The Oral Board Skinny

2020-08-21T14:04:42+00:00

The Oral Board Skinny With many years in Fire Service, we have seen it all. Yes – we have seen just about every type of person, and every scenario come through the hiring process. We have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly, so to speak.  Here is what we know at www.eatstress.com: If a firefighter candidate is going to get hung up, it will be on the Oral Board.  The average Oral Board lasts about 20 minutes.

A One-Page Resumé

2020-05-28T21:14:40+00:00

A One Page Resume A resume. Yes, you need one. It is pretty much mandatory for any job you would ever want. But, here is the trick – KISS. You have heard that before. It means, Keep It Short and Sweet. When you put your thoughts together for your resume, write it believing the raters won’t go past the first page. I am telling you the truth here. Be concise.

You may feel this is a HOOK and that it will carry weight. But, [...]
