“Name, always had a desire to help people but it wasn’t until I witnessed the interaction between my brother and FF’s during a psychotic episode that really drew me to public service in 2022. To get myself on this path, I began studying for A&P and EMT school, but due to xyz I had to move right before class started, I then began volunteering at XYZ and have obtained XYZ certifications.”

I have done literally thousands of interviews in my career and I would say just the opposite of what you are saying. My questions about prepping for the FD will come later. I tell people to answer that question like this… I want to hear about your past, present and future goals. This includes your hobbies, married? Kids? Etc. and yeas

I struggle with this one cause I start when I went to college and how it led to me wanting to go to the fire service. In which a lot are receptive but after I’m like did I really tell them anything personally about me or did I tell them my life story

“Tell me a little about yourself, son.”
“Well, Chief, I have a background in boxing and wrestling. And I've seen this fire going around destroying property for far too damn long. Someone's gotta teach this bastard a lesson and beat the crap outta him! and when I see that bastard fire, I'm gonna kick his ass, personally!"

This one is tough since it was something that happened in my childhood to my mom that got me into this career and also just growing up foster care really shaped me into the provider I am now

why not just ask those questions instead since that's what you wanna hear, over overcomplicated for no reason.

Not every fire department asks questions this easy! My interview way way more difficult with multi question in one question. It’s simple have a diverse life background and explain your life experience and tie it into the FD
