"There is always a place that is hiring, it might not be the your top choice place. Oh well, sometimes a job is a job right? Not that many people live on the cape, so there not going to be many EMS jobs compared to Boston, and commuting to Boston from the cape sucks real bad. The only real trick...

I'm in Mass and I know they still have the EMT-I level going. How much of an advantage does that give you? I'm thinking of going back to school for it just so I can get something to help me get work around here. Anyone know anything about the program? Any advice is great : )

Apathy, by the Subhumans.

I was born and raised in Riverside, CA and moved out to Cape Cod a couple years ago. I actually like it out here better. As far as jobs go, I've seen quite a few posts talking about how people are on a long wait list for jobs out in so cal (unless you want to go out to the middle of nowhere)...

If it was a case of an in person personality assessment, I would say they were right. But an online one? Those things are notoriously flawed. And I'm sorry, you cannot adequately determine what you need to know about an employee based on an online quiz. That's like buying a car right off...

I called two...

Anyone know anything about this company? One of the ones I'm applying for and they are interested in hiring me on. Incidentally, they are expanding their fleet and are looking to take more people on. I got an interview pretty easily. Any information on them would be great, employee turnover...

I just got my EMT-Basic, and I'm contemplating either taking a private ambulance job, or enlisting and becoming a 68w (combat medic). I'm kind of torn between the two options... I want to be a Paramedic, and both would give me the experience I need. I feel the Medic position would give me more...
