Joining MFS

(1/16) > >>

RedKoopa:
Hey everyone,

I want to join the MFS and I've heard it's really hard to get into. Would being in the CFS give me any sort of advantage over the other applicants? Also can anyone give me any advice or pointers that would help me get in?

Thanks

If you want to get into the MFS fulltime you will nto have any major advantage over anyone else. Go to the MFS website and read up the pre-requisites, prepare as much as you can,yes there is a lot of competition for positions.

Train hard, run run run run run run run!  Its what IM doing as getting into MFS is my aim.  Started long distance running, terrible luck for Craig Mottram...

Being BA trained, COmpartment fire trained shoul give you an advantage if you get equal score with others? )I assume its like the USA where you score out of 100) 

I went down to Gawler last December and spoke to the S.O there he said those who are in a trade have an advantage cause of there hands on experience.  Also I heard ex police and army people have an advantage due to the type of job they have been in.  Maybe cruise down to your local station and have a chat to them, see what they have to say.

MFS is by far the hardest service to join in Aust,make sure you have the maths,science and the PE and you could have a chance. I hear there is a intake soon,if you dont get in join another paid service work for them for a few years and transfer back into MFS....
