3 of my friends are. I can ask them a question for you.

ohh, i applied for the job and passed the written and physical and was wondering what i should expect from the oral board as i have not yet taken one. and how many people on average go to the academy

Most Oral Boards are the same, they confirm the info on your application, ask you a bunch of standardized question and then specific questions and usually scenario based questions. The most important thing is to be honest and dont try to BS the board, they will know.

Have they done your B.I. yet? If they have spent the money on the B.I., then they want you. If the B.I. has not been done yet, then you are still a ways off.

Good Luck.

yea im mailing in the Bi this week ts due by the 20th and my interview is the 28th, after the oral board is the polygraph followed by a medical exam

 

[FordSVTFan]

The B.I. is the Background Investigation, since you are mailing in the info that means it hasnt started. So you have too big hurdles, the B.I. and the Polygraph.

Good luck.

thanks, but i dont think ive done anything so terrible as to that either of those would disqualify me from the position

B.I. doesnt necessarily reveal "terrible" things. More often than not, they reveal inconsistencies and lack of candor.

okay thanks for the heads up
