Cheyenne fire & rescue

[fordguy]

Did anyone test with Cheyenne fire this week? If so how was the interview and does anyone know why they wouldn't expect a CPAT cert?

215 applied. 190 tested. 75 went to CPATs. The CPAT is the standard (stepmill, hose drag, equipment carry, ladder raise & extension, etc) administered at Station 4 training center. Operations officer said that it is likely they will accept up to date CPAT cards in lieu of their test in the future. Oral consisted of 4 questions for FF candidates. They were operating assembly line style - in and out in 5 minutes. Rankings announced next week - great time and some of the most genuinely friendly and accommodating folks around. I'm live in a big west coast city (which I love) and would move to Cheyenne/Fort Collins area in a heartbeat if the opportunity presents.

I would love to work up there as well, how did you do on the written?

95. Its a waiting game now.

Cheyenne has posted the rankings, I am in the top 40. I scored low on the written so I must have scored high on the oral board.
Does anyone know how high/low they went on the last list?
