I want to be a firefighter, but I got a past I'm not proud of. I have a clean record, but I know they do a polygraph test. Should I apply anyway?

any firefigthers on adv?
>>16815499
Do they really take a polygraph or are you just paranoid?
Nah a lot of firefighters aren't good people.
>>16815882
they do actually do one
>>16815888
That was my thought. Not morally not good just not the most lawful
>>16815499
No one gives a shit about your past. For hosedraggers you need to be willing to take the poly and be physically fit. You also need someone in the firehouse to get you hired as those are competitive jobs. For coppers it's the same, but our poly tests actually will impact a hiring decision.

so if i take the test and they find out, what would happen? I can study my ass off for the test and get fit, but that polygraph test is holding me back
>>16815927
Good think you retards get payed to drag hoses and shoot water and not think
polygraphs are a joke
>>16815945
GOOD THING
FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKkkkkkkkkkk tired typos pls go
People still use polygraphs or think they're relevant? Jesus christ.
>>16815945
I know they're not accurate. I just want to know if my past, if they ask me questions, will it hinder me from being hired?
>>16815971
Probably
Just lie you'll be fine
>>16815977
most people are saying to just be honest since it's the fire department. Why do you say to lie?
>>16815992
because clearly you have shit to hide
>>16815997
Maybe I should just be honest
