I have an interview next week with the VBFD. What can I expect from the panel interview? I have done a ton of reading on Firehouse.com.

Anyone else get this far? If so, do you know how many? How many are they hiring?

2 weeks ago I was told that 70 were taking the polygraph exam. Now that its over I wonder how many passed it and are going on to the interview process.

Anyone here in the same boat?

Well, I had the interview.

Their interview process is sort of weird.

First, I was interviewed by 3 Chiefs of the dept. Each Chief would ask certain questions from a paper they use for all people interviewed.

Then, after I leave, they would view my file which contained resume and additional information.

Anyone know why they do it this way? I got caught way off guard.

I had an interview yesterday as well with VBFD.

The format was kind of "weird," but I dont think I did that bad. I was definitely nervous.

Good luck to you and let me know how you do.

Are they sending out letters to everyone, even though they may not be chosen? Or are they just sending letters out to the ones chosen? I am not sure.
