With the information that staff was not in yesterday, there are more calls to be made; most likely through Monday and Tuesday so there is still hope for the rest of us.
@Officer Kite - That's really interesting to hear. Do you think it's just a normal part of the selection process for some candidates to be told that late?
Thanks

Well they have to call a lot of people, it takes time, then you also have people pulling out etc and so they'll call other people to attend instead. The point of the matter is that it's not over after 2 days of calls (or at least its never been like that in the past).

Well, that may be true. However, having seen some got invited and some (still?) not does put some weight on the waiting game.
Not pleasent at all... So waiting some more it is.

Congratulations to everyone who got the good news and everyone who is yet to receive it. For everyone else, there will be other opportunities. Never loose hope.
We all will get to where we want to go. Best of luck to everyone in the process

When I applied last time around 4 years ago, I didn't get called for an assessment for a number of weeks after they started calling the first people
I went to the assessment day and again I didn't hear anything back for a long time.....I'm thinking it was at least a month. Then I got a call out of the blue to be back in dublin for interviews with 2 captains. I was traveling from canada. I flew back to canada the next day and had a phone call to got back to dublin for the psychometric interview a few days later. I was not selected in the end however.
moral the story was there was a lot of waiting around and then it moved very rapidly towards the end.
THe process is different now so that might change things quite a bit but I just want to share my experience.
btw I applied again this year and have not been called yet, but all I know is your still in until you get that rejection mail.

They don't have a lot of time to talk as there are so many people for them to contact and by the sounds of it a lot more happening in the background we are unaware of. I say this because I offered to call my HR contact back with an answer to a question she had but she said please email instead as there's so much happening you don't have much chance of getting hold of me.
