    Hey,

    How do you find out your OOM number? I got mine back in jan but it’s 700!
    Also got an email for expression of interest in the vaccine centres that was on 23/03.
    Does anyone know how long it takes to be placed?

    Just got an expression of interest email from my local county council so it seems the panel is crossing over to all public sectors.

    That I did wonder but on looking at the application form itself it actually does state TCO for civil and public sector, so wonder does that mean it actually includes all together?

    I didn’t see that tbh but remember one time I had an offer with tusla and I had to turn around and do another one with them.
    And there’s the old cliche of if it makes sense they do the opposite.

    The campaign title states the civil and public services as it has in previous years, while the county council/ETB's/colleges/HSE ect could pull from the panel it wasn't common as most run their own TCO competitions.

    If their own panel is been exhausted, its possibly a temporary measure until they can run a new competition once Covid restrictions lift.

    It would be on the emails you got on to your public jobs account.

    I am OOM 12 in Co Meath.
    Got a phone call a few days ago from a hospital agency (Ireland East) about working in a vaccination centre in Meath Got email yesterday with online training and a Certificate of Health document to fill out and return.
    Just wondering has anyone here any idea of how long the timeline is before I start working, I will be getting a vaccine but assume that needs time to take effect? Has anyone else started in a vaccination centre? (I know I should have asked when I got the call but I forgot!)

    It's just that the salary scale isn't the CO in Local authority/HSE in their info it's the civil service one which is slightly different so always assumed it covered civil service only.

    It depends on the policy of the department that employs you. Most do allow it, but you have to get proof.

    You pass an “aptitude” test to do an interview, you pass an interview to get on a list and you have to pass another for a job you didn’t apply for. It reminds me of that sketch from the savage eye.

    What is the procedure and typical waiting time for the extra level of vetting before you can take up a post in a security sensitive area?

    I was contacted through a recruitment company for a position (temp) in CAR. Is that not a bit random out of the ordinary? Recruiter had nothing from me just CV and I hadnt applied for anything with them before. Never applied for C.A.R either?

    So any advice folks on how long the extra vetting takes and what it might entail? Thanks in advance.

    Enhanced garda vetting takes up to three months, you fill a form declaring any previous convictions and they ask for a list of your previous addresses.

    Got an email on Friday saying I have a zoom interview next week, I can’t even remember my order of merit, but it was less than 50 in Meath.

    Ironically, I was also interviewed for a full time role elsewhere last week and hope to hear back tomorrow...so if I get the job, I have to reject the temporary job interview. (Or if I don’t get the job, I have the temporary job interview to focus on straight away)
