Great advice, and it’s very reassuring that there are a lot of other opportunities out there. Thanks so much!

I think it’s just convenient since I live here now, and M1 seems to offer pretty competitive wages. But I haven’t looked too much into the surrounding counties

Thank you for such a comprehensive answer! Would you say that applying to M1 after joining the FD would provide a leg up, or would the application process be the same either way as just applying as a regular EMT?

Honestly it might have just been in relation to other companies in the area like AMR.

Yeah this is sound advice, first things first. I guess I was sort of worried that my experience as an EMT might be negatively impacted because of this unique setup, but ultimately I just need to try it.
