Is this your first firefighter interview? Have you had an interview go wrong, or left thinking you killed it but never moved forward?
Are you afraid of getting to your interview and not knowing how to answer a question, having them come out wrong or not knowing if the answer is too long, too short or if you're even answering it correctly?
You're not alone...
It's been proven that without preparation, and the proper tools - time and time again, great candidates fail to get past the interview.
In fact, the more we care about something, the more anxious we can get about it, the more nervous we become about saying the wrong thing, or doing the wrong thing, and we can begin to overthink or shut down completely.
Thankfully, with our Firefighter Interview Preparation Service, we provide an easy-to-follow 5-step system that allows you to craft beautiful and captivating stories about your life and how they relate to the fire service.
We make sure you leave with the confidence and the knowledge on how to approach your next interview.
