The Anacortes Fire Department`s full time positions are limited to Firefighter/Paramedics with one year of paramedic experience. All testing and applications for full-time positions are done through www.PublicSafetyTesting.com. We do have openings for Volunteer Firefighters. Anyone may apply who is over 18 with a high school diploma. See our Training Page for current information on testing requirements and how to apply. If accepted, new recruits attend the Skagit County Firefighting Academy. Classes are held Tuesday and Thursday evenings, all day Saturdays, and some Sundays for approximately 10 weeks.
