Reputations of Colorado Departments
Hello everyone. Long story short, I'm trying to move back to CO and land a job as a firefighter. I'm currently building a spreadsheet with various data about the department and comparing it to where I'm at now (HTX) to see if it makes sense based on my priorities.
I have FF1&2, hazmat awareness, ops, and tech (may have lapsed), paramedic, PALS, ACLS.
What are the general reputations of departments, both in the mountains and on the plains?
Any suggestions on departments to check out?
Coming from bigger city experience (ATL and HTX) to a smaller department, what should I know that I may not understand based on my background?
Thanks in advance and stay frosty!
