My Dream Job
Name: Mohammed
Age: 23
Dream job: Firefighter
Skills: You should be: a team-player, reliable, a good communicator, flexible
Workplace: Central Cairo
I always wanted to be a firefighter. When I was a little boy, I played with toy fire engines and
sometimes watched the fire engines driving down the streets with their sirens sounding. I knew
that I wanted to help people and I also knew I wanted a job which wasn‘t in an office. I‘m not
great at sitting at a desk and wanted a job that was outside, exciting and had a lot of variety.
Firefighting can be dangerous and it can be very hard work, but I wouldn‘t do any other job.
You must be able to communicate well with your teammates and also be happy to adapt to
different situations when necessary.
Do you fancy a career as a firefighter? If you want an exciting job helping the community,
come and visit me on Stand 21 at the Jobs Fair.
Date: 23 May
Time: 9.00 – 14.00
If you‘re not interested in firefighting, there are plenty of other jobs to find out about here at the
Jobs Fair. Bring your friends and family along – you never know what career is out there for you!
