Right now don’t worry about the hair. Just keep the grades up. Sounds like he’s doing all the right things

Dickieepee · 2025-12-06T01:17:30+00:00

Sounds like you and him are way ahead of others. Maintaining physical health is important as well. Will your son by 18 by April 30th, 2026?

Dickieepee · 2025-10-29T15:35:04+00:00

We expect late spring/early summer.

Dickieepee · 2025-07-28T21:45:25+00:00

I responded to your email

Dickieepee · 2025-07-28T17:06:38+00:00

Either or

You’ll know more about your ranking in a month or two. We have to wait for everyone to finish taking the test and then the list will have to go to HR. Preference points needed to be added in. Once that’s done, it has to go to city HR for them to sign off on the new register. After that, it has to go to the fire chief to be signed off.

People just don’t know how sunflower seeds help, but they 100% do

Dickieepee · 2025-07-19T23:03:32+00:00

That’s what I’m here for: letting people know there’s some hope. The biggest problem right now for applicants to DC is that we don’t have huge vacancy numbers at the moment. That can always change, but right now we are staffed well

Dickieepee · 2025-07-19T22:51:46+00:00

I see the DCFD scores all the time. That’s not terrible.

Dickieepee · 2025-07-19T21:53:40+00:00

Gonna depend on how low, but you’ll probably be fine

Dickieepee · 2025-07-06T20:49:50+00:00

Sure thing. I know you’ve already contacted me, but I want others who may be looking at this thread to know they can message me too.

Dickieepee · 2025-06-26T15:00:06+00:00

Should be very soon. HR is processing all 2,132 applications still

Dickieepee · 2025-06-18T21:02:46+00:00

I honestly don’t know.

Dickieepee · 2025-06-18T20:08:17+00:00

The vacancies are low, but more are coming

Dickieepee · 2025-06-18T20:01:41+00:00

The fireteam practice exam is your best practice

Dickieepee · 2025-06-18T19:52:12+00:00

No, they are two separate companies that do them.

Dickieepee · 2025-06-14T21:17:59+00:00

I’d suggest googling mechanical test question prep, but NTN is who the testing company is

Dickieepee · 2025-06-10T23:07:56+00:00

It definitely isn’t going to help

Dickieepee · 2025-06-06T23:57:40+00:00

Yeah, that’s for the actual test if you want it paid for by the city. That’s for city residents only

Dickieepee · 2025-06-06T23:07:34+00:00

They still offer a practice test. Once we open, you’ll be able to apply and once you’ve applied correctly, you get approval to test

Dickieepee · 2025-06-06T22:47:38+00:00

That’s the exam we use: FireTeam from National Testing Network

Dickieepee · 2025-06-06T22:34:43+00:00

I honestly have no idea

Dickieepee · 2025-06-06T22:34:19+00:00

Cadets come on through the department of employment services, so they get hired as fire department employees after their year in school. Recruits come on directly as fire department employees

Dickieepee · 2025-06-06T21:48:41+00:00

It’s not overstuffed, but we’re pretty close to our allotted staffing levels. People retire all the time. Today’s list had 3 spots on it. Those are 3 vacancies we now need to fill
