All candidates undergo a highly selective application process, ensuring that Los Santos County citizens receive quality care from professionals.

Once an applicant has submitted their application, a Fire Department's Human Resources team member will contact them within 7 days.

If a candidate is selected to continue, they will schedule an interview with our staff to ensure the candidate is the right fit for the department.
