    weight lift test during interview

    I'm pretty sure you and I just did the same interview. As I recall them saying, everything gets put into an overall score which we are later ranked based off of. So if you did really well in the interview, skills, etc, your overall score will hopefully offset any losses from poor performance on...

    AMR around here in Yolo/Placer/Solano makes $14/hr if I'm not mistaken.

    Falck - or the 900-pound gorilla no one is aware of

    I'm talking about something different though. You guys are talking about working 911, going to medic school, etc., right? Going to medic school and sometimes even working 911 for that matter doesn't require one to work as an IFT EMT-B at all, and yet plenty of people do it and complain about it...

    This is something I never understood. Why work BLS IFT for $11/hr if it's really that bad? Why not drive a fork lift at Costco for $19/hr or wash windows at the airport for $25/hr until getting hired by a 911 company or getting your EMT-P?

    Which are the most desirable among BLS, ALS, and CCT? And will I be using the skills I learned in EMT class working for an IFT company (like Falcon or AlphaOne, etc.)?

    Best places to work in the Sacramento Area?

    Got it, thanks for your help. Really I'm sitting pretty at my current job right now and am not strapped for cash, so I'd rather wait to be hired by a decent ambulance than shotgun applications and take the first offer, which is the reason I made this post. Also, what's the difference between a...
