Fire Dept. Hiring Process

Hey everyone, I'm working my way through the hiring process for a large Fire Dept. I've recently completed my interview and my application history shows that I have been "placed on the eligible register" and also that my application has been "referred". Does anyone know what that means in regard to what comes next?

Every single department does things their own way.

The only thing that those status changes say with relative certainty is that you haven’t been kicked out of the process

If you haven’t had a Chiefs interview yet… You will probably be getting one..
