Becoming
a firefighter is a dream career for many men and women. 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!
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 STRATEGY, DECISION MAKING, PROBLEM SOLVING, PREPARATION, KNOWLEDGE…these are the fundamentals of becoming a firefighter.
I also discuss trivial topics such as age, understanding minimum requirements, qualifications, hiring process etc.
Rather
than focusing on topics that every other firefighting book on market
covers I decided to focus on revealing how you should approach your
recruitment process, how you can answer tough questions such as what
fire school/program you should attend, what courses you should be
taking, how to fill out an application and create the ideal cover
letter and resume, how to maintain momentum after attending fire school
or how to visit fire halls and network yourself. I show you how to
come up with the answers you're looking for and put them into action.
I have
helped thousands of recruits find there way and I look forward to being
apart of your recruitment process and doing the same for you.
