Every three to

members of the
public to apply
to become a New
York City

you will receive
an admission

before the test
date.
The Written Exam
focuses on a
number of topics
that gauge a
candidate’s
ability to learn
and perform the
duties of a
Firefighter,
including
reading
comprehension,
problem solving,
spatial
recognition and
applying rules
to general
concepts. It
does not require
any pre-existing

Department.
You will then be
called to take
the physical
portion of the

series of
challenges
designed to test

categories of
fitness that are
crucial in
firefighting.

which can take
approximately

years.

background
investigation.
