Philadelphia just announced that they will be giving the civil service exam for Firefighter, date has not yet been determined, however it will
most likely be September. You do not need to be a resident of the City
of Philadelphia to test, but you need to be a resident ONE year PRIOR to
getting hired. In other words if you score really good, you better get an
apartment or address that you can prove you live at!! Philly's Civil
Service people will want to see utility bills, deeds, mortgages, rental
agreements, auto insurance records, payroll records, and driver license
records!!
You can get an application to take the test in any Philadelphia public
library, fire station, police district, or from civil service at the Municipal
Services Building. For any out of towners that want to take the test,
drop me an email and I'll get you one. You fill out the app, send it in,
and then you get a letter notifying you of the time and place to sit for
the exam. Thats it- if you can't make it there and then, too bad, so
sad. Also in the letter will be info for where and when you can obtain
your study book, but they issue those no less that 2 weeks prior to the
test. You have to take your letter to a police or fire station, and they
issue a book to you.
Good Luck on whatever tests you may try!!
