Thanks. I was processed starting July 8. I am still waiting to hear about my medical. If you call HR they give you all sorts of attitude. A no thanks letter would be nice after literally jumping through hoops.

What is a referral lot number? I am completely unfamiliar with the referral system in Chicago.Last edited by SPFD_EMT51; 02-03-2020, 02:19 AM.

For example- of the 19 veterans on the list, they are all referral lot 1 regardless of their lottery number due to their low numbers. CPS preference has guys in lots 1, 2 and 3. But the guys in lot 3 had lottery numbers in the 700’s. Guys with no preference but lottery numbers between 1-120 still got referral lot one, but folks with no preference with lottery numbers in the 700’s are lot 5.
Hope that helps

New (and only) update:
the class that began march 3rd, 2020, which is supposedly the last academy from the 2014 list, has been fast tracked due to the covid 15 pandemic. Those medics are now done with the academy and on the street.
There may or may not be a silver lining for us on the 2019 list but who knows.
I have a rough rough draft of CFD’s planned academy’s and hires, but as far as EMS goes there was no decent information. In fact, the proposed class dates were actually set in the past (2019), not the future. So there truly appears to be no reliable information as to their plans.
Everyone stay safe.

According to a retired chief who spends most of his free time submitting FOIA requests to Chicago HR, there is the possibility of a June class for medics.
June seems a bit early, considering he just posted this information yesterday. So that doesn’t leave much time for processing. However, this guy is one of the only reliable sources for information out there.
it’s been a while since there’s been a sliver of information so I’ll take it.
hope everyone is staying safe. And to everyone that’s actively working in healthcare right now, I know it blows but keep up the good work.
