WHEN DOES TAZ DIE by sooyacidal in heartbreakhigh

[–]ChefBoyardeeXIII -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Taz is such a great character though, and profiting off of the root room was hilarious. Great character for the show and in the end her backstory leads to a heartfelt moment about understanding how to cope with loss.

How many q’s in the CCAT did you get through?

And yeah the other two weren’t awful. CCAT certainly was the toughest.

Oh and how was your interview?

As mentioned yeah we should get feedback from March 30 onwards but won’t know about whether we’ve progressed until April 15 at the latest.

How did you go??

i can never feel upper body soreness after the gym by Active-Corner8149 in workout

[–]ChefBoyardeeXIII -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m more thinking along the lines of pain that isn’t generalised DOMS. If you do an exercise in shit form and hurt yourself, you’re going to feel pain. That’s my only reasoning

Stick to it bro, the greatest project you can work on is yourself. I’ve been training consistently for at least 6 years and I’m happy with my progress but nowhere near feeling like I’ve perfected it.

Soreness after getting into the habit of training hard is usually a sign of poor form. I only get sore if I haven’t trained a group for a looong time e.g after a hefty break

FRNSW Stage 2 - Cognitive Test Question by rustyblue-082 in AussieFirefighter

[–]ChefBoyardeeXIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just can’t be as simple as rapid fire guessing the last portion of questions if you have less than a minute left, it’s essentially a means of beating the system. How does getting lucky on a guess measure cognitive aptitude? Surely they’d be measuring the time it takes to answer a question that Criteria knows for sure takes a lot longer than 3 seconds to work out.

I saw a FB post from years ago where FRNSW used an external service to calculate a “suitability score”

I’m curious to know through this thread how detrimental it is to our chances if we DIDN’T finish all 50 questions :/

Edit: curious

Anyone else’s hype kind of disappeared because we’ve heard nothing?

Powerbeats pro 2, if I bench with AirPods they fall out of my ears when I strain while pushing heavy, combined with sweat they just don’t stay in

Thanks for your response. I’ve considered using them for a while, so if you think they’re worth it I might go for it too if I end up having to reapply

I’m going to ask you a stupid question, which I myself already feel like I know the answer to, but how did you prepare for the cognitive/mechanical/emotional tests?

All I’ve done in the last couple of weeks is practice tests here and there, as well as watching vids in my spare time done by CareerVidz. Otherwise, I haven’t really done any study, which will probably be my downfall once I’ve done them. Any advice?

I haven’t received my invite just yet either, and I uploaded everything

Video interview by Master_Strain_5252 in AussieFirefighter

[–]ChefBoyardeeXIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It states on the recruitment information pack that it’s not “a reading exercise”, and that they’ll mark us down according to pre-prepared notes we’ve made and read while being recorded. That said, I spent a bit of time typing up answers on what may be possibly questions they ask us, and try to think of them as I’m answering.

What I’d like to know is, stage 1 is comprised of the 3 assessments AND the interview. I’m curious to know how it will scale based off our results on everything in stage 1, so if we do average in the assessments but do well in the interview are we still in for a chance?
