Our tactical video has samples of all types of tests. The example you are speaking of is a Dynamic Role Play. This is very common with many testing companies, we see this more often with smaller departments due the logistics cost and consistency with role players. You can purchase the class here. facp.litmos.com/self-signup/register/29970?type=1
I’ve heard there are too many inconsistencies with the role play method. For example the answers will differ from the interview depending on what you give them. Hiring officials have found it much more “even” to do a tabletop...just from what I’ve read.
Look up our pricing on www.FireassessmentCenterPrep.com , It depends on what classes you need. Send me an email at ChiefJohns@gmail.com We can give you a free consultation when we get more info about your test. Bottom line is our preparation will make you money with that promotion all the way through retirement.
I am taking an assessment for LT on the 20th, this seems like doing a Clincon scenario, but after 7 mins of talking that's when you spoke about putting water on the fire, and you were a working officer no way all that stuff can get done while you are inside fighting the fire. I guess it's all points and not real time scenario
I have an assessment for Captain on the 28th. It’s though to talk your way through the incident like this. All of this stuff goes on our head when we’re arriving but rarely do we ever talk it out like this. Def something to get used to. How does your promotional process work in your department?
@@jamesbarnes1847 For the Lieutenant position we had a written exam 100 multiple choice questions, those that passed move on to the assessment portion that has an interpersonal issue, a tactical scenario and then a rapid decision session.
Tough*^ Ours are based on Resumes first and foremost, then the top Candidates receive interviews which involve An Oral Interview, Answer Administrative questions and also a Tactical Scenario(table top). Stressing for sure lol
@@jamesbarnes1847 How did it go? I have a promotional process similar to @fireguy57 at my department. We don't have a test date yet, but one of the Captains is leaving. I'm thinking about purchasing the fire assessment center prep program. Did you use this program, if so what are your thoughts?
Shaun S Hey Shaun, my extensive preparation eased my anxiety and it turned out pretty well. Ended up placing second out of 11 candidates that interviewed. I believe I was the youngest to interview period. This honestly helped me out. I did not purchase the program but I see where doing so could have given me that edge. I devoured my departments SOGs, Processes and anything on RUclips about IC and the process in which tasks should be completed. I read, studied and also converted most of the study material to an audio recorder app so that I could listen to it in my car during the drive. I just started in my position a few weeks back and just like anything it’s a whole different world and weight on your shoulders riding in the front seat. Let me know if I can help in any way.
These are golden
You mention presence of sprinklers and standpipes but no mention of use of them or FDC...
My comment certainly does not have any negative connotations intended, merely an observation. Your videos have been very helpful.
Is it required to flow all this steps when you arrived the Sean with fire captain and dispatcher?
yes
How about the tactical with a radio and a person who role plays with you?

Way too long to get a positive source of water. I would use 2 and 1/2 inch hose. It’s a contents fire. Collapse is not a reasonable concern.
Who on earth downvotes this?
