We based ours on a mix of questions from recruit prep books. Pick up a copy of Barrons or the many other books like it . They have great sample tests that you can use to put together something of your own.
Why would you test for membership in a Volunteer FD? You're going train them anyway.
I guess they do things differently in your area. My FD got taken to court for failing to except a probationary member and giving her the chance to fail. Cost us a lot of money and her nothing. Now new people coming in are proposed with just a 1st initial and last name.
We don"t "vote" members into our department. Our process is much like a career FD. We advertise, accept applications, conduct a basic written and physical test, then interviews... Candidates are selected based on their overall performance, and some variables such as daytime availibility.
Probie period lasts a year, and they can be dismissed at any time.
Still looking -tried the adult education - they want the guys to attend a 10 hour class -"protecting their turf"
