Dublin Fire Brigade Recruiting This Year?

Richie15 · 2011-07-12 21:26:11

I've heard a rumour that DFB will be recruiting some time this year. Trouble is, I heard the rumour around this time last year and it's already July with no sign. Anyone got any update? This was originally posted here in Work & Jobs. Seems to indicate the rumour was correct. Any more info on this would be greatly…

Dublin Fire Brigade currently have a recruit panel live until May 2010, decision will be made in May whether to keep the panel active or to start a fresh recruitment drive. Currently there are 110 Members left on the panel.

Should the decision be taken to keep the panel live, a class will be recruited from the 110 members mid-late summer 2010. I would imagine that the class numbers will be appx 50 with Class 4, the same in 2011.

Seems to indicate the rumour was correct. Any more info on this would be greatly appreciated, hoping it'll be soon but not so soon I don't get a chance to do the laser on my Eyes first. :cool:

Cheers Lads!

Just so I know now since it'll be a while before they recruit again, what's the driving licence requirement for the DFB? Is it a D licence?
