Hi everyone.
This is the first time I posted in this forum, and what an informative and useful forum this is! I am a newly graduated emt-b in bay area, California. I have read through many threads and realized how competitive it is to get a job in the area; fortunately I was invited to an interview for pro-transport fresh out of training.
Now, I am ready to pitch myself the best I can; no other companies are hiring right now and this might be my only chance to get a job close to home. I am worried, however, about a speeding ticket I got in 09/2010. It hasn't been erased and is 1 point on my record. Will this be a big difference maker in the hiring process? Can someone who has been on the hiring board offer me their opinion? Any advice or insider tip regarding the whole interview thing is greatly appreciated also .
I have tried searching for a post before posting, sorry if this has been discussed before.
