FDNY EMS Candidates

[FDNYEMT]

Get there extra early and make sure all of your paperwork is done. You initially go in fill out paperwork and they call you up in the order of who got there first. After that you go upstairs to see the investigators. Don't stress it, you'll be fine. What's your list number?

600's
Just met with investigator. Need to get some stuff notarized and mail it back

 

[jjay449]

I had to as well. I mailed my two notarized letters back by certified mail and return receipt. It's not necessary though. Next is psych then medical

Any idea of how long it'll take to get psych/medical letters?

 

[jjay449]

They say a month to a month and a half, but I haven't received anything yet and had my intake a month ago. I'm in the mid 300s

 

[Mugs89]

It's about 2 months....but that med/psych letter is the least of it once u realize ur gonna be waiting a good 6 months between med/psych and the call

Yeah. I know. But I'd rather get those two out of the way and not have to worry about much

Ur looking at a winter academy of next year bro whenever that is .. It all depends on the needs of the dept on how fast they move ppl on 4004 had 2 winter academies back to back jan and feb not sure if they are doing that next year also

 

[Mugs89]

I would think u have a good shot at the first academy of next year. A # in the 300's is sick.

They still have to finish 4004 and I think they just got to the 1100s. The list has a little more than 1400, So I'm not sure if they'll get to 5003 in Sept.

Highly doubt that too they have around 344 more numbers to go on 4004 minus whoever turns down the job wasn't medically cleared got dq'd ect.. 5003 will most likely start in the winter plus I see they go back a lot and get the ppl they skipped

They definitely squeeze as much out of a list as possible. We learned that the hard way for July when they went bck a bunch. At the end of the day it's good to know they don't just get rid of ur file if there's problems.

 

[jjay449]

So hopefully January/February! I appreciate the feedback and wish you all the best for September!
