So in other words I did met the qualifications for the vacancy but I quess there were more qualified applicants. Understandably so, I'm very new to the field. Just got my EMT B cert. (2/14) and I am currently in a Paramedic Program in which I complete (5/15). But I think my BA in Communications worked in my favor. On the upside I already picked up a job @ Transcare. Pretty awesome for someone who just took his state exam (2/20/14). Maybe another year or two more of experience is needed...I'm in no rush, I have much to learn about the field! And as we know the more experience out in the field the better!
