I had an interview with Rural Metro in Milpitas last week on Thursday. Said they would call in 1-2 weeks. I actually got called yesterday (5 days after the interview) and she said they were pleased to offer me the job, and that she would email me with the official offer for me to look over and that I should get back to her today. She said I got an offer for the IFT division. What she actually emailed me was an "Application request" which I completed and I haven't heard anything back yet.

Am I hired or what? Anyone else have a similiar experience? If I did in fact get the job, I'm just wondering what's in store as far as orientation, scheduling, etc.

hmm that's weird. Did you apply within the last few weeks? I went to the interview last week expecting to do skills testing, written tests, etc. and all we got were the generic interview questions. I guess it depends how many people they need to hire and how many apply. I just got my EMT certs last month and have no experience so I don't know why they would hire me over someone else. Do you have all ur certs, amb. driver cert., etc.?

yea jan 27 and its 'under review' ive been calling their HR too, but that's just a dead end (voicemail)

i passed your question along just waiting on an answer btw

from what i was told a lot of people are moving from their ift to 911 due to (potential) lay offs so im sure you are good to go just some paperwork confusion but ill let you know what she says

That's just a rumor, and it's false.

Turns out I was wrong, but I don't think they hired a lot of guys from IFT.

I interviewed for 911 and was not selected, but then I was sent the same application email. They are having some issues.

Yeah they just canned a bunch of people in RM Bay Area due to the CPR card fraud that has hit RM and even into the Santa Clara EMS agency itself.

i think they hire in 'waves' my friend applied a couple weeks before me (about 3 weeks ago now) and got offered a position (dont think he accepted it) and i applied, again, and havent heard anything yet.

when i first applied it took about a month, maybe 2 to hear anything back.

you will hopefully hear something soon.

Thanks for your reply... But after a month of waiting, I decided to withdraw my app and resubmit it. I did that yesterday and got a call today. Unfortunately, I was at work so I didn't have a chance to pick up. If you still haven't received a response, maybe you could try doing that :)
