Im a nationally registered EMT with an EVOC certificate and have applied at a few places in Orlando and am not having much luck. does anyone know how i can get experience or get my foot in the door? Is it all about knowing the right people or persistance in applying at the same place repeatedly? What should the resume include if you dont have any patient experience? thanks -Brick

Another place to start - Polk County. They cover the Lakeland Florida area. I don't know if they are hiring but Lakeland isn't a very far drive from Orlando, I drove farther for my job. Plus my weekly commute is 1100 miles long.
But I can probably get you more info on who to talk to at Polk County after September 8th.
thanks "4 eyes" , i will check out Polk Cty. i just found out today that in orlando you dont have to be a firefighter to be an EMT for the fire dept. fire fighting is not my goal so i will inquire at fire stations around here first. I also read a lot about volunteering first to get your foot in the door is that usually the case? thanks-Brick

Hi Brice,
I am in S. Florida near Boca Raton. You might want to try AMR in Orlando, Positive Medical Transport in Sebring, or even Lake-Sumter EMS in Lake-Sumter county. Also, Sunstar is popular in the Orlando area as well.
Anymore info just PM me on Twitter @Paramedic_FLA. Good luck!!
David
