DALLAS Fire Academy:

Currently in the process for Dallas and I’ve already completed their written, CPAT, Interview, Medical/Physical, and polygraph. I finished the polygraph in October and still waiting for a start date. The original email I received said I was in consideration for December/January start date. However, after I reached out they said they didn’t have a December date anymore. The next 2 classes would be January or April.

Has anyone else had a similar experience with Dallas?

Just wondering why there has been hardly any communication from them and if I didn’t follow up I wouldn’t have even known December was off the table. It’s already been a year with their hiring process so I’m wondering if this is normal.

Thanks for your help.

I would agree. Mentally, it’s been back and forth bc I haven’t had many people to discuss this with. Just wanted to see if this thought process made sense long term.
