother ton of information, a tour and a uniform fitting. The wait is just the fun bit. -_-.

iamveryhopeful wrote: » well much like myself you'll have applied sometime around May 2014 for this 1405 campaign so realistically the wait has been the same (ridiculous if you ask me). There are others who applied in the prior campaign and are still waiting/just received their call so their wait is even greater. I'm not overly optimistic about the upcoming calls if I am being completely honest. I just hope though I am in with a shout in what seems to then be the very last set of calls after this next set. Are you in 1509 recruitment campaign too?
schmeichel wrote: » No for some reason I didn't apply in the latest campaign! I think I had received a letter referring to the 14050 campaign saying that the process was on hold due to budget pressures, and not to expect a reply any time soon and this maybe put me off!
