SA Firefighter

Expect 4 information sessions for new recruitment to be coming up at the end of June.

G'day everyone, things are a bit quiet on here these days. How about the administers start a SA Firefighter closed facebook group to enable all members of SA emergency services to be able to discuss better ways of doing service and then using this site still to back up discussion.

Applications for Firefighter positions will be accepted from 9.00 am Australian Central Daylight Time (ACDT) Saturday 15 November 2014.

Applications close at 5.00 pm ACDT Friday 28 November 2014.

Applications may only be submitted online via the links provided during the Recruitment period.

Late applications will not be accepted.

Potential applicants are advised that the first stage of the assessment program (PAT 1 - Shuttle Run) will not commence until late January 2015. This is however, subject to change without notice.

Care has been taken to ensure that this website provides you with all the information you will require.  We therefore ask that you please ensure that you have read all the information provided.

Telephone inquiries will be referred back to this website where necessary.           

Recently I came across the Holmatro Vehicle Extrication Techniques guide available for iPad on the App Store which appears easy to use.  Plus Holmatro have a rescue game also for download which is good to have a bit of a play around on.

So our cadets received the new proper yellows (or should I say oranges hehe) a couple months ago that CFS designed and asked for (Not that press stud carp that opens itself up while on the fire ground and massive neck flaps that exposes your neck to easily get burnt) but of course cadets don't go on fire grounds so we haven't been able to put it to the test.

Has anyone received the brand new stuff and is it living up to what we asked for? e.g. fits crew leader folders in jacket pockets easy? Haven't damaged the centre jacket zip yet as it does appear to be smaller then what was on the previous gear? What are your thoughts?

Hi everyone,

For those that are interested if you search fire fighter into seek.com.au their a couple of firefighting jobs going at the moment.
