Can you give us any input ? Do you like it ? How was the process ? Really appreciated. We all have many questions . Anything you can tell us will help .
Thank you
I’m in a command that is not busy. So my day consists of answering the phone and putting in 3 or 4 complaints. I do like it but it’s not what I want to do for the rest of my career.
The training at the Police Academy was for 6 weeks. Towards the end you are given a command where you train for 2 weeks (It is not your permanent location but it could be).The classes are criminal justice, typing, telephone switchboard and English. There’s a midterm and final. In all honesty the Academy doesn’t train you sufficiently for the job. I learned more in the field.
Does anyone know whether or not they will work strictly from the list once it's established or will the people who started the provisional hiring process be hired ahead of people who may have scored higher?
Y'all need to stop worrying..lol. the provisionals that have been hired are from the list. It just wasn't certified yet, none of them are off the street. No one is going to be overlooked. People will be disqualified through the investigation process..so that will move the list along. Once again, I strongly encourage people to start gathering their paperwork. The most expensive thing you will need is your social security earnings statement....get that now so it'll be easier to document all of the jobs you've had.

Good advice. I, myself, will be going to my local Social Security office to get my earnings statement.
Quick question, @brownberries: Does it have to be the certified earnings statement?
i dont know if its certified or not; I believe they stamp it. If that is the one you're referencing, then yes.
Order all of your transcripts, make sure you recall all of the places where you have lived. Once you get the earnings statement, use that to compose your job history and account for all periods of unemployment, Get NOTARIZED letters from everyone who financially supported you during that time.
That is the stuff that needs to be worked on NOW; dont worry about when they'll start calling people. Have everything ready to go; Trust me.

Just wanted to say thank you for the advice; it's much appreciated.
