Ontario EMS Service Hirings/Recruitments

[Fire_Medic09]

Hey all

I thought I would make this thread since there really is nothing on this site regarding different EMS services hiring, and I know how difficult the job search for medics can get. So here it is, a place to post any hirings you may hear of, and possibly find out about any current hirings.

As of right now I know of no openings, Waterloo EMS, Thames EMS (London), and Perth County EMS have all just closed within the last month or so.

Please post any possible openings here if you find them!

I thought I would put up a little something the James Bay Ambulance Service is looking regularly for medics. We are based out of Moosonee ON and have 4 bases in different communities up the coast with plans for 2 more that I know of. In my own estimation we will need to hire 8 FT and 10 pt in the forseeable future. I came up 3 years ago, and while I was part time I was easily getting 5-7 shifts a 2 week period and more often than not I was working full time hours. This is remote living so there are bonuses and incentives to stay. At any rate if you have any questions pm me and I'll help if I can if I can't I'll point you the right direction.

Hiring part-time medics

Thanks for posting, good to see this thread being somewhat used!

Be aware too that some services are inconsistent on posting hirings and may only contact resumes they already have on file.

For example, in the last hire done by Northumberland EMS, the service did not to my knowledge post. As they keep resumes on file for 6 months they contacted that pool.

If a service states that they keep resumes on file for a certain period of time it is in your best interest to continue to submit.

Often times if a service has just done a hire and then determines they need more staff the time and expense of a full competition may not be justifiable.

Please let me know, Thanks

York Region EMS has a posting opening on Dec 20, 2010 and closing on Jan 10, 2011.
The posting is for casual PCP's. At this time I have no idea what the numbers are going to be, but they've been adding classes of well over a dozen recruits. Heck there's been three classes since I started a year and a half ago.

It's worth noting that there has been significant talk within the service and union about a change in staffing model which would see a transition to an all permanent staffing model with increased numbers of full time staff and no casuals. So it may be a good time to get on. NONE of this is confirmed at this point.

Good luck! It's a fantastic, forward thinking service to work for.

It's easy...

They come to your inbox for an annual fee. As I browsed the postings here every one of them had came to my inbox already. PT, FT, PCP, ACP, management, flight, you name it.

Cheers,
Tom

Understandable and appreciated as I am sure your website is quite useful, however I remember being a student and I certainly didn't have the money to pay an annual fee for finding out who's hiring.....bad enough the students now are being forced into paying $200+ to do the absolutely ridiculous PAE test by Ability Works. Which is only good for 3 months most of the time.

I still encourage everyone reading these forums to post opening positions for Ontario EMS Postings, and help these students out!! because I was a student at one point to

To clarify:

It's not my site. I'm merely a subscriber. Already employed but still stay on the list to hear of supervisor, management, etc postings. But I do understand your point yes. $25 bucks is well worth it to land a job though.

And PAE is absolutely ridiculous. I hear it's around 300 now? For a test that is just waiting to seriously injure a participant.
