FIREFIGHTER & EMS SELECTION PROCESS
You will be permitted to take a written examination; those with a passing score will be placed on an eligible list. From that list, the most qualified candidates will be invited to participate in the physical ability test. Following the physical performance test, the most qualified candidates will be invited to the preliminary interview. Candidates who are not selected for further testing at this time will remain on the eligible list and may be contacted at a later date if necessary. This usually does not happen if you did not receive an interview and they will just offer another test in the future to acquire the most qualified candidates. Those who are selected will go on to the second interview were the Fire Chief will make final selection from the eligible list with the approval of the City Manager.

EMS Departments follow many of the same guidelines, but are not as restrictive when it comes to vision, physical abilities and the testing process. If you are pursuing an entry-level job or that next level promotion dress as though you already hold the position. Casual attire is not appropriate for testing nor oral interviews
