FWC September 2019 Closing Date Discussion

[st_martin]

I got my moving on email as-well!!! Lots more to do indeed!!
look forward to hopefully meeting everyone!

[st_martin]

Anyone know what the next step is ?? Are we waiting for the investigator to get in touch with us ?

[OliverFWC]

From reading past FWC groups it seems so. An investigator will be in touch to give you further direction/information. I would also assume this is the step where they will call the 5 year references you listed in the supplemental application.

Looks like you guys won't be here till the begining of next year.

I spoke with the background investigator. He was doing my references yesterday, everything is going smoothly. Those of us who are already state certified and received a conditional offer, we will be employees after our background pending no issues. Class starts in January. I dont have a date for the breakout portion for us though. I'm also unsure what we would be doing until the class starts. Anyone have any further details?

[OliverFWC]

I haven’t been contacted yet by my BI so still waiting here. I’m non-sworn though

[OliverFWC]

I was contacted by BI today.

Just a heads up everyone in the 07/02 closing date..FWC extended application window on 07/10 and it closes on 08/31. I guess they didn't receive enough applications..

[OliverFWC]

My background investigator said he heard in a meeting that next academy might be pushed to March.

[SaltyDog]

As in your academy or the following academy?

[OliverFWC]

The academy that I would go to if I make it through the process.

[SaltyDog]

They seem to be making the process longer throughout the years.

Anyone received any word regarding the background checks? As in when to expect an email with results?

[OliverFWC]

Not yet. I know my investigator was just wrapping mine up last week so it may be a bit.

[Rogers65]

Hey guys just a heads up. They have closed this hiring process. So You should’ve got a email. Have to reapply in February..

[Eddyp0311]

Is it specifically for class 41 or for the following class applicants

[Rogers65]

Yes. I contacted my BI and that’s what he told me. Hopefully they will start up where they left off on our backgrounds in February

[chasewaters25]

Did everyone get this email saying the process is halted until February? I did not get one personally just trying to confirm

[OliverFWC]

I did not receive an email

[OliverFWC]

I talked to my recruiter about two weeks ago about the August hiring deadline because I was going to apply just in case I didn’t make it through this one and she said that it was cancelled until February. She said hope you keep making it through the current one so I don’t think they are canceling our current process it should continue forward.

[BenjaminL]

state budget cuts. those of us who got accepted this round made it through. more than likely they will be on a hiring freeze after our class. my packet is at Tallahassee, background is complete. those of us who are prior sworn should start working in October/November as non sworn until completion of breakout.

[BenjaminL]

where does everyone live? and where are you wanting to work? I'm in Tampa

[Monotonous1]

I'm stationed in Tampa now and what they are telling you is true, class 41 won't start till next october due to budget issues.
