Description: "Regardless whether the student is a recent high school graduate, someone changing careers, or a volunteer firefighter looking to join the career fire service, Firefighter Exam and Interview Prep has received ample praise. They like its very clear, step-by-step approach, and they say it is the best prep book available. It explains the concepts that are tested in each section of the written exam simply and thoroughly, and it gives strategies that really work and that have been proven to raise test scores. It covers everything, from what a rookie will experience in the career fire service to preparing for all parts of the written examination, from how to create an effective resume to how to ace the interview, and from how to complete the application to understanding the psychological test. Diagnostic tests lets the reader identify areas of strength and weakness. Each section contains practice problems to reinforce the lessons, and practice tests let readers monitor how their scores improve. This book even contains a large remedial math section. Firefighter Exam and Interview Prep was written with how students learn in mind, and it even uses brain science to help candidates earn the highest possible scores."--
