Care Amublance OC background check

But isn't it counterintuitive then to allow so much ot if they're trying to cut cost.
 
Based on their contracts they have to keep a certain number of cars available in each city at all times. Also EMT's have a high turnover rate here, so it's something that's unavoidable. OT is necessary, double time is just poor planning.
 
Any advice for someone who has an interview for care in the next couple of days. How to prepare. What they look for in response to interview ?s should you wear full suit or are dress shirt and tie and slacks fine or frowned upon.
 
I got the job in a dress shirt and tie. Use the search bar, you will be able to find a lot of threads on the interview process. If you still can't find the answer PM me, and i'll tell you how the interview is.
 
For those who are currently working at care. How many ot shifts are you able to pick up do they get stingy with the ot at care or do they have plenty of ot to go around. What's they're view on moonlighting with another ambulance company. Is that a big no no or do they allow it.
 
Plenty of OT it is not uncommon for people to work 60+ hours every week if desired. Moonlighting is perfectly fine.
 
Just took my physical today for care. How long before I actually start working? Just excited to get on with care. Hoping to get a night shift maybe a 911 rig to gain experience. What are the chances of me getting on a night car at least are there many night cars open.
 
Night shifts are generally less desired by most people. To get on one permanently isn't to hard. I was on a 911 night shift for about 3 months and it worked very well with my school schedule. I believe there is about 12-14 night shifts private/fire available ranging from start at 6pm to 11pm and end in between 4am-8am.
 
Cool man. I'm looking to get on a night shift because of school. Hopefully something that works weekends also.

Realistically though, during training in the beginning you're going to work during the week, training is 8-6 M-Th.
 
So I got a conditional job offer from care I signed my paperwork and took physical already and the guy said I did very good on back test. Hope that means I passed test. My ? Is has there ever been a case where after going thru all that care revoked its job offer and if so what would be a reason for them to revoke the offer. I'm not saying that happened to me just wondering if there's ever been a case of that

Your job offer would get revoked if you happened to fail the background check. It could also be revoked if you got in trouble during your training shifts or had a bad attitude. As for the back test, if he said you did good then you passed.
