    Switching from Mechanical Engineering to being a paramedic is a big jump—from machines to helping people in emergencies. But you can totally do it! Here’s the deal:

    First, check out what paramedics actually do—what skills you need, how tough it can be, and what schooling you’ll need.

    Then, take some paramedical courses. Look for colleges or schools that actually offer proper training.

    Next, fix up your resume and cover letter so it shows any skills that could help in paramedicine.

    Finally, start going for entry-level paramedic jobs or EMS gigs. You’ll usually learn a lot on the job too.
