Welcome to NEP "On Location." Here, we hit the road and have conversations with some of the brightest minds from the worlds of public safety, organized labor, communications, politics, and more.

 

In this episode, Mark Treglio is on location at Firehouse Expo in Columbus, Ohio, and has a conversation with Irvin Smith, a veteran Fire Lieutenant with Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service in Maryland, and a former star football player at the University of Maryland and in the Canadian Football League. Lt. Smith talks with Mark about a challenge facing nearly all public safety agencies these days – recruitment and retention – and goes into depth about what it’s like to work for Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service and how to go about trying to get on the job there.
