Hi everyone, Im new to these forumns and have found them very useful.
I will be completing my emt-b class and certification in May. Im currently located in pheonix arizona, however have talked to many instructors and ems personel who say the job market for fresh emtb's is very slim in the valley. I've realized that pheonix is overly saturated with emts looking for work and I figured I would have a better chance landing a job in northern central arizona.
Is there anyone who has any info on liklihood of obtaining a paid emt position in prescott, sedona, or flagstaff for a unexperienced, newly certified emt-b fresh out of school? Ive checked some other threads on Lifeline in precott, but not much info posted. My heart is set on becoming a paramedic, but I want to work as a basic for at least a year to gain experience and solidify bls. Any help, tips or info would be greatly appreciated.
