Spokane: hiring and physical testing ↗

Physical testing

PST is only the initial entry screen. A separate Cooper test includes a 1.5-mile run, one-minute sit-ups, one-minute push-ups and a 300-meter sprint. Thresholds vary by age/gender group.

Additional agency test: The import below covers the initial PST screen only. Obtain and add the separate Cooper requirements before building a complete plan.

Your preparation focus

Obtain your Cooper scoring table before planning. A PST-only workout plan is not preparation for every Spokane physical event.

Researched hiring process & preparation

Partial profile reviewed 2026-10-22. Not proof of an opening.

Minimum requirements

  • Citizen, diploma/equivalent, qualifying character and Massachusetts license. Training page says twenty-one at exam; FAQ says appointment. Training page explicitly permits nonresident applications with preference rules, while academy/FAQ describe one-year prior residence as required. Ask recruiting to resolve age/residency before relying on either interpretation. College not required per FAQ.

Selected requirements, not a complete eligibility or disqualifier checklist.

Lateral entry

Training page describes abbreviated lateral orientation with screening; older FAQ says transfers not accepted and academy required. Current recognition/transfer policy unresolved, not an assured accelerated route.

Benefits

FAQ describes paid academy with benefits and no outside employment. Current rate and equipment obligations require confirmation; no numeric pay verified.
