they plans open house

The job hunt can be a time consuming task. Preparing resumes, scouring job boards, calling on prospective employers. Universal Careers is helping to bring the job hunt to you.

Universal Careers, a leader in the training and certification of EMT/paramedics, is holding a recruitment open house on January 18, 2011, for EMTs and paramedics.

The organization is working to bring in representatives and recruiters from the database of clients that it has already placed UC graduates into. The open house will allow Emergency Medical Services professionals the opportunity to talk one on one with these companies and organizations in both the public and private sector. The potential attendees include city emergency services, public and private hospitals, schools and care facilities.

Jack Peterson, career development for UC, said, “We are excited about bringing in a large pool of potential employers for EMS professionals to meet with. We already work with several of these groups through Universal Careers' aggressive placement programs, but the open house allows more people to benefit in one large area.”

Since 2005, Universal Careers has been training EMTs to certify in all 50 states. By using experienced paramedics as instructors, and employing hands-on state-of-the-art training in and outside of the classroom, Universal Careers has helped thousands of students certify as EMTs through their intensive course.

With employment needs in both public and private sector jobs, and an expected growth of 9% over the next decade in the EMS field, certified professionals are in demand.
