Depends which department you work for. Every department has their own requirements. Generally they are something like: -Be an EMT
-Be 18 years of age
-Have a good work ethic and be able to follow directions under pressure.
Some departments ask for more: -Go to a Fire Academy through a community college
-Be a paramedic
-Have an A.A. degree in Fire Science/Tech. If you are interested, go to your local fire station and knock on the door. I'm sure they wouldn't mind giving you a couple hints.

This varies from state to state, Volunteer stations and paid stations, and also can vary by Rank/Job in the Department.
It is not easy and will require training, which you need to attend every chance you can. You will at least need MOD1 (or the Basic, name of this class changes from time to time). The MOD1/Basic course will take 4+ months in most places. Notice that you will need more than just firefighting courses, you will need Medical/First aid/First Responder training (all different courses) All depending on where you are and if you are Volunteer/Paid. You at the very least need First Aid training along with your courses.
Be safe and remember, "Train like your life depends on it, Because IT DOES"
The need for fire fighting knowledge and equipment arose as a consequence of the advancement of civilization. The concentration of people in areas where they built structures in which to live and work gave rise to accidents and fires. These fires destroyed things, and injured or killed people. There was a social need to have a way of attacking a blaze and extinguishing it to both protect people and limit damage. It's a "no brainer" now, but back then, back in those days before any organized fire fighting units were formed, it was a challenge. And it finally caught the attention of community leaders who applied some mind power to methods and methodology that could be employed to put out fires that occurred in their neighborhoods.
