WRITTEN EXAMINATION INFORMATION

To receive hiring consideration, all applicants must first receive a passing score on the City of Miami’s written examination. The written examination consists of two parts, and is designed to simulate the learning tasks required of candidates at the City of Miami Fire Training Center. The exam will measure the ability to read and understand written material and to understand verbal communication from others. Additional points to the exam score may be awarded with proof of the following:

• Veteran’s Preference
• State of Florida Firefighter Certification
• State of Florida Paramedic Certification
• State of Florida EMT Certification

Applicants will be mailed written notification of the date, time and location of the examination after the closing date of the current recruitment. In the meantime, applicants who submit a complete application at the City of Miami Employment Office will be provided a study guide(s) to assist in preparing for the written examination. Use the time before the examination wisely. Prepare! Prepare! Prepare! This is a very competitive process, and a rewarding career awaits those hired.
