Applications have opened this morning.
A new recruitment drive to hire Gardaí starts today.
Applications have opened this morning to join the service, with the campaign to focus on the 'positive impact' Gardaí have on communities.
The drive was first announced by the Justice Minister and Garda Commissioner on Tuesday at the National Ploughing Championships.
People will have the opportunity to hear from sports stars there today who have joined the force, about what its like to be a Garda.
Seán Patton works as a guard in Donegal, and also plays as goalie on the county team - he says a career in the force won't cost you your hobbies:
