[PhillyFire]

Getting this thread started hopefully for the newbies and recent applicants just getting their results/ranking in the last
month or two, with the new hiring options...so feel free to chime in with any news info, rumor mill stuff that you may have come across, my son was emailed his ranking of 667 in early May,, hasn't heard anything since. I work at the fire academy which is next to the police academy and i know that they have two classes up there now..
He tested 2 years ago passed went to the physical fitness test, twisted his ankle on the 4 lap around the bldg. And was never rescheduled. So this time around with the new options he took it.. placed 667, and hasn't heard anything..

I got my results around then also, ranked 718 I think, was scheduled my physical for June 7th but couldnt make it and had to reapply. He should contact the recruitment section or maybe you can ask someone at the academy, I dont see how they wouldn't have an answer.

Thats the number they gave me in the email when I got my ranking and such, over there do the cops and fd guys have a good working relationship? Sounds like no one wants to help, I thought we were all on the same team!

Police n Fire have a great working relationship, its just that they hire so many more cops than firefighters that its two complete different worlds literally,, with a police force of nearly 4k cops and 1700 firemen,, hiring practices are much different, plus the recent administration has divided us over contract issues.. we are no longer the same.. the cops get many more perks than we do... "plus cops can move out of the city in 5 years.......... but the working on street relationship is great... as you saw on world news the cops surrounding the firehouse where the 4 kids died in a house fire. . . .

Well the 7/18/14 application deadline has come and gone,, anybody moving forward try to keep the forum posted of your progress:
ranking
p t test etc. etc....

that way all can kinda gauge themselves on what to expect,, to see the validity of a october class?

From a recruiter... rankings come out in Sept, slow process after that due to holidays through the end of the year, don't expect to see a new class until early 2015...

Philly recruitment is waiting for the green light to mail out the blue cards,, so stand by to stand by....
recruitment welcomes status phone calls, as they are in limbo also.
