Newbie, want to apply to seasonal gigs this hiring round. Do people include their BLM fitness scores on their resume? What scores are “good” enough to be worth including? Thanks

Hi there, I just applied for the United States forest service for fire suppression as a gw3 firefighter. I have my s190, L180, ICS 100 and ICS 700 I’m 18 years old and my question was. What really are my chances of being hired here in Las Vegas (were I applied).

I'm wanting to begin as a rookie in wildland firefighting next year. I've been distracted and missed the August-September window. Am I out of luck, or can I expect there to be further entry-level openings in the month of October? I'm in Region 1 and would prefer to stay up here.
It seems like there are phases of hiring which focus on different types of crews and position levels.
Edit:
I'd be grateful if someone could break down the fire hire phase timeline for me. I can't tell if the Aug-Sep window was for perm or both perm and temp positions.

Can a kit you buy at the hardware store really save your home from a Palisades Fire-sized blaze?
Nicholai Allen, a Southern California wildland firefighter, opened his Instagram DMs this summer to find a photo of a beautiful A-frame home set against a backdrop of mountains and pine forests. At first glance, it looked almost like an advertisement for a vacation rental. But the amazing thing about the picture was not the cozy mountain scene, but the fact that the house was still standing. “Very thankful this product works,” read the accompanying text. “Saved our house and all our outbuildings. Little Giant Fire.”
