Hello Ive took my medical and was under review , I just got off review and instead of making me do my written and physical test they told me to contact my investigator to continue the process , I asked my investigator why didn't I take the other test yet and he said he has no idea , should I contact lefrak or just wait for them to contact me ? I really wanna get into the jan 2015 class but I feel my process is going backwards

Hello all,

It's been a long time since I posted in here but I'll give an update and offer some advice.

I've been on the job for a year now. I was supposed to make the June 2013 academy class but was held back due to missing paper work. I was called for the Oct 2013 class and graduated the academy in Feb 2014. I was placed out in the schools a week after.

The academy had its ups and downs. It had it moments where I was happy to be around friends that helped each other to make it thru and moments where I wanted to quit because of the pressure from instructors and officers. But I never gave up and never let the bad get to me. You will be working out at least 2 hours a day, studying a lot for exams and will come home very tired. You will have to put some of your social life on hold because you have to stay focused. The people in your life will have to understand. The ones who care about you the most will.

When you get out into the field and go into the schools you will hear tons of stories. Depending on where you will be placed some may be true and some may be false but the key is make sure you follow the law and do what you are told. You will be around people who been on the job for many years that are bitter and do things their way. Don't follow them! Do your job and stay positive. While the salary may not sound too great you will have the option to do some overtime. There's tons of overtime out here. Plus the salary is about to go up soon so there will be a lot of great changes soon.

I have my moments but I can honestly say that this job is cool. I'm currently in the process of leaving school safety to go to another division and about to start that academy soon so I will definitely say that this job is a great stepping stone. If anyone have any questions you can feel free to ask.

Good luck to all!
