We offer a competitive Intern Program that gives individuals the chance to work for a well respected department that opens the door to many different opportunities in the Fire Service. Each fire season, multiple Intern Firefighters are hired with CAL FIRE  as well as other departments which creates a regular need to fill positions on shifts. Intern Firefighters work a 48/96 schedule assigned to one of three shifts and are paid a monthly stipend. Daily training and the opportunity to run a number of different call types allows for a diverse experience for each of our Intern Firefighters.
