Some of the above comments sicken me. Our job and duty is to save lives, not to judge and decide who is deserving of our care. Just because someone is addicted to drugs does not make them any less of a human being, and any less worthy of our care.

I'm curious, what defines alarm levels in Westchester? For example, what constitutes an 2nd Alarm? Is it a definitive, county wide protocol yet, or subjectively determined by each department (run cards)?

Thanks - what a nightmare. I'm thinking of just doing the online. Any ideas of a class being offered around here anytime soon?
?

Good advice above. Would also add not to be shy about previous experience. Even if you only did a ride along somewhere include that. Something you may think is not worth mentioning sometimes clues the interviewer to the fact that you are genuinely interested in the field and that it is not just a "job" to you. Would also add prepare some follow up questions. It is very awkward at the end if they ask if you have any questions and you say no. Some good ones I have used are "What are your favorite parts about working here?" or "What is the next step in the process?". It shows you are interested in them (who doesn't like talking about themselves?), that you are prepared and as a bonus you may get some extra info about the job. Good luck!

Below is a pic of our current fleet. New bus is in the far bay with the light bar on top. Bus is very similar to 19 but all lighting is LED, different rear chevrons and features an additional LED light bar on top.
