Try Cataldo. I think they just got a new contract or something and are trying to staff a new station or two. Just hearsay, though.

I know somebody who just got hired at Brewster as a basic so it would be worth checking them out, too. Both seem to be good companies to work for from what I can gather.

How much experience do you have and is it 911, transfer or both.
Armstrong - metro north of Boston, 911 and transfer work. 911 is a lot of intercept work, medford is a transporting unit. The transfer ALS trucks see 50/50 911 and transfers. BLS do mostly transfers.
Action - have a fair amount of 911 contacts and transfer trucks see a lot of 911. They servicemetro north and north shore.
Cataldo / Atlantic - stronghold of the north shore with a ton of contracts. Lots of 911 work for ALS and BLS. You'll be busy, but you'll see A LOT.
Trinity - Lowell/haveral area. Same as the other companies except Lowell General medics do Tue Lowell ALS calls with Trinity basics and the transfer truck is back up. Dedicated bls 911 trucks.
Westford Fire - non civil service, not hiring medics
Lowell General - hospital based Als intercepts. If you have experience, apply. They cover Lowell, Tewksbury, Chelmsford among other town.
Lawrence General - hospital based ALS for Lawrence Area.
Billerica EMS - third service run by the police department. Not currently hiring.
Boston EMS - everyone starts as a basic. No experience needed, but most of their basics are certified medics. Must live within Boston after 6 months of hire.
Brewster - two 911 contracts and A LOT of transfer work with a large coverage area. So expect to post most of your 24 and do 2 calls.
Lifeline - transfer work. Stay away. All of their upper management has been indicted recently.
