Who we are

About our team of firefighters

Each of our men is extensively trained in firefighting and extinguishing the hazardous fires that threaten property and civilian or natural populations. Their goal is to rescue people from dangerous situations and locations, collapsed or burning buildings or crashed vehicles.

They will put their life in danger without thinking twice if need be, while at the same time regard personal safety of utmost importance. Our priority is for all of our firefighters to return home safety to their families every night without injury or harm.

Opportunities

Are you fit for the fire department?

Too many future firefighters think it takes the best resume to get hired. They feel they have to possess all of the education, training, certificates, and experience to get the job. Fire departments are hiring the best for their department.

Qualified applicants will typically be given a series of evaluations and testing. In some jurisdictions, having an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) license is a requirement. Potential applicants must attend and complete the fire academy as well.

Formal education should be considered in order for advanced careers in this field. Ongoing education is an important part of the job. It's never too late to think about a career as a fire fighter. It just takes a bit of time and endurance to withstand the heat.
