    Who's Hiring In New York????

    If you do not have your driver's license, it is imperative you get it ASAP. I don't know of any company in the city that would hire you without it. Not too mention, if you ever plan to come to FDNY, it's a must.

    Got mine in East Harlem location: 345 E 102 St. At the time the fee was only $25, but I do remember hearing something about the fee going up. Perhaps you can also give them a call.

    It's not a typical job interview in which they throw the "why do you want to work for our company?" type questions. You'll sit with the investigator, and they may ask you questions pertaining to your documentation. Could be for clarity, so it's not anything you wouldn't know about yourself. My...

    If you're in any sort of shape, you'll be fine. I never did the StairMaster with weights prior, and it was over before I knew it. Just don't think about it while you're stepping.

    Just a little FYI for those awaiting upcoming classes: I'm in the current class and in talking to a couple of the others, the highest number I've heard they reached for this class is in the 580s. Also, the instructor stated that they are going to be doing a class in April. I'll update if I hear...

    Your best bet is to take public transportation, if possible. The parking downtown can get pretty hectic during the week. If you have to drive, I suggest downloading this app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bestparking-find-best-daily/id383076098?mt=8 Not sure if you're an iPhone user, but...

    Pulse ox & aeds, shouldnt bls units have?

    Doesn't matter if it is not in your protocols. While pulse ox may be easy to use (and let's be honest, a monkey could figure out to put it on a finger), if you go outside of your regions scope of practice, you're essentially breaking the law. With that said, I even feel the same about a...

    Initially I was, but in talking to a couple people from work, they were on the same level with you. So between originally posting this and your response, I already put the order in for a 5.11

    Looking to get a job shirt with custom embroidery. I'll go to any place within the city sans Staten Island. Went around Manhattan today and it was a bust. Any recommendations as far as Queens goes? I know the Jamaica Hospital guys have a local place.
