  • Registered Users Posts: 577 ✭✭✭Dublintigger


    Oooh..... I haven't heard anything re my Garda Vetting yet? I completed it the weekend of my interview.
    Still waiting to be posted but I guess that will happen when the vetting is completed.

    Ah cool thanks. Think I did it early the following week so might be another few days yet. Wonder when they will start placing people. Presume for anyone in a tco contract they might give a bit of notice or maybe less, who knows!

  • Registered Users Posts: 26 marthahen


    I submitted Garda Vetting on the 21st and just got the email about it being complete now.

    I still haven't heard anything back from Garda Vetting..... getting a little worried now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,397 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    Friend got a message from public jobs this morning saying that their information had been passed onto AGS for their advanced security clearance, and it will take at least 12 weeks.

    To say they are delighted is an understatement as their vetting email yesterday said ‘a disclosure’ had been made and they were panicking about what it could be. Turns out it’s just a change in the language used on the outcome of the vetting.

    When did you submit it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 102 ✭✭Em2157


    Got a message there today with feedback from online questionnaire today. Absolutely gutted I missed the 'top tier' scoring by 3 points! Wondering now if they brought the top tier for interview a few weeks back and the middle tier will be next? Anyone shed any light?


  • Registered Users Posts: 577 ✭✭✭Dublintigger

    20/05 but there was a lot on the form.

    Got feed back result and I scored high in the top 30%

    Who knows whats next

    I scored in the top tier and was one of the ones called for interview recently. That could be how they're doing it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 59 ✭✭LittleMissRed

    My vetting hasn't been completed yet either. However, I got a message today saying I've been assigned to AGS so will have to go through the longer clearance process.


  • Registered Users Posts: 102 ✭✭Em2157


    For those who didn't pass questionnaire, don't think you wont next time. The minimum scoring for this was much higher than the campaign in Kildare. I think you needed 428 to pass and in the Kildare comp it was 300!


  • Registered Users Posts: 102 ✭✭Em2157

    Thanks so much, hopefully I'll be called soon! Good luck in whatever they offer you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 53 ✭✭jock 1


    I’d love to know how they score these questionnaires , I answered it more or less the same as last one yet there was a difference of nearly 70 in my scores !

    Hopefully it'll be back by later today then or tomorrow. All I really had on mine was piles of previous addresses!

    My fiancee received a email back today placing her provisionally in An Garda Siochana subject to further additional clearance which takes 12 weeks. At the interview her letter didnt specify her position.

    Anyonne know why it takes so long?


  • Registered Users Posts: 46 Kevin17W

    Well if it’s AGS An Garda Síochána you’ve been assigned to there’s additional clearance due to the nature of the work. Last year when my friend was assigned to AGS the community garda called just to chat sort of thing. It was a small village so may be different if you’re in a city. I think the local guards just handle a small part. It’s more so if you’re involved or associated with criminals. All that craic

    I'm in tier 3 unfortunately, June was mentioned in a previous email. I assume I'm out of contention in tier 3 if tier 1s haven't been interviewed yet?

    Not necessarily out of contention but you might have to wait a while. All depends on the number of posts Publicjobs get sanctioned to fill


  • Registered Users Posts: 8 Cople


    Does anybody actually know what their order of merit is? Is it not unusual to have no idea where you are on the list?

    Also has anyone got any experience in being offered a position? I'm mainly wondering if it will be via phone or by a message on public jobs

    I'm not sure what my order of merit was, or if they are using the usual system.
    You'll be contacted via your public jobs message board if you haven't already been assigned somewhere (this is how I was contacted). Anyone who got an offer on the day of interview will be contacted via phone by their assigned department.

    I did email to ask but got no update..... not sure if they are using the OOM system


  • Registered Users Posts: 8 Cople

    I got an email back after I sent them my references: "Thank you for your email. I have noted your references.

    We will be in contact with you when we reached your order of merit regarding the Clerical Officer 2019 competition."

    Maybe its just a generic template that they use?

    Goodness knows but that does sound about right.
    Look we've got this far and we'll just have to wait our turn.

    The current problems with delays at immigration/passport control in Dublin Airport may speed things up on this panel. Minsiter Flanagan said yesterday that he will give more resources to INIS (Dept of Justice) if they expand the area as they are looking to do - that will likely mean the DOJ needing to quickly source a significant number of CO posts for these roles.


  • Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 2,290 Mod ✭✭✭✭Nigel Fairservice


    I think INIS run their own CO competitions for border control. Unless it was mentioned at the interviews that DOJ would take staff from this panel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭Gaffer78

    They dont run their own competitions but they do ask supplementary questions during the CO interview to anyone who might be interested in those posts.

    I think they took people from the general 2014 CO competition to fill for the initial posts in Dublin airport when they took over from the Gardaí but then moved to their own competition in 2016. Thread below.

    You'll probably be covered anyway if they specifically mentioned it for this campaign.
