Budding firefighters can apply to join the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service in the morning.
We reported last month that around 300 firefighters were being taken on as part of a major recruitment drive.
They want hundreds of new firefighters to join the 3000-plus team already working hard to protect communities across the country.
They say that they are looking for people from all walks of life to put themselves forward – especially as only five per cent of Scotland's firefighters identify as women and less than one per cent belong to an ethnic minority.
