Any emails yet?

[rescue_1]

No emails here, besides the "application received" one. And the page is the 'Official Prince George's County Fire/EMS Department" page. If you scroll down enough posts you'll find one with the 2012 budget in it.

Has anyone gotten the CPAT Orientation date email yet? They said at the test we would hear something in about two weeks.

Rumor is the Orientation is June 12...

Has anyone received the results from the test?

[Engine2323]

Received an email a few days ago saying I passed with a 91.2 and then another email with CPAT info. How did everyone else do?

[MiniRide]

Nice Work Engine.. That's a really good score.

[Engine2323]

Thanks mini. From what Iv read though your score on the test only really helped you advance to the cpat. Correct me if I'm wrong but it seemed on the other threads as if things like prior experience and certs (EMT) carried more weight in hiring than did test scores. I do not have any experience with this process so perhaps I am wrong.
