RECRUITMENT Shortlisting: Normally the number of applications received for a position exceeds that required to fill existing and future vacancies to the position.

In this respect, Westmeath County Council provide for the employment of a short-listing 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 based on the specific competencies identified in the job description. An expert board will examine the application forms against a pre-determined criterion based on the requirements of 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 based on their application, appear to be better qualified and/or have more relevant experience. It is therefore in your own interest to provide a detailed and accurate account of your relevant qualifications/ experience on the application form.

REFERENCE/DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE Candidates may be required to submit documentary evidence to the local authority in support of their application.

It is important, therefore, for you to note that the onus is on you to ensure that you meet the eligibility requirements for the competition before attending for interview. If you do not meet the essential entry requirement but nevertheless attend for interview you will be putting yourself to unnecessary expense. Prior to recommending any candidate for appointment to this position Westmeath County Council will make all such enquiries that are deemed necessary to determine the suitability of the candidate. 15. DEEMING OF CANDIDATE TO BE WITHDRAWN Candidates who do not attend for interview or other test when and where required by Westmeath County Council, or who do not, when requested, furnish such evidence as Westmeath County Council require in regard to any matter relevant to their candidature, will have no further claim to consideration. 15.
