We are committed to equality of opportunity for all candidates. If you have a disability or need reasonable accommodations made during the selection process, we strongly encourage you to share this with us so that we can ensure you get the support you need.

Examples of adjustments we provide include the use of assistive technology, extra time, scribes and/or readers or a range of other accommodations.

Candidates should note that support will be available during office hours until the closing date. Selection Process Candidates will be required to complete assessments which are designed to identify their potential to fulfil a Temporary Clerical Officer role. Candidates must be prepared to make themselves available at short notice, to undertake and attend test(s) and interview and provide any supporting documentation required. You may only sit the various stages of the selection process, including interview, once. Please Note If publicjobs is not notified of any issues or problems you experience on the day of the tests/interview, we will not be in a position to address these after the fact. Applicants must successfully compete and be placed highest, in order to be considered for advancement to the next stage of the multistage selection process. The number to be invited forward at each stage will be determined from time to time by publicjobs. Next Steps Should you come under consideration to proceed to subsequent stages of the selection process, information will be forwarded to you at the appropriate time. Shortlisting Normally the number of applications received exceeds the numbers required to fill existing and future vacancies. While you may meet the eligibility requirements of the competition, if the numbers applying for the positions are such that it would not be practical to interview everyone, publicjobs may decide that a number only will be called to interview. In this respect, publicjobs provide for the employment of a shortlisting process to select a group for interview who, based on an examination of the application forms, appear to be the most suitable for the position. This is not to suggest that other candidates are necessarily unsuitable, or incapable of undertaking the job, rather that there are some candidates who are, prima facie, better qualified and/or have more relevant experience. During any shortlisting exercise that may be employed, publicjobs are guided by an assessment board(s) who examine the application forms and assess them against predetermined criteria based on the requirements of the position. It is therefore in your own interests to provide a detailed and accurate account of your qualifications/experience on the application form. General Information The admission of a person to a competition, or invitation to attend interview, or a successful result letter, is not to be taken as implying that publicjobs is satisfied that such a person fulfils the requirements. Prior to recommending any candidate for appointment to this position publicjobs will make all such enquiries that are deemed necessary e.g. health, character, employer references, security checks (including international checks), or any other enquiries as are deemed necessary to determine the suitability of that candidate. Until all stages of the recruitment process have been fully completed a final determination cannot be made nor can it be deemed or inferred that such a determination has been made. Security Clearance You will be required to complete and return a Garda eVetting form should you come under consideration for appointment. This form will be forwarded to An Garda Síochána to initiate security checks on all Irish and Northern Irish addresses at which you resided. However should your application for the competition be unsuccessful this form will be destroyed by publicjobs. If you subsequently come under consideration for another position, you may therefore be required to complete a further Garda Vetting Form. Reschedule Requests Reschedule requests will only be considered under exceptional circumstances as deemed acceptable by publicjobs (e.g. Bereavement/Illness). Please note that publicjobs may request supporting documentation as evidence. Candidates who are rescheduled will be scored with their rescheduled batch and will not be reinserted into their original batch. Specific candidate criteria In addition to fulfilling the eligibility criteria set out, candidates must: • Have the knowledge and ability to discharge the duties of the post concerned; • Be suitable on the grounds of health and character; • Be suitable in all other relevant respects for appointment to the post concerned. If successful, they will not be appointed to the post unless they: • Agree to undertake the duties attached to the post and accept the conditions under which the duties are, or may be required to be, performed; • Are fully competent and available to undertake, and fully capable of undertaking, the duties attached to the position. Non-Refund of Expenses Any expenses incurred by candidates whilst undertaking or attending any elements of the selection process will not be refunded. Appointments from panels At the end of the selection process a panel(s) of qualified candidates is formed from which vacancies may be filled. A panel is a list of qualified candidates ranked in order of merit from the final stage of the selection process. Should a vacancy arise and their place reached, candidates undergo the final stage of the selection process. These panels may remain in place for up to twelve months, however, it is not envisaged that appointments will be made from this competition after 30th November 2025. Prior to recommending any candidate for appointment to this position publicjobs or employing organisation will make all such enquiries that are deemed necessary e.g. employer references, to determine the suitability of that candidate. Until all stages of the selection process have been fully completed a final determination cannot be made nor can it be deemed or inferred that such a determination has been made.
