How can I become a Rural Firefighter in New Zealand?

Rural Firefighters as in the Firefighters who fight forest fires and brush fires in the wilderness, not structure firefighters who fight fires in buildings in the city. Where can I apply to be a rural firefighter and when does the hiring start?

It looks like rural fire fighting is organised seperately by each district council so I guess you’d have to apply to the specific one in whatever area you’re interested in. If you’re looking for a career remember that most firefighters in New Zealand, even ones in the urban areas, are volunteers and so don’t get paid.
