  • Police Applicant Background Packet!

    So, i've decided to start applying to police departments. I'm bored, so I was looking through the background packet (personal history statement), and this kind of surprised me. There's a section, where it asks about public safety contacts. Some of the questions were have you ever been photographed, chased or fingerprinted by either a LEO or security official. For those that have either completed or even looked at a such a packet ever seen security mentioned in such a way? Makes me wonder if you check off yes to any of the questions. Very interesting to me...thoughts?

    Use the packet as a window into what the oral interview will be like. Start figuring out how you will answer some very personal questions - they want to know EVERYTHING. When I had mine, they also told me to expect an unannounced visit by a police investigator at home. That "visit" lasted about an hour and included three pages of questions covering every facet of my life. High School and college transcripts are also scrutinized.

      Look out for when they slap on the rubber gloves.

        Oh yes they do, it's pretty interesting the questions they come up with during the poly. They always do a home visit, just hope that day the house is clean.

            When is the last time you cleaned the toilet and bath tub and the base boards of walls near the carpet?
