Live and work in Round Rock. Welcome.
Do you work for Austin city fd??
Austin resident here. Not a firefighter yet, but moving in that direction.
Have you done an Academy? EMT?Quote:

So far I like the way the Texas Fire Academy looks, and it also happens to be run by the volunteer department I'm applying to.Quote:

Well good luck, some great departments to work for around here. Shoot me a PM if you want the low down on any place.
Yep, I'm here in northwest Austin, and will probably be joining a local dept in January (submitted completed app in May but there's been a budget freeze.)
I'll be volunteer, since my day job is mechanical engineer.
