SeniorCare EMS Interview Questions
& Process

First, you sign up and they'll give you a date for the interview and physical exam. Make sure to show up in gym gear, or they'll make you change. The process includes: 1. Taking an exam on EMT school material. 2. A physical exam (dragging, lifting). 3. A drug test. 4. Three scenario-based questions, like 'what would you do if you suspect a back injury and the patient is sitting?'. 5. An interview. If you get hired, there are 6. Four days of boring orientation (8am to 6pm, varies) plus an EVOC course on the weekend. 7. Finally, a ride-along with Field Training Officers.

First, I filled out an application online. About two months later, I heard back to come in for interviews. Before the actual interview, there was a 50-question multiple-choice test, which wasn't too difficult. Then came a physical test involving using a stretcher, a stair chair, performing CPR, and moving mannequins. After passing that, there was a drug test. Following that, I had a quick verbal test where I had to respond to certain scenarios. Finally, after a long day of hard work, the interview itself happened. The interviewer asked a bunch of questions about where and when I'd like to work and questions to gauge my ability to think on my feet, like asking for an example of dealing with stress. After about two weeks of waiting, I got the acceptance letter. Then, there's a mandatory orientation week, Monday to Friday, 9-5, which is paid.

First you apply online. Then you take a written test on NYC emt protocols, which is pretty easy. After that, there's a physical test. It involves lifting a stretcher, doing CPR, lifting a 70lb bar, dragging a 150lb mannequin 25ft, and setting up an oxygen tank. Then you do a drug test. After that, you meet someone who will ask you three questions about a medical emergency, and you have to answer them right. The next step is an interview with a manager. Steps 2-4 all happen on the same day. If you pass those, you do this interview. Then you get an acceptance email in about 2-3 days.

You apply online and then get invited to an interview date. Before accepting, you must commit to a week of orientation. Once you go in, you'll fill out paperwork and bring your Social Security card, driver's license, Medic Card, or EMT-B certification if you have it. The process includes a Physical Agility Test (PAT), drug screening, a written exam, uniform fitting, and an interview. You'll hear back later that day or within a few days; I got my response a couple hours after leaving.
