Re: Note. Don't bother. It won't put you over the top if you're borderline, and if you passed, it doesn't matter. They aren't forced to interview you. BTW, the paperwork emails HR sent should've told you you'll get 4 of 6 Registry/Skills scenarios. Don't worry about it. The skills are...

You'll need your valid State EMT card (and bring our CPR/BLS card too; I was once asked). You'll need to have a Medical Examiner's Certificate from someone who is on the registry to do DMV Physicals. Many Urgent Care chains are on that system. It's now different than a few years ago where you...
