Background:
The Olympia Fire Department is requesting to expire the current register of Entry-Level Candidates (total of 34 candidates) scores ranging from 71.85%-85.23%. In 2024 OFD successfully moved through the top 38% of the register and is seeking to establish a new register (also on this agenda) to be approved. Candidates on the 2024 register have not completed a chief’s interview and candidates on the 2025 proposed register have successfully passed the chief’s interview and are ready to begin the background process.
