Hi Everyone!

I am in my mid 20s and beginning a role as EO in the coming weeks. I have a bachelor’s degree, work experience across hospitality and an internship in financial services.

I’m very much looking forward to starting the role as it will be my first graduate position and the career progression in the civil service is one of the main reasons I applied. However, I am aware that I am on the younger side for someone beginning an EO role, so any advice for someone in my position would be greatly appreciated! If anyone has had a similar experience or had any titbits of advice please let me know 🙏🏻

Cheers

Just said I would put up a post to see if anyone has any info on the EO Galway 2026 panel. I placed in the second batch, currently waiting on an update. I believe the first batch have all been placed so hoping to hear soon.

If anyone else is on the panel / knows of any updates would much appreciate hearing from you. Also just a side note - if anyone has any idea of what departments are likely to be recruiting for EOs in Galway, it would be nice to have an idea of where I might be offered. I understand this depends entire on the vacancies that come up.

Thanks!
