The interviewer wants to see what experience you have and if you are qualified for the job. Most inspectors are experienced in testing fire safety equipment, either from working in the fire service prior to becoming an inspector or through the inspector certification. Describe your experience and give examples of what equipment you have tested.

"Yes, I am experienced in testing fire safety equipment. As a firefighter, we would do business inspections and inspect their extinguishers, and test their commercial hoods, sprinkler systems, and smoke detectors. As an inspector, I do the same, but on a more advanced level. With both jobs combined, I have 25 years of experience testing fire safety equipment."
