Does anyone know if seattle is hiring this year? It's kinda my dream department. But I haven't seen or heard anything.
I just received an email from their automated recruitment office and here is what it said...
After careful examination of our projected hiring needs, we will not open an entry level Firefighter application period in 2009 for testing in 2010.
Hopefully more departments will start testing. Good luck to you!
Just got that same notice; bit of a downer.
AdamWest are you on the waiting list for Tacoma?
Wonder if they are going to train any medics...
No, I'm in Minnesota. Seattle is my dream dept. though so I was out there for the last test.Quote:

I thought they took applicants for the harborview program? they hire those every march or something?Quote:
