I have a very small group of people that I go to for advice because I usually try to figure things out on my own. One person I would always go to for advice was my high school counselor, Mr. Menchaca. He was the one who helped me figure out I want to go into a career that helps people and he was the one who helped me with what classes to take I in order to get to where I want to be. I still don’t know anyone who is in that field but I am trying to find someone who is that will help guide me to be a paramedic with knowledge and experience that they have had to obtain in order to be where they are. Once I make that friend I think everything will be much easier for me to accomplish because they can tell me what exactly they did to become a paramedic and help me out with how the interview works and so forth.

My ideal job situation would be entering the career I want with a degree falling under the same category as my career.
The reason I want a degree under the career I want is because the more knowledge I have related to my career the better chance I have to actually getting in that career. The entry level I would like to be in is an EMT (emergency medical technician). I will have to respond to medical calls and compose medical and activity reports. I still have yet to have met someone who is currently doing what I would like to do. It is something I want to do very soon and hopefully become friends so that he/she may give me an insight on how everything works and what happens on a daily
basis.

This website was very helpful because it is filled with information and the website gives you plenty of areas where you need to apply to as well as a bar that is at the bottom of the page that lets you apply right away. There is a position available for a paramedic in Atlanta, Georgia. There is no education required, only experience. In order to qualify you must have 2-5 years of previous experience. The summary of the job is to basically make sure all vehicles and equipment is acceptable and ready to go at all times. To provide safe transportation to patients from one point to another. This website has given me a new way of looking for a job opening in my career and has lowered the reasons why I can’t find an opening. It has been a great help and I will definitely look back at this website if I ever need help.
I found this website very helpful because it gives you information from someone else that had a different question opposed to if I was the one asking. It also gives a small biography of the person being interviewed. It gives you a better insight of what other people have done to get in the profession, for example, what educational path did they take and where did they take it. It also gives you information on how they got to where they are. What I found very intriguing about this website was the quotes that were shown next to their names. I did not get the opportunity to watch the whole video but I read all the information that was provided. Charlene Wright is part of the board of directors and also a cooperative lawyer.
This foundation was found in 1993 and you can donate or volunteer from anywhere. There are several categories that you can click on like helping yourself donate or helping others. I had clicked on the help you part and went to the categories inspiring quotes and from there I clicked on joy. There were some pretty inspiring quotes that can relate to almost anyone on a daily basis. I had also found the link on stopping poverty and how you can take action to make a difference in Haiti. As well as how we can all sign the petition to give all the money that was said was going to be given because only a small percentage was provided to Haiti. It has only been 2 years and still not all the millions that was said to be given has not yet been received.
