HFRS retained application
« on: July 10, 2008, 08:38:47 PM »
On the Hampshire Fire and Rescue website, there is a downloadable word file for the retained duty application pack. Is this the complete application? Because there is nothing in this application pack to do with PQAs, just personal details.

this is just to get the basic info-there is no point making you spend loads of time doing pqa's (which a lot of applicants get wrong) if it it turns out you are too far from the station,or not able to cover the hours that are required, so initial info,and if that is ok then the rest of the application kicks in.They will also give advice at a workshop on how to complete the PQA's.

'The information you provide on your application form is the only information we will use in deciding whether or not you are to proceed to the next stage of the recruitment process.'

'Many candidates fail the application stage because they do not read or follow the instructions. The instructions are there to advise you what we are looking for from candidates and help you to sell yourself, so please read them carefully.'
