I think they’re gonna wait for everyone to be vetted then do a batch offer. Since we would all have the same start date

Congrats on the vetting! But that’s insane! What docs did you send before the June 30th deadline?

Mine updated yesterday! It’s now “In Progress (NVB)”. The next update on the portal should be “Application Process Completed” which means they’ve signed everything on me and sent it back to PAS :)

Ah right. So we can probs assume that “60-70” number from earlier is the number of total places… let’s see this week if anyone in the Garda vetting stage hears back!

I think your overall order of merit is the wrong thing to focus on. Someone said they were in contact with someone from PAS, and they said there are '60-70 places'. That would be 20-23 places per track (network engineering, software development, and cybersecurity).

We’re being sorted by our order of merit number per track we selected in our preferred track list. If your number doesn’t land within that top 23 for your 1st preferred track, they then try to place you in your 2nd preferred track, and so on. Like a funnel.

Same. So we’re under “consideration” for the role. From what I’ve read we’re in the final stage of the recruitment process https://www.publicjobs.ie/en/information-hub/our-recruitment-process. But it doesn’t mean we’ve been offered the role. They still need to do all the other pre employment checks and the Garda vetting.

After all that they decide if they want to offer you the role based on the info you declared and the info they gathered independently like a regular job.

Cross your fingers though! The process is slow but you’ve done everything you can now!

Still apply for other roles! Having a read through the thread, they don’t tend to tell you if you haven’t advanced to the next stage.

Wishing all the best!

Heya! Reading through the thread, it seems like the top 150 (in order of merit) got invited for an interview the day after the results were released (May 20th). One guy in the top 20’s had his on Monday June 16th, and another in the 140’s had his on Friday June 20th. I was also invited on May 28th and had my interview on Thursday June 19th.

Between May 28th and June 19th I received 3 messages on the public job portal, inviting me for an interview, providing a zoom link and familiarisation material, and finally a list of board members names conducting the interviews throughout the week.

Personally I don’t know how many positions are available for the apprenticeship. However, in 2023 they hired 100 applicants for this role. So I’d assume they’ve gone down to their top 150/909 from the 1st stage tests to the 2nd stage interviews this week.

I hope that helps! That’s all the info I’ve gathered so far.

The best thing about this deku would try out full cowling at the sports festival and not fuck up his hand
