    Bull, 520 stamps is what you need and I'm calling bull on a public job promotion interview that is decided by private sector. OP you'll be marked the day you arrive from private sector as either (a) couldn't handle it in big bad world (b) sunshiner or (c) blow in potentially taking promotions from lifers.

    With regard public service interviews. You're marked on the competencies that they discuss with you in the interview. You're given feedback after the interview on how you performed under each competency heading. None of these issues you listed are taken into account during public sector interviews.

    It's quite obvious you haven't a clue what you are talking about.

    Hello,

    I have a situation..one wouldn't say it's a bad one but I'm really stressed about it.
    I work in the private industry, it's a high pressure role. I work Christmas day, public holidays, weekends though my position is supposed to be Monday to Friday - 8 to 4, usually finish at any time up to 10 pm and could start at 0500 am. Trying to get vacation is tough, you have to find coverage. You are expected to provide coverage for others. Your expected to check your emails when you are off. In saying all this I do get paid well. But I'm always stressed and tired. Plus the 1 other person in my department in our Irish office stinks and drives me around the bend. Im with the company 8 years.
    I've now been offered a permanent position in a local authority. The work life balance would be amazing but my salary will drop by €12 k. I'm so stressed about this. I know money doesn't buy happiness but I'm literally getting sick about this decision. Has anyone been in a similar situation?
    Thanks for any advise.

    I halved my salary when I joined the service 10 years ago and then had no promotion options until recently enough. Back then it was security over salary decision. It's worked out well though as I've been promoted 3 times since moratorium was lifted and am now an AP and earning a good bit more than I was in the private sector. But my private sector pension is still worth more than my supposedly gold plated CS one.

    Hope that helps

    Also remember you can promoted easily enough on civil service by lying on your application and faking it.
