Seven fire agencies in South King County formed Wa Fire Careers in an effort to streamline and simplify the process of becoming a firefighter, making it more affordable, accessible and inclusive for all.<\/p>\n

Entry Level Firefighter registration is now open online for WAFireCareers partner agencies – Enumclaw Fire Department, King County Fire District #20, Puget Sound Fire, Renton Regional Fire Authority, South King Fire & Rescue, Tukwila Fire Department and Valley Regional Fire Authority.<\/p>\n

The departments announced the joint entry level firefighting recruitment and hiring process in a Feb. 25 media release.<\/p>\n

“Being a firefighter is a highly rewarding profession, with the opportunity to help community members in times of emergencies,” according to the release. “It is also a physically and emotionally challenging profession, with the call to put others before yourself.”<\/p>\n

Anyone that might be interested in a career in the fire service and would like to learn more about the recruit academy, fitness requirements and to view frequently asked questions, should visit wafirecareers.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To register and start the hiring process, visit National Testing Network, select Firefighter in the “Find Jobs” drop-down menu, select “Washington,” and then select WAFireCareers partner agencies. This will register you automatically for the seven partner fire departments for the price of a single test.<\/p>\n
