Participating departments in the
Carolina Fire Recruitment Alliance
are currently accepting applications for
Entry Level Firefighter positions.
This application period is open from:
December 19, 2016 through February 3, 2017
Overview:
The City of Albemarle, City of Concord, Town of Harrisburg, and City of Salisbury have developed a joint firefighter recruitment process. This process saves these cities the cost of doing independent recruitment efforts and is more efficient for candidates because they can apply with more than one city using the same testing process.
Not all departments currently have firefighter vacancies, but this testing will be used to establish an eligibility list which will be used to fill future vacancies as they occur. When the testing process is complete, the eligibility list will be made available to the listed departments.
Testing Dates:
· CPAT Orientation Sessions (February 17th & February 18th)
· CPAT Practice Sessions and Final Test (March 9th, March 10th, March 30th, March 31st, April 7th)
· Candidates who successfully complete the CPAT will move on to the written exam (tentative date is April 27th at 6:00 PM location TBD)
