This book provides an innovative and straightforward guide for converting your dream into reality. I have spent three years carefully writing this book after being recruited by St. Thomas' Fire Department. Not only have I researched this material—I have lived it!</span><span> </span></p>
<p style="font-size: 9pt; color: #000000; font-family: arial; "><span style="font-size: 16px; ">This book unlike other firefighting books does not include information such as how much money a firefighter makes and what kind of benefits firefighters are entitled to and so on. This book is all about <strong>STRATEGY</strong>, <strong>DECISION MAKING</strong>, <strong>PROBLEM SOLVING</strong>, <strong>PREPARATION</strong>, <strong>KNOWLEDGE</strong>…these are the fundamentals of becoming a firefighter. </span></p>
<p style="font-size: 9pt; color: #000000; font-family: arial; "><span style="font-size: 16px; ">I also discuss trivial topics such as age, understanding minimum requirements, qualifications, hiring process etc. </span></p>

I show you how to come up with the answers you're looking for and put them into action.</span></p>

<strong style="font-size: medium; ">CHAPTER I: Getting Started </strong><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
You need to start somewhere and that is exactly what this chapter does
for you. I know personally the frustration that accompanies the
decision to become a firefighter. The book is structured so that you
the reader can understand in full what is expected of a firefighter
today and how to achieve the credentials to pursue this career
effectively. When pursuing a career in firefighting there is no
sidelines, you have to come dressed to play the game. You can’t waste
time with inaccurate facts, get the right information the first
time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
Get the facts to get the job! </span><br />
<strong style="font-size: medium; "><br />
CHAPTER II: Getting Ahead of Your Competition</strong><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
Becoming eligible to start applying for fire department recruitments
can be both expensive and time consuming. Everyone declares they will
do whatever it takes to become a firefighter, but what if they don’t
know what whatever is. This chapter saves you both time and money
while giving you the confidence to back up all decisions regarding what
course to obtain and the proper order in which to obtain them. The
objective of this chapter is to teach you how to think on your own and
become confident that you’re making the right decisions and taking the
necessary actions. </span><br />
<br />
<strong style="font-size: medium; ">CHAPTER III: Recruitment Process Strategies</strong><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
This chapter is structured to guide you through the entire process of
applying to recruiting fire departments. I explain in depth how to
prepare your fire department application package as well as how to
profile and zero in on the fire departments that interest the recruit
the most.</span><br />
<br />
<strong style="font-size: medium; ">CHAPTER IV: Preparing for Written & Physical Tests</strong><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
Throughout your recruitment process you will be faced with extensive
mental and physical testing. This chapter’s primary focus is to
prepare you for the mental and physical exams that you will endure
during your recruitment. There are numerous tips and strategies
throughout this chapter that took me years to learn. Take advantage of
this information and have the upper hand over your competition. It’s
easier to get the results you want when you have all of the tools to
get you there.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
Training your body to successfully complete the firefighter physical
fitness exam can be a challenge. This chapter deals with physical
nutrition and health for the serious firefighter candidate. You are
provided with the building blocks in which you can continue learning
about fitness while achieving an elevated fitness performance level to
successfully pass your physical fitness exam and to have a healthy
career on a fire department. </span><br />
<br />
<strong style="font-size: medium; ">CHAPTER V: Acing the Interview</strong><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
This chapter focuses on preparing you to be in control of yourself
during an interview and to handle any type of questions with unwavering
accuracy. You must prepare for your interview and this chapter shows
you how as well as guides you through the steps of creating your own
cover letter, résumé and reference letter. A sample résumé is provided
to you in this chapter to use as a reference along with a list of over
45 tips on how to survive an interview and over 150 sample interview
questions. </span><br />
<br />
<strong style="font-size: medium; ">CHAPTER VI: Ensuring Job Success</strong><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; ">
This chapter brings confidence as well an understanding to the road
that lies ahead. Recruits will be given an insight as to what’s
expected of them once recruited by a fire department. </span><br />
<br />
<strong style="font-size: medium; ">APPENDIXES: </strong><br />
