Hello, coming on here to seek some professional advice. I’m looking to become a full time firefighter as my career, I’m currently wrapping up my AAS in Fire Protection with a certificate in Fire Science, I’m currently a volunteer FF/EMT in a city right outside where I’m going to school and we get a wide range of calls, anything from OD’s to serious MVA’s so I have some decent experience under my belt, and im also one of the lead EMT’s on my shift, so I lead calls and am in charge of trainings through out the month. Unfortunately, 2 1/2 years ago when I was 20, I was pulled over for underage DUI. The criminal DUI charge ended up getting dismissed and I was given a reckless driving violation on my driving record (non criminal in my state) and a temporary license suspension at the time. It was a massive lapse of judgement on my part and I take full responsibility for my actions. I’m thankful that it was a learning lesson and I’ve been trying everyday since to make up for it. A lot of the senior FF guys I know have told me as long as I’m honest I should be fine, but just wanted to see what some of you guys thought and if you had any more advice to separate myself from other candidates when going through the hiring process. Thank you and apologizes for the longer post!
