boston mass fd info - probation period

note - everyone is a EMT and FF 1/2

================================

The next step is the screening process. Our screening of potential
candidates includes:

a character background check
a medical fitness screening
a drug test, and
a psychological exam.

Based on the results, we add you to a class at the Boston Fire Academy.

If you join the Boston Fire Department, you'll have to go through a
probation period of one year. During this time, you will:

finish your work at the Firefighter Academy
get your Firefighter 1 and 2 certifications, and
get certified as an Emergency Medical Technician.

Once you get through your probation period, you become a member of the
department as a Boston firefighter.
