You're welcome, thanks for your kind words!

Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you're finding the info beneficial!

First, have you gone to my website www.code3firetraining.com - specifically the "FREE STUFF" page? I have lots of questions and resources there as well that might help. Second, can you shoot me an email with a little more background on what part of the country you're from, type of department you're in, etc? That can help me better answer your question. My email is on my website.

Chief, thank you very much for reaching out and for your kind words and feedback. It means a lot, especially from someone like you. Seriously, I appreciate you.

Sorry for the delay. If you go to my website code3firetraining.com - then the free stuff page - then scroll down towards the bottom to the area with the heading: "Promotional Preparation & Officer Development Documents:" - you'll see a pdf titled: "Sample Fire Captain / Company Officer Oral Interview Questions." Let me know if you have trouble finding it. Thanks for your interest in checking the info out.

Thanks for your kind words and feedback Chris, I truly appreciate you. Thanks for the background info as well, glad to see I'm in good company.

Glad you like them!

You're welcome, glad to hear they were helpful!

How is he supposed to tie a safety with that little amount of slack?

Thanks for your kind words & feedback Brother, it means a lot! I wish I had the answer, but I'm glad you and those who have found the info to be beneficial to have discovered what I'm honored to share and discuss.

@@steve.prziborowski absolutely. I am very interested in potentially working with you or any more information from you on a personal level to increase my chances on getting hired. I was complacent at my job the recent two years, I work with some really good people and it’s a really good job. But becoming a fire fighter, I would like to make it a priority number one.

Thank you very much for your kind words and feedback, it means a lot! I'm happy you are getting some value out of the information I'm sharing. Please don't hesitate to reach out if I can ever be of assistance!

@@steve.prziborowski absolutely will thank you

You’re welcome, glad you’ve found them to be helpful! I do mock interviews, thanks for asking. More info on my website www.code3firetraining.com - click the “promotional coaching” link for more details.

@@steve.prziborowski thank you Chief.

Thank you sir for your kind words & feedback, I sincerely appreciate you!

@@steve.prziborowski I appreciate you! I’m currently a reserve firefighter for my hometown but I have been applying to different departments to hopefully get picked up full time so these videos are definitely helping me out a lot

Hopefully the above answer answered your question - if not, let me know!

Hey James, you're welcome, thanks for the feedback and for your time watching them! Here's the easy answer - there is no one-size-fits-all answer and nothing in life is absolute except for death & taxes. Good for you for being 21 years into a FD that you absolutely love - not all can say that. It's never too late; my point for most is that don't wait too long to start preparing to meet the minimum qualifications to apply or to prepare yourself for the position because there is no guarantee you pass the test the first time and some departments only have tests every couple or more years. Meaning if you wait until your last 5 years on the job to try and promote to whatever, there is a chance you could fail the first two attempts or the requirements to apply have drastically changed and now you're scrambling to say get a four year degree done when you're in your 40s or 50s with family and life obligations. There is no magic age and I would be honestly blown away if it ever was a factor - either too young or too old as there is no such thing as too young or too old as I've seen candidates of both do well or not so well on their processes and/or positions once promoted.

For real bro I’m doing cal fire basics rn

@@juansalas1269 nice, I’m with Placer County/Cal Fire up in NEU. Good luck!

@@1Brain4Wheels nice bro! Any hints on what I can study for the exam. I feel like most of what there teaching is all bluff.. my instructor is just running throw it.

Alan, you’re welcome! Thank you very much for your kind words & feedback, I sincerely appreciate it! Glad to hear they have been helpful & inspiring. Which retired BC if you don’t mind me asking, especially since I used to work at Elk Grove back from 1993-1995. Hope your Chief’s interview went well, let me know how it goes & please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can be of further assistance!

@@steve.prziborowski I think it was the best interview I've ever had. The timing of which couldn't have been any better. And the Chiefs made it fun, which was completely unexpected. The BC I'm referring to is Brett Shurr. He did over 20 years with Elk Grove Fire (now known as CSD Fire) and a number of years simultaneously with our department in Wilton, CA.

Good to hear that, thanks for the update! Good luck and hope it works out! Small world as I used to work at Elk Grove from 1993-1995 and I remember him from my days there.

how did your interview go? I have a chiefs interview tomorrow with a department in the bay. Any tips or pointers from what you went through in your interview?

It went extremely well. So much so that I had that gut feeling that I got it and I didn't. I'll bounce back though. Tips for you: Stay confident, remember that this is more give and take than the orals, smile, they don't know your story so it's your job to concisely tell about (get to the meat and potatoes), don't give a bland canned answer for why you want to work for that department because they'll see right through it and mentally put on toward the bottom of the stack, really give a good reason for what you could bring to the community through the fd. And because you commented I can assume you watched this awesome video, so watch it again, and execute your story tomorrow. Good luck.

Awesome, thanks for your kind words, glad you found them to be worthwhile so far!

Wow, thank you very much for your kind words & feedback, I sincerely appreciate it! You're welcome, glad to hear the information I put so much time, passion & energy into is going to good use. Please don't hesitate to reach out if I can ever be of assistance. More importantly, good luck on your upcoming Lt. test & let me know how it goes!

Shut up junior.

@@Chris-hb2ib No.

@@999Kristofer Hush Volunteer Fire Child. No one cares what you think.

the fly was rotated out my friend

@@nathannichols1838 seems like a safety issue. They're overemphasizing what I assume is the danger of losing control of the halyard and having the top section drop into the path of the firefighter... At a cost of setting up a ladder in one position, then moving it laterally via rotation, which causes any number of additional hazards.
