 Hi, my name is Clint Mark. Before joining the CFA, I was self-employed as the landscaper. My hobbies include running, mountain biking, a bit of bushwalking and spending time with my family. Before joining the CFA, I didn't know too much about the organisation. Part of the application required us to do a fair bit of research into the organisation. Various incidents they're involved with and other agencies they work with etc. The most rewarding thing about being at Recruit Training is just seeing so many people come from different backgrounds and work efficiently as part of a team and just developing a heap of new skills. I think the toughest part about being a firefighter for me will be the shift work just the change of routine that that will mean for our family and also just attending traumatic situations and just being confronted with that. I became a firefighter just to be more involved with community work as part of a close-knit team and I love a challenge and being able to work at a high intensity which I really enjoy.
