I know they accept applications year round, but does anyone have any info on what their 2010-2011 recruitment is like?

Havent heard anything, i just got my letter saying they are going to do the physical and exam at the end of april.

Anyone know what the test is over? I've heard a lot of people say its hard to get into this dept? I am coming from Toledo Ohio and it is quite a drive so i was hoping for some input and also wondering if anyone knows how many they will hire?

Going down in April to from Boston. Have no info on the written test as of yet.

Thanks firefuss

So this "written suitability test" is made of "fireteam" tests. This means all video? How many questions will they use from this and will they have any multiple choice on this test besides the fireteam tests? I heared that kind of test isn't very hard? Where do people get knocked out of this hiring process?

thanks for any input

there written test is video based, also they give the physical part in the morning then around 2 you go back an take the written part. when they give there test there is 4 days of testing because so many people apply for the job

That is so those who can't speak or write in English can pick a photo[s] that best suits the question.

[JPJ1987]

So how many questions normally on this kind of written test?

I dunno if that postings actually Greensboro. Greensboro doesn't require any certs.

Right, which is why I'm sure it isn't actually Greensboro, NC. I checked out google maps and found that this district was very close to Greensboro, NC so that may be why it came up this way. Just thought maybe it would be of benefit to someone when I saw it at a glance.
