| A good way to learn more about firefighting is to contact your local fire department and see what their standards of training are. Also note that many career firefighters today have started out volunteering, so you may have to volunteer first. You must also be prepared for exams and tests. Most fire departments don't just pick one standard test. They are all over the board as to what type of test they put on. One year it may be a civil service test, the next a fire/emt test. You just never know. Fire Fighter Exam is the best resource that covers all aspects of fire department entrance exams. Good luck with your career firefighter endeavors and never give up on the most rewarding profession. |
