How hard this is to fill
This is the same score as the free check.
For one manager
Say the shift pattern, the call volume, and the protocols the crew works under. Ask how long the person has worked as the lead medic on a truck.
License and training
Every state licenses or certifies paramedics. Most use the National Registry paramedic exam as part of the path. Confirm your state EMS office's rules before you hire or start.
