Candidates for any of these agencies will be able to sign up for the next written testing on Friday, Dec. 19, 2008 in the basement conference room at Joplin City Hall, 602 S. Main Street and for physical testing that will be administered on Saturday, Dec. 20 (and the 21st, if needed) at Joplin Memorial Hall, 212 W. 8th St.
This regional approach to firefighter candidate testing has benefits for both the candidates and the participating agencies. Obviously, the candidates looking to attain a position as a firefighter need only test once to be considered by several agencies, saving time and money. Benefiting the agencies, collaborative testing provides for better test validation, uniformity in requirements, non-duplication of recruitment expenses and a more broad candidate pool.
