The Top Reason Applicants FAIL a POLICE background INVESTIGATION 🚔 ‼️

In this video, I will discuss my personal opinion on why so many applicants or people fail the police officer background investigation process. This is not professional advice. Although I am a POST certified background investigator, I do not represent any employer or law enforcement agency.

I was just interviewed by an investigator in reference to a job as a hospital police officer. The investigator asked so many questions dating back to the time I was 5. Man, there were so many questions. Damn! I have a guard card and in the process of receiving a firearm's permit. This is why I decided to get into law enforcement.

I think the whole Background Investigation is a joke because the polygraph isn't always accurate, just because your speech changes or you move doesn't automatically mean you are lying, it could mean you're tired nervous, stressed out, God knows. I went through the whole process with the CBP and I was disqualified because of something the Background Investigator made up, like almost forcing me to agree to something I've never done in my life. Plus, how ironic is it that the process is to determine who is fit when the one's who are fit often times are the most unreliable and corrupt. I'm 100% pro police but the certain things are unnecessary in the background investigation

I just passed my department interview for LAPD. I’m 21 years old. I’ve never smoked, done drugs, have criminal history, or any citations. But still I’m nervous that somehow I will fail. This is all very new to me.

What I’ve gathered is this: Be honest, and open to anything they ask. The worst they can say at that point is “You don’t meet our qualifications right now”

Just got screened out. During my background application I genuinely forgot I stole a broken printer from my employer and I put no I haven’t stolen anything. Days leading up to my poly test I remember that situation and I let him know before the test begun. I pass the poly test. Investigator calls says why didn’t you disclose that in your application i tell him I genuinely forgot about it. I think this was the reason I was screened out.

I failed a polygraph with my department for a promotion.. after passing a poly to get hired lol..
it’s a joke and politics. Keep applying and wait your turn. Your time will come. Stick to your answers. It’s a game.

Some places are tricky. A buddy of mine tried to get in to NYPD and he had a small business with his brother which flopped in 2008 due to the crash. The guy was a smart Polish cat. Smart, athletic and tall. Anyways his business had to file bankruptcy. He did all the tests, took time from work and passed everything then they say he couldn't get in because they were not notified about that and asked him why he never mentioned what happened to his business. What happened was his investigator/recruiter retired and didn't file his paperwork. They told him to try again and he did and was about to get in but at that time NYPD was making $37K starting and he got a union job with first shift, making $27 an hour and over time with great benefits. He turned it down which shocked them because he tried so hard to get in.

I know of so many weird cases like that.

I'm currently in the process of having a background investigator investigate me for Mesa Police department. I am not that nervous as I am confident in myself. However, I heard so many nightmares about the hiring process and so for these reasons I am apprehensive. Nevertheless I will triumph and join Mesa police.

MY POLYGRAPHER TOLD ME IN MY FACE. YOU PASSED THE TEST AND THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST. THEN I GO GET MY DRUG TEST AND PSYCH TEST. POLY MAN BRINGS ME BACK INTO THE ROOM AND ASK ME. HEY DID YOU USE COUNTERMEASURES. I SAID NO. I DIDNT MOVE AT ALL JADA JADA. THEN I GET THE DREADED EMAIL. ITS ALL BS . THEY ARE SHORT STAFFED BECAUSE OF THIS PICKINESS AND BS TACTICS

There's no way you can fail a police test. I mean look at the police out there.

I’ve completed the academy, was given a conditional offer by a sheriff’s office here, got disqualified due to prior work history. I got fired from a job for tardiness while on probation while I was in school, and have had tardiness write ups before. I was completely honest about all of it, and have a good reputation at my current job I’ve had for almost a year. I’ve been passed on by 6 departments so far. Most don’t say why. Only one said it was my background, and the first one said it was my work history. I’m definitely unsure of what to do at this point. I’ve kept a good work history since the job I was fired from. I’m still not getting picked up.

When you tell the truth is always consistent when you lied is hard to keep same story best thing to do is always say the truth and be honest

[luciogarcia]

“Inconsistent statements”
That is a key piece of information.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos👍🙏.

Just started my background investigation process today! Praying it goes well!

[firasmr]

I was disqualified although I have a bachelor's degree and I have no criminal record I have no adverse driving history and I am only Twenty two years old so I did not build anything negative in my life, I work with my father and he pays me cash and I told them everything about my residence about my job yet they still disqualified me and they say it's personal history statement but they won't tell me why😂 they prefer an ignorant uneducated military 9 with experience in the military for 5 years over and educated civil man in California it all works with connection just like Hollywood we have a lot of nepotism here😢

[pablovagnor]

Every single person that drinks or had a drink. At some point in their life, have thought. " Should I be driving ". Buzzed or plastered

continue: I did applied to 8 law enforcement agencies throughout the 5 years and I just applied to fairfax sheriff department on 8/14 and the fairfax police department on 8/16 looking to get hired and I live in New Jersey wanting to relocate and start over again, I don't want sanitation no more that's why I prefer a new career in the justice department.

[dmasterdesigns]

I surely hope I get in. Law enforcement has been my passion. My entire life.

I see that a lot of people are writing you about their situation so here I go. I am a 59 year old Black male that’s been employed on my job for going on 38 years and about to retire. I am a USMC veteran, and have retired from the Army Reserve after over 21 years of service in 2018. Now the bad part, I was arrested in 1985 for DWI in NY (paid a fine), arrested in NC in 1988 for DWAI (paid a fine), in the late 1990’s I was arrested 2 times for allegedly drinking and driving but wasn’t convicted (both times because of police misconduct), and finally in 2006 I got arrested for a misdemeanor gun charge. I again paid a fine. Since 2006 I haven’t been arrested or came in contact with any police department. I applied to a department in GA and was passed on after submitting required documents. Now I’m applying to a department that is hurting for officers. Do I have a chance of being picked up?

Departments look for applicants that are not obsessed with becoming a cop. Ego cops are very dangerous and a huge liability. Treat it like a job and not like a kid wanting a badge and a gun. When I took my poly, I was very relaxed and carefree. I was more concerned about getting back home so I could play my video games. I lied about past drug use and still passed. Even got the examiner to laugh a few times with my humor. I didn't really want the job, but needed a stable paycheck. Most of the bad apples that slip through the cracks had connections and knew someone.
