The Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service (NIFRS) are currently recruiting for full-time firefighters.
Applications are now being accepted for the roles which are based at stations across Northern Ireland.
Chief Fire & Rescue Officer (Interim), Michael Graham, NIFRS, said : “Being a firefighter is not like any other job - the community calls on us when they are most in need of our help. We respond to challenging incidents including fires; road traffic collisions; water rescues; and chemical incidents; as well as many other types of emergencies.
"We also provide community education; and deliver fire and accident prevention activities, all designed to help keep the community safe.
“Essential recruitment of firefighters must continue, despite Covid-19, to ensure we have sufficient people to allow us to continue to protect our community.
“It is an exciting and rewarding career, but it is very challenging - firefighters have to deal with difficult incidents; are required to work shifts and on public holidays; and could be stationed anywhere in Northern Ireland.
"They have to be physically strong and need to maintain their fitness throughout their career. It is also a robust and lengthy recruitment process, with many stages, and so applicants must be committed to investing a lot of their time to the process.”
