If I do a Paramedic Degree am I guaranteed a job?

Am I guaranteed a job if a complete a paramedic degree? The short answer is: no, you’re not guaranteed a job once if you complete a paramedic’s degree.

If you complete a Paramedic degree you still have to apply for a Student Ambulance Paramedic or Graduate Paramedic Student position. Although it is much more likely that you will get a position once you have a degree in Paramedics, it is by no means certain that you will get a job. Most Ambulance Services are increasing their intake of Graduate Students each year and decreasing their intake of non-tertiary student intakes. This shows how much each Ambulance Service is committed to providing the best skill and knowledge base to its patients and recognises the fact that Ambulance Paramedics as a career really is becoming a profession, such as Registered Nurses, Doctors, Physiotherapists or any other Allied Health Professional
