What are the highly desirable requirements??
Welcome to Thailand Great channel firefighters heroes on and all
I can. I will. I must.
You all did such a wonderful job on this interview. Thank you for sharing your advice, encouragement, and service.
So blessed to find this video , just recently got out of the army. I was a medic with the 10th mth div. Currently looking for guidance on the interview process with the fire service.
Thank you so much for posting this inspiring and motivational interview
The TV show used to be on the channel,A&E.
This was super awesome. The battalion chief who was on there was actually on a TV show called live rescue.☺️☺️☺️
In Ca. Go to EMT School, get some ambulance experience, get an AA degree in fire science, put yourself through an accredited fire academy, work for Cal-Fire or Forest Service, go to Paramedic School, you can write your ticket to any Department you’d like to work for! Work hard, put in the time and effort to get hired, good luck!
It takes a lot more than a station visit, and bringing donuts…just sayin’
Question how many hours per day it is and what type of workouts do we need to do?
U.S. Coast Guard (0.02% of Americans who hold this tittle), Master's Degree (Wasn't that important for ADVANCED careers, like the ones that develop, create, and manufacture the tools and equipment Emergency Services utilize?) Gov't: "What else ya got?"
My husband was on our local fire. Department, after a couple years, he decided to walk away because everything that he had seen and experience took an emotional toll on him, especially when it came to children. Now he's talking about wanting to get back into it and I'm. Extremely against it because if something were to happen to him. That will change my life. And I've noticed spouses of law enforcement firefighting military. They always say oh, you need. Anything will be there, but when they reach out because they're struggling with bills or medical or this that the third no 1's to be found. Are they get told sorry we can't do anything. You guys talk and act like it's a family this that the third, but in reality it's not. And that's exactly what I told my husband i'm not Okay, with him taking a job. Where he can be fatally injured.
If a fireman gets injured it's NOT the responsibly of his mates at the department to club in for his treatment! It's the stupid American health system that is at fault! ALL modern countries in the world have free (tax paid) health care for EVERYONE in the country …. rich or poor! You lot are simply brainwashed to think your health system is the best way to go ….. you pay thousands more than anyone else in the world!!!

Here's my problem. I passed cpat, I passed civil service test with a 91%, I am an emt and voluntary firefighter, I wore a suit to the panel interview and did a great job. I was told the department was only hiring 3 people out of the 5 that were being interviewed. I never got a call back even after calling to ask about my application status. One of the guys that was hired instead can't even drive since he's on sr22 insurance BUT his dad is the chief of police. The other guy that got hired is a pot head from a local factory BUT his uncle works on the department. The third guy deserved to get the job but I clearly got pushed aside for some serious bs.
Meybe you should try smoking pot
@caseyadams6168 Might as well.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I feel you man. Don’t worry you’ll get on just have to keep trying. You got it 👍
Keep trying, regardless of how you didn’t get the job doesn’t matter. Look at it as an opportunity to better yourself and be an even better candidate the next year. A lot of times it takes a few tries to achieve the goals you want in life. Like myself for example, this is my 3rd year trying and I passed the tests every time. I may not even get it this year, but I’m going to keep trying and doing what I can. Don’t let the lack of success bother you, only failure should bother you and you didn’t fail.

You need training and qualified staff to direct you. You need to know CPR with advanced training. You need dedication and protection for yourself. Be glad you have what it takes, because, others don't.
That guy in the Taco Bell commercial
I do powerlifting, so of course I hate cardio more than a morning alarm, the step test looks like a torture tactic
I'm 53 and just finished fire academy... It's never too late, unless you live somewhere where you cannot get a new position after a certain age...
New dawn for VFD. Great new Chief. Lots of experience and good leadership kills.
Who asks for this?
Very nice video
Napa cali🤘🏾
How can I apply for the test and work
There’s one born every minute my sister makes 350,000 a month she’s in charge of her future not some city politician
LAFD has lowered the bar so much because of quotas and politics that if you have two legs and two arms your in
Love this❤️🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👍
I started off wanting to become a firefighter but the thought of starting a family has deterred me along the way... Thank you for this video.
Thanks for the video, my test is next week. I am the least qualified as far as experience is concerned but I am putting in my best effort. I am the old guy out there and plan on showing these boys what I can do.
I think it's good they do a practice CPAT test for women, because 90% of women who think they can do the job, actually can't do the job..The test will give them just a taste of how physically demanding the job is. Having said that, I've worked with many female firefighters who were in shape, were great firefighters, and put the work in to do the job.
Shoutout to EMS paramedic and emts that don’t get the credit since sometimes they deserve more !
Shout out to my guys they live across from where I live and they always have my 2 year old exited by the trucks
This is like a young cadet program? Or this is the actual fire academy recruits? just wondering because I didn’t see anyone head shaved (like LAPD recruits do). Does LAFD not make you shave your head like LAPD or the marines do?
No. Hair has to be a certain length, but getting buzzed isn’t mandatory.
I’m making my way through the process of becoming a firefighter. As a women, this is incredibly helpful to see. 🙏🏼🔥
Keep at it! You got this!!!
Please reply 🙏
Sir I became a fire fighter I am from India
Love to hear this!! 🎉
will you guys ever have a paramedic program in oakland or alameda county?
This was so helpful! Thank you 🙏
Sell it! 🔥 🔥
