Do you feel like your life is missing something? Ever wonder if you are meant for more than your average 9 to 5 job? If this sounds familiar, the Golden Valley Fire Department (GVFD) might be able to offer what it is you’re missing.
Paid on-call firefighters respond to calls for service, including but not limited to fires, rescues, and medicals. Firefighters also act as community stewards, participating in fire prevention/educational activities, providing safety programs for commercial/industrial employees, and more.
Those interested in a fire service career are encouraged to attend an upcoming recruitment event.
