MVPD Exam

[Stewie 1]

Does anyone know what a good number to be on the MVPD list is? I heard from someone that as long as you are in the top 100 you in good shape...does this sound right to any of you guys?

100 sounds high.

If the life of the list is four years 100 is not unrealistic. If they canvas three candidates for every two positions they actually fill (probably not a stretch when you factor in medicals, agilities, psychologicals, background investigations, other jobs hiring, etc.) they'll go through the first 100 to hire 66 (or so).

MVPD typically puts anywhere from 6-12 in each academy class if that's any help.

Top 50 is much more realisitic. They generally put about 10 people in the fall academy and about 6 or 8 in the winter academy. Ya got to figure that one in every 3 get picked since the others have misdemeanors, credit problems or failed psychs.

100 is not high, considering the turnover rate in the Vern. That's why they're constantly putting guys on, to replace the high number of transfers.

The list is replaced every year however, so 100 will usually not be reached.
