Do you have questions for a new officer (aka me!)?? Let me know by replying to this comment!

The best mindset to have for an oral board is (like you said), “I deserve a seat at this table”. Don’t let the panel intimidate you, they are humans just like you.

This is my second year applying to a bunch of departments. I’ve talked with officers, it took some of them even with a college degree 2-4 years to get hired. If you want this career, don’t give up! We need passionate officers. Goodluck everyone ❤️❤️❤️💙💙💙

Please make a video about the academy! I will be looking forward to it-- especially an aspiring female police officer! :-) Congratulations!!

I am scheduled to take the MMPI2 next month. Thank you, for sharing your experience! This video boosted my confidence!

Gotta follow your dreams and wants in doing so...good for you!🌝

Good luck, I hope you have a exciting and fulfilling career.

You’re a life saver for these videos!! What kinds of situational questions did they ask u during the panel?

What questions can I ask the panel board???

CONGRATULATIONS! Thanks 4 sharing your experience with us.

All that for 40k a year Job, im going for written tonight cus i just passed my Agility physical test. I keep trying with no hire, all i got was minor traffic on my record. Just wasting ppls time, i think background should be first before u go through all that exercise only to get dropped

I flipped the script at the end I'll asked what do you guys think as a department you all can improve on......

Thanks for the video very helpful. I’m about to have my oral board. Not nervous, mostly anxious.

What were the questions you asked the panel?

Was ur reading comprehension test the Nelson Denny test? And if so what was your strategy to read the 5 paragraphs and answer the 36 questions in 20 min?

What books should I read for the academy? I already have a police exam preparation book. I'm more worried about academic stuff.

so how much time had you put in before the background and poly test?

How was the psych exam? I had one for the first time and it was a little nerv racking.

Failed my first Polygraph....going to apply to 3 more departments hopefully one of them takes me

Im starting my process first by taking CJBATLEO in about a month.. a little lost still on where to go after that. Other than submit application after i get my score. Physical is not a problem, already trained for that. But just a bit nervous about where to go after my exam and whatto do

Sorry just wondering if the "post entrance " test is the same as to the one you are taking about

What questions did you ask the interviewers?

Hello Tell me please. What exams do you need to take to get into the police academy? and if you know where, you can buy the package online. so that you can do it yourself online.

Thanks for the tips and sharing your insights!

Good to hear your story. I am at the background phase in mine right now. I already did the written, physical and panel interview. The next phase after the background will be the polygraph test. I think I am more nervous about the polygraph than any other part. It is not because I lied or anything like that but it is because I have done physical, interviews, background and written tests before. I have never done a polygraph so I don’t know what to expect. I read that once I am truthful I will be fine so that put me at some ease. I always think that I have lived a boring life because I have never done drugs, except tried marijuana just to taste it, or anything like that. Now that I am applying for my dream job I am happy I had a “boring” life. 🙂

Young Irish girl coming through watch out ,hope it goes well ,peace.

I'm in the process for san jose pd and their process is SO different. The order of everything is different, the panel interview is in the testing process with the written and physical. I'm done with the background, which was super in depth. they flew to Massachusetts to look at my old house and talk to my old neighbors lol. I'm just waiting to hear from the hiring board results. San jose is tough, I applied in January so hopefully I get in lol

What kind of questions do they ask on the polygraph and psych exam

I want to be a police officer, but I have a few things on my record, nothing major, but I don’t know the dates they occurred. I know they ask that on the application. How can I get a background check done to be sure everything I put on my application is 100% accurate?

Dang we are the same I'm almost 30 and I'm applying soon. Only thing is being fit I was pretty fit working old job but now I'm like bleh. Lol So lots of hard work ahead.

Oh man. I only just passed the written exam. Getting ready for my physical now. Feels like still got a long road to go.

Just saw you on the journey vid haha. Youre close to me. Are you still with them?

Do they have a height requirement? I’m pretty short and will probably not grow anymore, maybe an inch or less.

Is the written test multiple choice???? Also you didn’t have a integrity interview??? I just applied and now I have a phone meeting tomorrow.

I applied for a department in texas and got hired.

I liked the description your psych test

It’s very different here in Washington

Congratulations!

I’ve been in the hiring process for the Michigan state police for a little over a year now. Andddd I just passed my hiring interview. Now I’m waiting for my conditional offer :)

Hey congrats I’m in the process as well in Florida how do yo pass the MMPI test that I will have to take soon

What about previous work history? I’ve had a couple jobs that didn’t work out and I quit within a few weeks or months should I list those jobs or not?

Did they put you in a little for the hearing test?

I just started the process for capitol police how do you study for the assessment test?

So who pays for the academy , you or the department that hires you?

How was the psych eval? was it brutal?

After completing Masters degree from Canada is it possible to get a good post in Police job?

For my department I applied for I passed my written, physical, and ora board. Next is background process if I make it through that the poly, phsyc, and medical, then job offer I’ll be getting contacted for my background within the next two weeks 😬

With reference to our previous comment- example; Cop- `GIVE me your id` You- `YES, CERTAINLY, it`s just that we charge you for OUR TIME with that performance, please and thank you` (be polite, it makes for better-business-practice) example; Cop- `Where are you travelling to? You- `It`s just that we charge you for answering your questions, please & thank you`

Can I call you for more advice

i’m a little late to this but congrats. i have my written test in a few days and i’m so nervous haha

6 months?!?! Wow so lucky. I am from NY where it takes anywhere from 6-12 months just for the civil service results/list to be released. If you do not mind me asking, what state do you work in? Currently looking at departments out of state!

Its all in who you know. I did not get on with any department I tried for years. If it were not for the Undersheriff growing up in the same neighborhood as my mother I would have never gotten offer. All it took was meeting the sheriff and his poor attitude and I walked out on the same day I was hired. Don't think its all going to be peaches and cream, it not. What I have seen for years is many who did get hired were the same kids I saw in school and they were the type that got picked on all the time. When this type gets hired and for many it tends to go to their head and they end up doing dumb things that get them fired or in one case put in prison (PEDO). I live right outside and Army base that supplies the local LE agencies with new recruits, these tend to be the first they hire. Why ? Because the agency heads know these officers are newly discharged from the military and that these recruits will just end up getting their LE credentials here in my state and then transfer back to their home states for LE jobs there. So its beneficial for the departments in my town to hire them since the recruits won't be here long and the local LE agencies don't have to contribute or pay out a retirement.

I’ve always thought; is it easier for women to become cops than men due to affirmative action and inclusivity quotas?

Congratulations! Hope everything goes well for you! What state did you apply in? If you don't mind? Please. I was hoping in some sample questions they asked.

Thanks for your information, weldone

I’m in the process now here in North Carolina
