Hey all --
I'm a long time lurker, first time poster. I tried sorting through everything on here, but just have some basic questions I can't figure out. I graduated paramedic school in May, and got my state card (Ohio) shortly thereafter. I just enrolled in the Ohio Fire Academy, going through their Firefighter I + II class that begins Oct. 11th.
I'm (obviously) looking to make a career out of this. Without sounding too dumb/naive, how's the best way to find a job? The only way I know of to find out if a city is doing a civil service exam is to look at the newspaper every day. Am I missing something? Is there something online I can be checking?
I'm in the Cleveland, OH area, but wouldn't mind relocating. If I'm looking at a pretty big area to get hired in (probably anywhere in OH), how can I find find out when areas are doing exams if I don't get the local newspaper of that area?
Thanks in advance for all the advice I know will be coming! I certainly appreciate it!
If ya'll have tips for fire academy, those would also be appreciated.
