Krista Wenz has been on thousands of interview panels hiring EMS professionals and firefighters for public and private agencies.

Technology is constantly evolving, and virologists must keep current with these advancements. You can attend annual conferences, virology journals you can subscribe to, and blogs and forums you can participate in. The interviewer wants to see that they can depend on you to stay current with technological advancements if hired.
