Just wanted to see if I could get some background as far as applying to Hall Ambulance over in Kern County. Currently an EMT over here in LA/OC and just wanted to know some personal experiences. From what I hear, they have a very loyal following/employees and that caught my attention more than anything. Thanks in advanced!

Let's just say there's a reason why we refer to there being a "Kern Co Cult" on these forums....should give you a sense of how loyal EMTs and Medics are to Hall.....now contrast that to LA/OC companies....theres tons of us on here..bit a distinct lack of anything resembling such fierce loyalty lol....browse any of the threads talking about LA/OC companies and you'll find most of them inevitably vet filled with calls to head off to the greener pastures of Kern, Ventura, SB Co, Riverside etc....but even thise pale in comparison to the Kern Co Cult...

I've done some looking into Hall, and even seen them around once or twice down here in LA. Yes that's exactly what I mean lol Ive spoken with other emt's on how their company is great and has good equipment. Hell even McCormick upped their game with their sweet new rigs(even if they still pay the minimum). Seems to me that Hall is offering that "full package deal", (911 coverage, decent pay, benefits, medic school sponsorship). A 2 hours drive, or even a relocation might be worth it long term. I suppose my questions are more geared towards things such as rumors that they don't take kindly to aspiring FF or even expect their field employees to commit long term to the company.

Fierce loyalty isn't something that's synonymous with ems. Which is why I ask, what about Hall makes their emt's/medics love working for them? I mean damn, I want in on this cult!! lol grab me an orange patch and shave my head!

Gobble gooble one of.....ahhhh!!

They look for employees that are looking to make ems a career. Hall IS ems in kern county. They are not looking for people that are just doing it to get by looking for a fire job.

Definitely, as I'm sure most companies do. From what I've heard on these threads, they have "plenty of emt's at the moment". I do see they are taking applications for both emt and medic positions though. Do you work at Hall yourself?

I know a few that do. Put your app in. If your worried about commute, theirs a few people I know that have rooms for rent for next to nothing. I did 10 years in LA county. PM if you would like. Good luck!
