FIREFIGHTERANCHORAGE
The Anchorage Fire Department covers the immediate 100 square miles of the Anchorage bowl; EMS coverage extends throughout the 1,980 square miles of the entire Municipality.
Service within the main bowl area offers a variety of challenges. Rescue and fire response to off-road terrain that requires 4-wheel drive and, occasionally, helicopters, occurs only short distances from major highways and the high-rise, downtown urban area. The Port of Anchorage, Anchorage International Airport, Merrill Field (the world's busiest small plane airport) and the hub of the Alaska Railroad pose potential industrial and transportation hazards. Suburban and rural areas add to the mix and a young populace spread over a wide socioeconomic range contributes to a full spectrum of emergency response activity.
The Anchorage Fire Department serves a diverse need with a fully blended fire and rescue service.
AFD recruits for the position of Firefighter/Paramedic & Firefighter/EMT. Recruitment is conducted every two years, generating a list of candidates from which job openings during that time are filled. Applications cannot be accepted outside the recruitment period.
