I interviewed at Los Angeles Fire Department (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
Very long, it’s definitely a big game of “hurry up then wait”. However when things get moving things really get to moving so patience is key. Check your email daily that will be their main method of communication, rarely will they call but they have called me a couple times (they will leave a message).
You will Meet with a panel. It is a Character based interview. If you study and prepare you'll be fine. Met with current firefighter and personnel. Interview took about 30 minutes.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Los Angeles Fire Department (Los Angeles, CA) in Jan 2017
Interview
Applied by email following the instructions on a PDF message. Received a call a few weeks later. The interview was entirely by phone. I was grilled on technical concepts and skills that I ought to know given what I had studied thus far. Found it surprising that I was selected.
