Recruitment Shortlisting: Normally the number of applications received for a position exceeds that required to fill existing and future vacancies to the position. While a candidate may meet the eligibility requirements of the competition, if the numbers applying for the position are such that it would not be practical to interview everyone, Westmeath County Council may decide that a number only will be invited to same. In this respect, Westmeath County Council 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 based on the specific requirements 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. On occasion a shortlisting interview may take place. Competitive Interview: Selection will be by means of a competition based on an interview conducted by or on behalf of the local authority. The number of persons to be invited shall be determined by the Local Authority having regard to the likely number of vacancies to be filled. Candidates will be required to pay any expenses incurred by them in attending the interview. A panel may be formed on the basis of interviews. Candidates whose names are on a panel and who satisfy the local authority that they possess the qualifications declared for the post and that they are otherwise suitable for appointment may within the life of the panel be appointed as appropriate vacancies arise. 14. Reference/Documentary Evidence Candidates may be required to submit documentary evidence to the local authority in support of their application. The admission of a person to a competition, or invitation to attend an interview, is not to be taken as implying that Westmeath County Council is satisfied that such person fulfils the requirements of the competition or is not disqualified by law from holding the position and does not carry a guarantee that your application will receive further consideration. 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. Work Location There will be 2 positions to be filled initially, one in Athlone Moate Municipal District and the other in Mullingar Kinnegad Municipal District. This will entail working in any of the buildings/facilities across the District to which you are assigned. Candidates will be asked for their preferred location at time of application. Any subsequent vacancies will be filled from this panel and will be based on the preferences selected at time of application. 16. Taking Up Appointment Westmeath County Council shall require a person to whom an appointment is offered to take up such appointment within a period of four weeks (maximum) and if he/she fails to take up the appointment within such period or such longer period as the local authority in its absolute discretion may determine, the local authority shall not appoint him/her. 17. 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.
