You have to take the tests in order to even be considered. The process is quite difficult from what I understand.

Try the Portland Police Bureau...they are really looking for people right now. I think Salem is also hiring in addition to the county I live in, Washington. They seem to be always hiring for Deputy Sheriff's, CO's, etc. http://www.washington.co.or.us
Good luck!

The State Police are recruiting very earnestly right now. Keep in mind that recruits now get a stipend earlier in the training program than before, and that a few weeks of the course are residential, in a barracks setting.
I would recommend it for someone looking into police work in this region. The State Police have a good benefits program and competitive salary rates with other state police agencies.
