Eligibility List |
GNES will run one firefighter recruitment process each year. We will then rank each candidate and create an eligibility list. When we run a recruit class, we will draw from our eligibility list to fill any vacancies. |
County Recruit Program |
Successful candidates selected from our eligibility list will participate in the L&A County Fire Recruit Program. Recruits must complete approximately 70 hours of training before they can respond to incidents. Our recruit program is based on NFPA 1001 Firefighter Level 1. Training takes place on Wednesday evenings and Saturdays over an 8-10 week period. Much of the theory work is completed via self-directed learning assignments. A review of the theory, followed by practical exercises takes place during the in-class sessions. |
