I'm pretty sure Wax would have to meet all the requirements that everyone else met, regardless of where she lived. Wonderful community or not.
And we don't know that she did not. Because ONLY NY uses the FST test. Wax did not meet the FST requirements. The rest of the country uses the CPAT test. There is no information on how Wax scored on the test acceptable everywhere but NY.
However, since the CPAT is a requirement as well, I assume she passed the CPAT, or the 'insider source' would have said she failed both.
The CPAT is a legally defensible and legitimate tool for assessing eligibility for employment. In addition to being endorsed by the IAFF and IAFC, the test meets validity criteria established by the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice, and the U.S. Department of Labor.

NO ONE outside of NY uses the FST test. Does that mean all firefighters outside of NY are incompetent? :scale: There is a reason no one else uses the FST test.
Now, if Wax failed the CPAT that is a different story, but that is NOT what was leaked to msm.
