The Shakopee Fire Department employs paid-on-call firefighters who are responsible for responding to emergency calls. Being a paid-on-call firefighter requires attendance at training and drills every Monday evening and responding to a wide range of emergency calls, averaging 5 to 10 hours per week. Firefighters are required to maintain a 35 percent attendance record for emergency calls and drills.
Firefighters must reside within a 10 minute response time of an existing or proposed Shakopee fire station.
Firefighters are paid for fire calls, training and meeting attendance, and are eligible for membership in the Shakopee Fire Department Relief Association. Firefighters must be 18 years of age or older and possess a high school diploma or G.E.D. and a valid driver's license. The selection process includes an oral interview, physical agility testing, a background check and psychological, medical and drug testing.
Applications are accepted during specified periods each year. To determine if applications are currently being accepted for paid-on-call firefighter positions, please visit the Employment Page or call 952-233-9320 or 952-233-3837/TTY.
