    Interviews are starting this day week - we should have them today..

    A week isn't particularly long to prepare (I know we basically all have the material but still)

    Familiarisation material just sent out. Form B isn’t being sent out now until all of the stages are finished.

    There still similar to what was there before but have changed slightly, they are more specific to role of Garda.

    If you have prepped answers already, they should still be useable in my opionion

    Make sure you have the competencies well prepared, at least 2 examples for each.

    Is it necessary to have form b filled out for the interview then? It says on garda website and the form we received after stage 2 that we needed it but the form hasn’t been sent out yet?

    They said they're not sending it out until after the interviews and will only be sending it to those who pass.
    Saves time and effort for them I suppose.

    So if you pass the interview they will send out form B?

    Interview done and dusted for me!

    Found it quite tough but they were really, really nice! Everyone just make sure you're not relying on one example for competencies - have a few!!

    Best of luck - anxious few weeks wait now :eek:

    Based on what I've heard, probably calling roughly 160 per month.

    They must be inviting a lot if they went to 430. Thats great. I can't see 161 going through after first interview stage. More spaces for the rest of us :)
