About 11:30 AM. Was in the gym though so didn't see my phone until about 1 pm. Got a hold of someone there around 2 pm and that's when I was offered the job.

Got my call today. 98*. Good luck to those remaining. Uni fittings are at Fort Totten. I think you're supposed to pick your own time. I'm 2pm on the 10th.

I'm off of exam 4004. Didn't get any notice of a DQ for my medical (which includes the drug test), and don't see why I would. My investigator looked into it and said I'm still qualified and my list number is still in the running but the automated message on DCAS says not qualified. Who do I...

Is anyone else being marked not qualified by DCAS for an unkown reason? Called my investigator and he looked into it, called me back, and said that everything was good and my number is back in the running. He said he would call me if he needs anything, and if I have any questions to call him...

Calling tomorrow. He told me back when I took my medical that everything was fine, wait for a job offer, and lean towards the April academy. Also, got into a fender bender right outside of my house the other day. I know they want us to keep them updated on moving violations, summons', etc...

I'm very high 900's. Didn't make the April academy. Hoping I'm one the first for the next academy and didn't get skipped over. Called DCAS, the automated voice message is still saying the last appointed is 706 or whatever. Not sure if they only say the last appointed list number after that...

Took the last open competitive, and planning on taking the next. I'm in Westchester, so I'm not getting any extra points added to my score. However I'm a certified EMT, so going through FDNY EMS might be my only way to fire. I just want to keep doors open for myself, and if it takes 2+ years to...

Can you not transfer from EMD to fire or something? Why are you saying it would blow?

98x list number. No call yet. Checked DCAS and it says I'm outstanding.

I should say that I think there's more of a chance than I had originally thought that I'd be getting a call for a summer class. My investigator said maybe February or April, and I'm thinking if anything I'll get in on the back end of the April class. Still staying positive and hoping everything...

Are we sure that list 4004 is around the 700 mark right now? I'm high 900's, and my investigator originally said to expect to get into the February or April academies. Now I'm thinking I might be stuck waiting until the summer.

How do you know whether or not you are "outstanding" or "not outstanding"?

Only traffic violation is a speeding ticket in North Carolina. Do we have to include this?

I'm sure this has been talked about already, but I don't have much time and I just got my intake letter for Nov. 17th and it seems like a lot of candidates will be there as well. What exactly does the intake interview consist of? Can somebody give me a run-down of what to expect?
