Your paramedic was my final paramedic intern. A sharp kid that one is. Easiest intern hands down in the 5 years I'd trained. You lucked out, truly.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I saw a Facebook post saying Hall now had a $5,000 signing bonus and up to a $2,500 relocation bonus. Can anyone from the Kern County cult verify this? If it is true, it might be enough to convince some of our EMS brothers and sisters stuck in the LA/OC systems to try Central California out. It is plenty of money for a down payment on a nice apartment in Bakersfield with enough left over to furnish it nicely.

It's true, but only for paramedics. We are still hiring EMTs and RNs but without incentive.
Also the signing bonus is supposedly only valid if you're referred, so hook up with a culter

Yup, true. It was discussed this morning at our monthly (CCT) staff meeting by our management.

Not gonna lie I saw the ad(?) on Facebook (I don't follow Hall so I assume it was an ad) and seriously put some forethought into it when I'm done with medic school. I'm no stranger to the central valley and norther Kern Co, but as soon as I get my p-card in hand I'm applying to out of state fire departments. I'm sure that the Kern Co Cult wouldn't want to hire me only to have me work a couple months and split to a fire gig out of state. I'll pass it along to my medic class and some of my buddies in the class ahead of me.

I've been seeing the ads on the book of faces also. It has been very very tempting but there is no way I could afford the drive on 12 hour shifts and I would rather not have to rent at the moment.

I need a garage to put some of my stuff in. Maybe once I am done with my associates I will look into it more seriously since the girlfriend will be able to either sell or rent out her place.

Houston and East Texas are literally greener than Northern CA. We don't actually get to desert until we're west of the Hill Country, 450 miles west of me. North Texas is basically Central CA. And the piney Woods are stupidly big

Except you're missing a big 14,505 foot mountain that is Mount Whitney.
