I'm 23 years old and have 2 DUI's both in 2008 in CA two months apart. I don't have a drinking problem and actually quit drinking after some of the numerous programs I was required to take, I was 20 at the time and was drinking to cope with my brother's diagnosis/treatment of Brain Cancer. Since then I have gotten my life straight and I finally have the funds to pursue a career in Fire/Paramedic/EMT. I am registered in my EMTB program starting in Jan and I guess I would like any feedback on what I can expect for job placement.
I've spent numerous days of researching and calling my county, the Nat. Registry and even my EMT instructors and from what I understand I will have no problem being certified/licensed for my EMT and Paramedic and I even have the opportunity to get my Ambulance Certificate through DMV, but placement would be an issue because of insurance reasons.
Has anyone had any experience personal or not that may help me out.
Thanks!
