  1. EMS for FDNY or Other?

    rdbaerd replied to a topic in Opportunities

    I am in the same boat as you. I received my EMT card in January, and right away called FDNY. You will have to wait about 6-8 months before they call you or I recommend calling them. Try and get some paid experience or volunteer. The civil service exam helps you out because with that you gain the status of a civil servant. From what I am told "its harder for them to get rid of you". There should be another civil service test coming up for EMT, I highly recommend it. Check out private ems companies like Transcare, American Response, and Empress.
