does anyone remember when the civil service test was announced. I know last test, the application period was Sept. 4-24 but what day did they first post the exam form?

I wore dress pants with a button down shirt and tie. You will be taking your shirt off and rolling up your sleeves so I left the jacket at home.

The doctor let you know at the end how you did?
 
Hey everyone,

Sorry if it's been posted before but I'm wondering: is FDNY the sole provider of EMS in NYC?

No, but FDNY controls ems. You have fdny, voluntaries (hospitals) volunteers, and privates which mostly do transports and nursing home emergencies and 2 have 911 contracts (seniorcare and transcare)
 
They have the majority of EMS in the city and are constantly expanding as the private hospitals close.

That's why if you want ems as a career, go fdny

I prefer the term oversees

I believe there are about 40 or so EMS systems which provide 911 coverage in NYC.

You're talking about hospitals right? I meant two private companies which have a 911 contract
 
Does anyone know how many people are in one academy class? I heard 150 in one class, there's a day and night class so 300 and with 4 classes per year, 1200 people are in the academy per year. Is this correct?

If you signed up for onsite scoring, you get a temp certificate, otherwise you'll get your card and score in a month or so, I waited 4 weeks
