[RUMCEMT]

If the fire department didn't find the promotional beneficial to the service they most likely wouldn't do it.

 

[Mugs89]

First off I don't think there's anything wrong with the promotional. If someone has put in there 2 years, why not? Like most of us have waited about 2 years to get through this tedious Pre-hire process. So its like a 4 yr investment. Not to mention you'd have to get through the Fire Academy, so this "backdoor" aint cake. I don't plan on using this as some stepping stone to become a firefighter, however I do like having it as an option. Options are dope.

Additionally someone posted at least twice that his Investigator said 2 academies in April which would make sense. They're pouring ALOT of money into EMS right now so 1 academy would be underwhelming. And if there's going to be 1 academy in April the number would at least be another 120 like the last one.

I would ask my Investigator but hes the only one that asks questions in this relationship.

 

[Ryan815]

Mugs you have the right idea. I agree with just about everything you've said.

 

[MattyMalverne655]

agreed. Couldn't say that any better

 

[Ryan815]

Don't get me wrong this job is a really awesome unbelievable job. I feel privileged and lucky to be working here in a great boro. I've never worked any where else and all my street experience is strictly through the city. However, investing 25 years without looking at promotional opportunities is simply not financially feasible. I mean at least for most people I'd say. I didn't know much about EMS or Firefighters before this job. They offer alot here. They want to see you succeed. And when you get out of the academy you will have an understanding of that.

Anyone else get a letter about a physical? Let's see some numbers

 

[emtman01]

Do you think the 5003 list will make the promo for fire??

 

[purpleheartx2]

I got my letter today for the agility test. It's on the 28th of March. My list number was 75 and scored an 85 on 5003.

 

[FDNYEMT]

Good job and good luck to whomever is doing their physical/agility. Glad that this process is actually moving quick.

 

[SenorRojer]

Yea forget about the promo talk lets get back to when im getting called for a damn academy lol

 

[MattyMalverne655]

What mugs said made a lot of sense, there should be 2 academy classes in April but we don't know if they will do a repeat of the two jan classes. One emd and one both EMT and emd

 

[kettlebell]

I have only heard the two academy talk here on this forum. I think it would be more plausible for one of the larger 120 classes in April then for two different classes.

As far as a start date goes, I do know that the current class graduates on the 22nd of April so I imagine the next class will be starting around that time frame.

 

[FDHOPEFUL33]

so nobody over 100 got a letter for the physical? soon hopefully.

 

[FDHOPEFUL33]

list number 100**

 

[RUMCEMT]

I'm 18x nothing today or yesterday

 

[Ron536]

Nothing in the mail for me yet and I'm in the high 500

 

[RUMCEMT]

You have to figure they probably sent out at least a cpl hundred as I know dq on the stairs is very high

 

[Mclebron23]

Anyone know about exam 4004? I'm done with everything (physical, psychological, medical, investigator) I just received my medical results in the mail with everything good to go. I did get a call from a nurse saying I need a cat scan because they saw a "shadow" on my chest x-ray. Will this hold me back from getting called for the next adademy?

What's my chances of getting called for the April class? My list # is 7xx. Thanks.
