FDNY EMS Candidates

[phoppey]

just heard that they will be offering the promotional test to the fire side every 2 years instead of four. which i guess would be good for us because they might hire more emts to prepare for more people leaving ems.

Who did you hear this from?

My neighbor is an instructor at the fire academy and said ems will have a promo test every 2 years because that's what it states in their current contract. He also said the next promo will most likely be delayed tho

29 1/2 I believe

That's bad for everyone on the EMS side - more people taking a job they have no interest in doing just to get to their dream job of being a firefighter. The worst mistake the department ever made. That being said it should make things somewhat easier for people trying to get in to EMS. There is pretty high turnover without that though.

Agree you can tell in there pateint care that they have no interest in the job,which sucks for us real emt's that want this job and they get pick ahead of one of us.

Off topic question, is anyone else concerned about the starting salary for FD/EMS? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not making millions now but it would be a pay cut starting out. Anyone feel the same?
