Physical Agility Test / Oral Interviews

Recruiting for 2011 is now starting. Ventura County Sheriff's Search & Rescue is accepting applications for new recruits for their training to start in January 2011. Prospective members should attend an orientation to find out just what is involved or expected, then receive a paperwork package. Prospective members must pass a physical agility test and oral interviews before being considered for the team. The Ventura County Search & Rescue Fillmore team does test individuals on their ability to carry a 30 pound back pack over the course of 3 miles in a time limit of 50 minutes. Afterwards they will be interviewed by a panel of current members on their desire to become members on the team.

If you would like to try out for our team please contact recruitment@VCSAR1.org for the necessary paper work.
