If I were to join the military would it give me an advantage of being hired as a fireman?

Asked by Angel over 6 years ago

Yes, Veterans preference but also maturity and discipline that can be lacking in those that have not served. My opinion is that all graduating high school students serve 2 yrs in the military like Isreali teens do.

Asked by Poopsie over 7 years ago

Dependent on the level of the assault. Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence would disqualify in the US.
