Age limit raised for FDNY

[Guest jcnyc]

According to NY1 the City Council is considering raising the age for the exam to 35. I hope they do this as the amount of guys I know in my age group would be the best guys to have at work with me, which includes a lot of you. Keep your fingers crossed!

That's awesome. It allows those who took the test, but had to wait for all the legal BS to end while they passed the age limit, to test.

I can only imagine the flood of returning applicants in addition to all the new ones AND the people on the old lists.

Thats good. I feel terrible for the guys on the list who got the shaft and should be on the job.

Good. I've had the opportunity to speak with some of the candidates on 6019. They've been well spoken and driven people. They were royally f%#cked and they deserve another shot. Good for them and everyone else who's going to have a chance. With our extended hiring freeze, hiring will most likely extend deeper into the next list. However, study up! Ya gotta get 100.
