sally port

Thanks guys I really appreciate that feedback. I would love to go take an ARFF course but haven't found one that is near me or can fit in my schedule if I need to travel. I applied to Sallyport before the transition even took place but never heard anything from them. I was hoping that WSI would work with them and ensure that we were at least contacted for interviews but that was wishful thinking haha. I know that they are able to send me because I was so close before so now I'm aggressively pursuing it again. After the last run around with WSI I thought I was spent but I still would really like to have that experience of traveling and making good money before I settle down. Any information for contacting recruiters would be appreciated here too. Thanks again guys.

did u try the sallyport way

ya i tried sally port which was surprising i didn't hear anything since wsi had me all set to go. I'm looking for an arff course but theyre expensive and I would have to travel. I live in Idaho so I'm looking at one in Denver our anywhere else semi close. If anyone has the contact for Sallyport that would be great, email me [email protected] please . The gal at ITT was awesome at answering my questions via email btw so thank you for posting her contact info. Its great when you're going through the process and you have someone that is thorough and quick.

I signed up for an Arff course in Denver on May 9. If anyone else is going to that shoot me a message. Hopefully this well get me back going overseas soon. I'm still confused at how some of these companies require Telecommunication, both airport firefighter and arff?

Different companies call it different things. ARFF is the same as airport firefighter. As long as you get a NFPA 1003 IFSAC or ProBoard certificate at the end, then your good!

tomdfireman10, I went all the way through the Wackenhut process back in October and got the plane ticket. Then I was told that the contract was cancelled and that they were gonna send my information to Sallyport. It has been almost 6 months since Wackenhut screwed me and havent heard a thing. When did you apply for Sallyport?

[wrfpd9922]

Anything from Dyncorp?

Has anybody heard from Dyncorp recently? Rumor is that they are gonna start hiring this Spring but havent heard much else. Let me know if you have heard from them recently.
