Hi guys and thanks for stopping by! My name is Melissa and I have been a police officer for 13 years. I am currently a lieutenant in a large metropolitan police department and there are surely some things that will help you out in the police application process. In this video, I explain some critical elements in the hiring process. So if you are interested in becoming a police officer, I hope you take the time to consider this information. Some qualifications include: being a United States citizen or possessing naturalization documentation, being at least 20 years old, having a valid driver's license, having a high school diploma or GED certificate, possessing an honorable or uncategorized discharge from a military branch, successful completion of a cognitive skills examination and personality assessment, visual ability of 20/20 with or without vision corrections, and passing a medical and psychological examination.
I hope you find some value in this video and I will see you soon!
Don’t forget to follow me over on Instagram:

Thank you so much for your love and support! Can’t wait to see you in my next video!
Always,

Not a mom but I love your channel! I am also in law enforcement but took a very much needed break from it! And am ready to get back into it! I’m 24 and came from truck driving! I just had a oral board interview with a department but they told me they couldn’t go forward with the process and I was one step away from being hired! I have a pending speeding ticket they said I have to take care of! I was sad but I’m still pushing and succeeding!

So helpful! I ended up applying to local department kind of randomly before knowing the process, now I know I need more time to become physically prepared and it’s pretty awkward that I applied already since it will take me awhile to get back into shape for the test...

PT base line requirements for a female (example: 5'4") is different from a male (example: 5'4"). They'll all to do the same scenarios, activities, and workouts, but the expectations in performance are different due to physiological differences between the two genders. They are NOT graded the same. I'd highlight that because it is very important. Other than that..love the video. Gave it a thumbs up.

@copmom911 Жыл бұрын

Yes the expectation and reality of performance levels is different for everyone, especially when considering different genders. However, what I meant here was that the PT testing standards required to be hired as well as graduate the academy process are usually the same for each candidate. At least with the requirements I have details on! I appreciate the thought!

@MarkelBeverley Жыл бұрын

@@copmom911 Thanks for the reply and I understand. I guess my concern is... at least on most channels.. the officers (especially female officers) stress that everyone has to meet the exact same standards to become officers and that's not always the case. Especially when it comes to the overall burden of performance on women vs. the overall burden of performance on men. There is a big difference. Thanks for the clarification. Great channel.

Lying in law enforcement is horrible and a No No! I have a misdemeanor traffic ticket that isn’t serious but I put it on my application with my first department and they asked what the details were and they accepted me for one because it wasn’t a major offense and I told the truth so there’s that! It always tells you on the application to be truthful that not all things will disqualify you! I have 4 accidents on my driving record within 2 months one was at fault and the other three was not at fault! Most departments don’t look at the not at faults but rather at faults!

eh, All good and all, but still unconstitutional. In fact, I would venture to say that the U.S. Constitution doesn't provide for a "police force" in the sense that we think of it, and as such - our modern thinking on the subject of law enforcement doesn't really comport with the U.S. constitution.
