Anyone know how many people YFD is looking to hire off of this up-coming list?

Could be 0, could be 30 you never know.

You take the written and physical exams and if you pass, you get added to the list. When the Chief needs to hire people, he takes them from the list. Last year, I think there were about 10 new hires to replace people who left or retired. Since the city isn't growing, the department isn't adding any additional people to its roster above what it needs to staff the existing units.

Since the list is good for 2 years, I'd say maybe 20 or 30 people will get chosen. That's if the city doesn't cut funds for the FD.
