If you're smart, a little buffy and into the job, please take this if it comes to you. A great dispatcher is invaluable to us in the field and we need more.

If you are #7, I am sure you will get a call sooner or later. Good Luck!

Good question......

There might be some sort of waiver involved to receive a salary and a pension, but I'm not sure. Check over the NOE. It really is an excellent job for a retired guy from the job.

Im number 7 on the list. Little excited not going to lie....hope to hear soon what comes next.

Based Upon My experiance from the 2010 test, I Placed # 100... When the city is "ready" they'll send a letter to attend a Backround check (which Was at Metrotech last test...) I would suggest That YOU have 4-6 prepared resume's (They asked me to bring along 4 clean copies) AND be prepared to fill out another handwritten "application" which was sent me, (received in Mail On Saturday2013 at 3:45 pm to report at 8 am Monday...) Your test occured on Wednesday 2 days after that. They sent a 25 page book that They wanted me to fill in the blanks and as well Bring along 4 copies of My clean resume, when I reported Monday at 0800.... I attempted to contact them Via Email they provided which bounced on several attempts to explain myself, due to health issues I am not able to take the job, Anyway, AT #7 You'd better prepare and expect the absolute worst, Ie: receiving no notice at all and still being prepared.....

Has anyone gotten through the entire process? I'm looking for a time line from the time of interview to being offered a position. I was seen for an interview but everything is very vague.

Does anyone know when the next class might be? I deferred for the May class and have been waiting since then. I contacted my investigator and all of my paperwork is in line so I am just waiting.
