I echo Pac's earlier comment. Good luck to everyone at interviews this week.
Regarding the re-applying if unsuccessful. I believe, from what I can remember of the information session is that they keep your file on record for 2 years.
So you are able to re-apply. However, they may reject your application if you failed one of the steps.
This is what I took away from the information night. I may be well off the mark though so please don't hold this as fact.
If I am unsuccessful at my interview on Thursday I will still be re-applying next intake to try and put myself back in the mix.
All you can do is try and try again! Good luck!

I have heard similar, anywhere from 120-150 people go through the PAT 1.

I didn't ask nor did anybody else in my group.
But they are sticking to their proposed dates pretty well, so I would hazard a guess that emails will most likely be sent late this week or early next week.
How many people did you have in your time slot sj000?
We had 22 people.

I may be wrong, but I believe they were getting all the PAT 1 testing done on Friday.
I must have been in the same group as PAC, as I had 1 person not show & 1 not make the 9.6 requirement.
Now patiently waiting for the invites to interview to be sent out.

I sat my test on the 20th also. My last name is towards the last 1/2 of the alphabet as well.
My email for PAT 1 came through at about 4:30 on Friday. Good luck to everyone waiting.
No news is good news!

Yeah the waiting game is underway. We will hear something when we hear something.
Meanwhile, training for PAT 1 is still in full swing!

I agree, last time was a little bit of a delay.
But they were predicting PAT 1 testing to start approx Sept 17th. So could be soon hopefully, but testing is still going this week as well I believe.

Hey TLC92,
There is no point hiding them at the numeracy and personality abilities testing phase as I don't think they are looking that hard at each person as they will be seeing approx 200 people per day.
In my opinion it is probably best to be upfront and honest right from the get go.
If you have visible tattoos they will ask for photo's of them anyway at some stage of the process.
As Canine said, it all depends if they are seen to be offensive or not.
Good luck.

Not sure if this will help anyone, but I was passing this info on to another applicant so thought Id share it here just in case it does help someone out.
These are the rough dates for the Recruit process that they gave at the seminar:
These are the dates I have written down from the seminar:
- Monday 13th August Testing 4-6 weeks
- 17th September PAT 1 Testing
- Monday 8th October Interviews
- Monday 29th October PAT 2 Testing
- Monday 29th October Medical
- Friday 2nd November Employment Checks
- 21st January First Recruit Course Starts
These are all approx dates they gave. May change depending on varied factors. But that’s what they will be working towards.
Hope this may help some people with time frame etc.
as before, good luck to everyone on the recruit process.

I received mine about an hour ago. Same for me, exactly 2 weeks for the test date.
Bootcamp:
I have been using Fire Recruitment Australia as well as a few other online test's that I can find.
A friend of mine in the SAMFS has lent me some books that he used a few years back as well. They may be outdated, but still good practice.
I'm thinking the same, a few different test styles may help.
Good luck to everyone!

SAMFS Recruitment Invitation to Pay also received and paid!
From memory at the seminar they indicated that testing would start approx Monday 13th August and run for 4-6 weeks.
This is all dependent on how many applications they have to go through I would imagine.
But at least now the ball is rolling, its all a little exciting really!
Good luck to everyone who is applying.
