The way you frame your opening statement in an interview is HUGE. That first question—and really that first minute—is your opportunity to show the panel who you are and what you’re bringing to their department. They’re not just listening to your answer. They’re getting a feel for whether you’re someone they can see working alongside for the next 20–30 years. Can you communicate well? Can you follow direction? Will you fit in with the crew? Are you someone they want as part of their tribe? Will you contribute to the culture and help make their department better? 🔥 Your opening statement needs structure, purpose, and confidence. Don’t just wing it and hope the rest of the interview makes up for it. Listen to how we break down the framework and the importance of those first few moments with the panel. If you feel like you’re struggling with your interviews, don’t hesitate to reach out to me or Will. 🔥 For a LIMITED TIME, our interview prep sessions are FREE for our Founding Community members.

Your resume matters more than you think. In this video, I’m going over a recruit’s resume and breaking down why I recommend keeping it to ONE page, along with the structure, design, organization, and small details that can make a big difference. Remember, this piece of paper is a direct reflection of you. Whether you’re handing it to a crew during a station visit or sitting across from a panel during an interview, you want it to look professional, clean, organized, and easy to read. 🎥 Listen to how much detail I go into and WHY these things matter. Also, don’t forget—we have 3 downloadable documents inside the Resume tab that you can use to help build and improve your own resume. Take advantage of the resources inside this community. They’re here to better prepare you and increase your chances of getting hired. And I want to hear from you guys: What do you want to see more of from us? Resume reviews? Mock interviews?

I don’t always listen to motivation every day, but I listened to Andy Frisella this morning and this one was too good not to share. Getting hired and passing probation will be one of the toughest processes you’ll go through. There will be setbacks, failures, long days, and plenty of times when you question yourself. And it’s hard to do it alone. That’s exactly why we built this community. Lean on each other. Share what you’re learning. Ask questions. Help the person next to you get better. Keep showing up. Keep putting in the work. Your opportunity will come, but you have to be ready when it does. Have a great day everyone. 👊 YOU GO, WE GO. 🔥
