I got hired by the department I currently work for because of appearance. It was narrowed down to me and another person. They showed up to the panel interview with a polo shirt and jeans and shirt not tucked in. The one I beat out had more experience but how I presented myself made the difference.

And THEY WILL CALL ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY For references. Either on the phone or in person. Do not think that they won't. They will clearly do a FULL background.

I’ve wanted to be a cop since I was 7 and I’m a sophomore and looking how so thankyou for the tips

[maxM]

Perfect timing, I just got home from taking my county’s police test

Great video. Always make the right choice. Think it through and go beyond the immediate moment. Never be impulsive.

I had to drop academy because I broke ribs during physical restraining training. For everyone out there wanting to wear the uniform.. Work out not to be stronger than the others but to become stronger from yourselves now. Martial arts are a plus. You learn how to deal with certain situations and solidify your body for those situations

[azgunguy]

As someone who’s going through the process, DO NOT
1. Lie
2. Cheat
3. Steal

Being a LEO is about integrity at its base, if you lie cheat or steal, your foundation of integrity has been demolished and you will definitely not be a choice candidate. Be honest. It’s better to be honest about an F up than lie and get caught. It shows you’ve matured despite making a mistake previously.

about the wise choises thing....a man once told me, you gotta do what you gotta do so you can do what you want to do

also military experience is preferable to many law enforcement agencies. the military prepares you for a lot of the different requirements police departments have, from appearance and physical fitness, to weapons training and discipline.
