Finally scored a formal panel interview with the county I live in. What can I expect?

26 and my bad. Try not to be so friendly next time.

Scheduled my first interview as a Paramedic with Hillsborough County Fire Rescue in Tampa, FL. Advice? What should I wear? Is the first interview based more on a personal level? Anything helps. I'm not quite sure what im walking into. I graduated 4 months ago, also received my AA Thanks...

Graduated 4 months ago and have yet to find a job. I'm pretty rusty, what are some study tips? Is there maybe a refresher course or online thing? Thanks for the help!

If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it! I live in Tampa, but willing to work anywhere from here down south to Naples. I'm a new medic with no experience, i have my my AA and AS degrees. (Did all my schooling/training in Lee County, Fort Myers) Advice? Suggestions? Companies...

I have looked into private companies in my area. I've applied to all I can. Some twice. I'll probably end up at SunStar.

That's a little crazy. I'm not moving halfway across the country to make 13/hr when I can make that as an ER Tech down here. Im pretty sure OK is one of the top ten states that pay the least. I understand it's experience and at this point any will help, but what are some ways I can put myself...

I seem to be having a problem. I am a recent paramedic graduate and am certified in the state of FL. I also have my AA and AS, yet no one wants to hire this newbie. What am I doing wrong? Ive been debating fire school or going back to nursing school. Im sinking.

Thanks for the tip. I just recently re-applied to Sun Star because I couldnt make my interview a few months back. Im in Tampa. Just recently applied to Hillsborough County.

Hello! My name is Lauren. I recently became an EMT-P in the state of Florida. Im having trouble getting my foot in the door and finding a good job. I also have my AA and AS, but I havnt had any such luck in the past 4 months. Thought maybe joining a forum would help keep me in touch with the EMS...
