Recruitment Employment Requirements
Entry level firefighter (ELF) employment requirements are
established by the Rogers Civil Service Commission based on
a combination of State law and locally determined policy.
The principle features of those requirements are:
have attained the age of 21 years but not yet 35 years at
the date of formal examination;
- have graduated from high school or achieved a GED
certification;
- provide an affidavit of non-smoking;
- possess a valid motor vehicle operator license
To become eligible for hire, the Civil
Service exam consisting of a written portion, oral interview
by the Board, oral interview by RFD staff, and physical
ability test must be completed with satisfactory scores.
Prior to employment the candidate must pass a State
established medical exam and law enforcement background
check.
Certified eligibility lists remain valid for a twelve (12)
month period.
