NEW: Resiliency and Emotional Stability Assessment
This assessment consists of 344 test items and is designed to screen current applicants for characteristics of resiliency and emotional stability. It also helps to identify positive psychological characteristics that are associated with successful performance as a firefighter. The report generated from this assessment will provide the service with a series of risk statements about the applicant, identification of traits that may interfere with the applicant’s effective performance on the job, and a unique graphic and narrative picture of the applicant’s interpersonal style. This self-assessment takes approximately 50-60 minutes to complete. For more information and fees, please email Laura Hotham at [email protected].
