    No details of the package given over the phone. The HR representative said the full information will go out in the post after the call. They told me which division I was accepted for alright.

    Hey all, I'm still waiting to hear back about business banking too!

    Hopefully they'll let us know tomorrow.

    Got the call earlier today, was successful as well. HR said that they would have contacted all successful candidates by today, don't know if that was just in Group Finance tho.

    Anyone get any word on salary?

    Not looking good! I hope they give us a bit of feedback when we get the rejection.

    I really hope that they let us know, one way or the other, tomorrow. Definitely don't want this hanging over me all weekend :(

    Well it seems nobody who applied for business banking has heard anything yet or else we are all unlucky. Hopefully it's the former and not the latter....

    Also I heard that it could take a few weeks despite what they say.

    Yep our outside shot is that there seems to be three branches of the grad programme, 'Group', 'Corporate & Treasury' and 'Retail'. And i haven't heard of anybody on here getting any news on the 'Retail' side bar somebody who got the Actuary position?.

    We live in hope, until tomorrow anyway

    You didn't get a call yesterday, means you did not get any positions... (HR, Business banking, treasury ..... ) apply next year.

    Good Luck

    How do you know this? It is more than likely true but I am just wondering how you know?

    Yes, it's possible but it is also possible that as it seems nobody here who applied for Businees Banking has heard anything that BOI haven't called successful candidates in that category yet. I am, of course, open to correction.

    Thanks for the input Martin2012 but I think I'll wait until I hear back from BOI.

    Have been keeping an eye on this thread, applied for business banking also and haven't heard anything yet, so it does seem they haven't contacted the business banking candidates yet(hopefully)

    The suspense is killing me!

    That makes 5 business applicants on here yet to hear anything, so it would appear (hopefully) that the business people have not been told yet.

    Thanks for your input Martin!

    Most of the business banking roles are regional, so I'm guessing they've more decisions to make re who goes where etc

    I hope they ring today, it's going to be a long weekend!

    Maybe give them a ring to see what stage they are at in making their decision. Always helps to put the mind at rest... Now it could be pointless but there's nothing to loose. Anyone who is getting a PFO probably won't hear until after those who were successful have returned the signed contracts..

    Congrats! Dublin thankfully. Nothing more detailed than that. What about you?

    At least I can relax and enjoy my summer now knowing I have a permanent job lined up. Just hope I get enough temp work to keep me going until then.

    Good luck everyone else.
