,Question 1
You are a rookie firefighter and you know that departmental rules state that it is inappropriate for you to watch
television during your probation period. The crew has invited you in to watch a movie. Firefighter 1: "Come on in! Don't
worry about it! It's a great movie - it's a classic!" Firefighter 2: "The captain is taking a nap anyway and he won't know
anything!" Firefighter 1: "Come on - we hardly even know you. Here's a perfect opportunity for us to get to know you
better! If you aren't going to watch a movie what are you going to do?" As the rookie firefighter, how would you
respond in this situation?
Correct Answer
Thank the guys for the invite. Tell them that you appreciate it but you are still on probation and can't watch any
television during your probation period. Tell them that you are new to this job and want to learn as much as possible.
Rationale:
The correct response acknowledges departmental rules and demonstrates a commitment to learning, as it's crucial for the rookie
firefighter to establish a professional reputation and follow the rules from the start to build trust with their crew. By expressing
appreciation for the invitation and explaining their probationary restriction, the rookie firefighter shows a willingness to learn and adapt
while also respecting the department's guidelines.
Question 2
A new fire cadet is doing their required duties around the firehouse, cleaning the kitchen, when an alarm comes in. The
fire cadet has earphones in and apparently does not hear the alarm. The officer taps them on the shoulder and says,
"Let's go - we have an alarm to respond to!" How would you respond to the officer in this situation?
Correct Answer
Apologize for having earphones in and not paying better attention. Tell the officer it won't happen again.
Rationale:
This response acknowledges the cadet's mistake, takes responsibility for not being attentive, and shows a commitment to improving by
promising it won't happen again. By apologizing and making a conscious effort to correct their behavior, the cadet demonstrates
accountability, a crucial trait in a firefighter, and a willingness to learn from their mistake.
Question 3
You are a rookie firefighter with 2 months on the job. Each day you come to work, the engine and ladder companies
have different assignments that need to be completed. There is a corresponding checklist made out by your officer to
review the day's duties. You are cleaning the bathrooms when one of the senior firefighters comes up to you and says,
"Don't worry about the bathroom. This area was cleaned the day before. I already went through it and everything
looks good. Come help me - let's clean out the equipment room." As the rookie firefighter, how would you respond in
this situation?
Correct Answer
Inform the senior firefighter that it is your responsibility to clean out the bathroom every day. Once you complete that
job you will come and help him with the equipment room.
Rationale:
The correct response is a way of politely asserting the rookie firefighter's responsibility and task, while also showing respect for the
senior firefighter's suggestion. By explaining that it's their duty to clean the bathroom every day, the rookie firefighter is establishing a
clear understanding of their role and priorities, rather than simply accepting a task change without verifying the correct sequence of
duties.

, Question 4
An engine and a ladder are responding to a car fire in an abandoned parking lot. The engine is the first arriving unit on
the scene. The fire cadet pulls off a line from the rear of the engine to the car fire. This is his first fire; caught up in the
emotions, he leaves his protective goggles on the truck. The officer in charge of the engine does not have his
protective goggles on either. He is directing the cadet to get as close as possible to the car fire to extinguish the fire.
The car is rapidly becoming well involved in fire. The officer is firm in his direction to make sure they extinguish the fire
as quickly as possible. If you are the fire cadet on the scene that has forgotten his protective goggles, what would your
response be?
Correct Answer
Go directly to the car fire and extinguish it.
Rationale:
The correct response is to go directly to the car fire and extinguish it because the officer's priority is to extinguish the fire as quickly as
possible, and the cadet's lack of protective goggles is not an overriding safety concern given the rapidly spreading fire and the officer's
firm direction.
The officer's authority and the emergency nature of the situation take precedence over standard safety protocols, as the consequences
of not extinguishing the fire quickly (such as it spreading to other vehicles or nearby structures) outweigh the risk of injury from not
wearing protective goggles.
Question 5
Three firefighters are standing on the apparatus floor around 3:00 pm; one is a senior firefighter with 22 years of
service and the other two are fire cadets. The senior firefighter says, "Well, it's about time to take this fatigue uniform
shirt, hat and ID badge off." One of the cadets states that it is a policy that you can't change out of your fatigue
uniform shirt and hat and take off your ID badge until 5:00 pm. The senior firefighter states, "That's ridiculous. They
are always making up useless policies; we don't have to listen to that." He tells the fire cadets to take off their fatigue
uniform shirts, hats and ID badges and walks away. The two fire cadets are discussing the matter and one says,
"Maybe he's right. This is a terrible policy. I've never seen the policy enforced or seen anyone come in the station after
3:00 pm, so what does it matter?" He starts taking off his fatigue uniform shirt, hat and ID ba
Correct Answer
State that the policy is there for a reason and you need to follow it.
Rationale:
The policy is in place to maintain a level of uniformity and professionalism, even during non-work hours, to uphold the image and
standards of the fire department. By following the policy, the firefighters demonstrate respect for the rules and procedures that ensure
a safe and cohesive work environment, even when no one is actively supervising them.
