I recently moved to a smaller town within the last two years as I lived in a big city and with scores in the 90's on the test I was always low on the list. I took the test in April as my new town did not have an age limit (I am 35).
The scores came out on November 1st and I was number 6. Today I recieved a letter from civil cervice stating my town added the age limit law. When I went online to see my standings, I found that I was taken off of the list and only remained on the cities that I do not reside in.
I made an appointement to meet with the Chief next week to see if there is some type of waiver, but an LT at the station told me that I "Didn't have a snowball chance in hell"
I have experience and training and did recieve points for experience on the test. I heard there was a similair case in Boston and I hope anyone can tell me anything about it, or if someone knows of anyone challenging it. Also, what do you suggest I might say when I meet the chief. Thank you!
