A list of eligible applicants will be established based on the examination as outlined.

the govt jobs website says you need a md license to apply, but the baltimore county website says you do not. which is it?

[MikeLowrey]

well on the govt. jobs website next to application status it says "schedule" under that its says 9/11/10 at 3pm...this is all fine and good, my question is where am I suppossed to be? Just wondering if anyone else has something similiar.

[MikeLowrey]

"Have a valid driver’s license equivalent to a non-provisional, non-commercial, Class C Maryland driver's license is required at the time of application"........

I believe this states that you are required to just have a valid license that is equivalent, in other words no you are not required to have a MD license

Written test

I took the written on August 28th and it wasn't too bad. They said they'd be sending an email out to the people that chose to get email's and letters to the people that chose paper. There will be practice sessions for the physical portion and they recommended coming to the practice. They offered a power point presentation about the company and what the life is like in their department after the written test. Everyone will have to wait till they get all the tests scored before they send out letters for the physical ability.

I took the written 9/11 seemed like there are alot of names on the list to take this test, they said possibly an academy of 30 in January and something like 60 vacancies at this time.
