FDNY EMS Candidates

Hey guys, I just have a quick question, maybe someone can help me out. I had my intake today and on the form, I put that I resigned from all of the jobs I left, with the exception of one where I was laid off because the company closed down. Upon leaving, I called one of my old managers and he told me for some reason, I was automatically processed out of the system at one of my other jobs because it showed that I didn't show up for my last two shifts. He acknowledged that this wasn't true and that he would clear it up if FDNY contacted him, but I'm worried if they contact HR, they will say I was "fired" and FDNY will think I lied on my application. So I called my investigator, and honestly, he was just like I'm gonna send the forms out to your employers and that's it. Like almost annoyed that I called him. Now I'm really worried this is going to hurt me if they go to HR and not to my manager and I already tried speaking to my investigator and was pretty much shot down. Help?

They send the form to the address you list. A majority of my previous employers are not allowed to disclose information even if They wanted to due to policies in place
 
Hey guys, so I applied on exam 6003, and I'm list number 42x. I took my pat and intake interview and haven't heard any word on my medical or psychological. Has any body heard back that's close to my list number?

Be patient bro. You've got a long way to go still. Unfortunately it is not as quick as would like however it is a good time to begin training and getting yourself ready for the academy. Best of luck my friend
 
Can anyone who is in the academy answer a question for me?

The mile and a half run, is it point a to b (or a to b and back) or is it laps around a track? I don't know why this little thing matters to be but I just can't seem to hit a mile on a track in a decent time but I can do it no problem If I go point a to b...

We ran a 5k we held huge flags and ran along the cross island parkway for memorial day so don't focus on just a mile and a half its gonna be much more then that, we ran it Tuesday then Wednesday again with the flags. So practice 4 miles

I'm slowly trying to build up to that. At the moment I can do a mile and a half in 15. Thank you for the pointer though :)

Youre welcome don't focus too much on the timing you're running in a group with a pace set by the slowest runners.
 
You guys on 6003 will get called quickly. They're stocking up every station and every division because of the promo. I think the next few classes will be 180.

Through the rumor mill. August. Which means you're gonna have a lot of stuff thrown at you quickly. Once that PAT is done, you'll do intake, medical, psych rather quickly. Make sure you have all your stuff in order.

True. The academy class now, and the August academy will have many people signing up for the promo, along with everyone who got on Ems in late 2012 and after, after the last promo was given. Everyone after that will be unfortunately miss out. But the process will fly because they're getting ready to lose ALOT of bodies to the next promo being given in Defenber

Nah filing is the month of August. As long as they're sworn in before the END of the Filing they can apply to take the test, but still have to do their 2 years. August will be last class eligible to sit for the promotional
 
I've seen some of the 6003 guys talking about taking this promotional on this forum, gonna have to hold off and take 2020-2021 exam, time flies though

The thing I'm starting to notice is that they (all of us candidates) think things are going to run so quick when in actuality it's a very lengthy process
