About to Finish Medic School with NREMT-P

[firemedic0227]

I am set to finish class November 17th with my NR Skills Exam on the 29th and hopefully Finish the Computer Test in the beginning of December. I have ZERO EMS Background because I went through EMT-B and Paramedic back to back, so if anyone has any word of Advice for me please add it. I want to do the whole Fire/Medic thing for a paid department any way to get a foot in the door with Zero experience so anything will help. Just so you know I am looking for jobs in the Midwest down to Texas, I have all of my Firefighter Certs and then some since I am a Firefighter in the Army Reserve.

honestly volunteering for a local FD or ems agency would be a great way to get experience and your foot in the door, ive been volunteering ems for over a year now for a high call volume area and i love it

The problem with volunteering is that I don't live in an area where there are a lot of Volunteer Departments. The one that I am near doesn't run ALS.
