ATTENTION FUTURE POLICE APPLICANTS
With almost a half-million peace officers in the U.S. and an
annual turnover approaching 10 percent, you would think it's a
simple matter to just walk in and sign up. But that's just not
the case. Hundreds show up to take the test for ten or twenty
openings! Thousands at the really big agencies. If you're
interested in a career in law enforcement, you're going to have to
face the truth:
Competition for law enforcement jobs today is tough! Only the
BEST PREPARED police applicants will be hired in the 90's! The
written exam is only ONE hurdle in the selection process. To gain
a competitive edge you'll need to understand and prepare for the
background investigation, oral interview(s), assessment center,
physical agility test and more! If you know what's expected of
you, you'll be able to deliver! Remember: most applicants pass
the written exam, but most applicants are not hired as police
officers!
THE COMPLETE LAW ENFORCEMENT REFERENCE MANUAL AND CAREER GUIDE is
the complete, one-stop source of information for those seeking a
career as a peace officer or civilian employee with a U.S. law
enforcement agency.
This is NOT simply a written test guide! as stated above, most
applicants are successful on the written test; however, most
applicants are NOT hired as police officers! In fact, many
agencies appear to use the written exam only as a tool to weed out
the "walking dead" before the REAL selection process begins!
This guide will help you be the "complete" police applicant! With
it you'll learn the inside story on the entire selection process
used at most agencies. Passing the written exam will only earn
you the right to advance to:
1. THE BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION - They'll talk to people you
forgot you knew. And some you never knew!
2. THE PHYSICAL AGILITY TEST - Why is it important to learn to
walk on a "beam" or push a car? That's right; at least one
agency will want you to push a car for 50 feet! (let's hope
that idea doesn't catch on!)
3. THE PHYSICAL EXAM - Thinking about Radial Keratotomy surgery to
improve your vision? Don't run out and have it done just yet!
4. THE POLYGRAPH TEST - Just what can they ask you, and what can
they do with your answers?
5. THE ORAL INTERVIEW - These can range from "informal" at some
small agencies to a grand affair in front of a large panel.
You definately don't want to be at half-speed here!
6. THE ASSESSMENT CENTER - A "hands-on" performance test that will
make or break you. if your target agency uses it; (more and
more do) be ready!
Speaking of target agencies; if you're planning to work for your
home- town police or sheriff's department, or your state agencies,
you may already know, or be able to find out, all you need to know
about that agency without too much trouble. But if you're
undecided, or need a change of scenery, how do you find out what
law enforcement agency is right for you, and is best matched to
your qualifications? Well, there are basically three
alternatives:
1. You could lick stamps and envelopes all day and mail out
inquiries, or
2. You could run up your phone bill trying to find out the same
information, or
3. You can use THE COMPLETE LAW ENFORCEMENT REFERENCE MANUAL AND
CAREER GUIDE to learn of several easier, much cheaper, ways.
THE COMPLETE LAW ENFORCEMENT REFERENCE MANUAL AND CAREER GUIDE
contains the entry qualifications, salaries, benefits, selection
process used, and other important information for more than 150
federal, state, county, and municipal law enforcement agencies
around the country. You'll also find sources that will give you
information on thousands of agencies free!. This information is
continuously updated!
While your searching through agency requirements, no matter what
publication you get them from, remember this: finding out an
agencie's requirements is important, but it's not THE most
important step in your quest for a law enforcement career.
GETTING THE JOB is the most important step!
To help you achieve that all-important step, THE COMPLETE LAW
ENFORCEMENT REFERENCE MANUAL AND CARRER GUIDE takes you yet
another step beyond other career guides. One of the best ways to
ease the tension of your job search is not only learning about the
application and testing process, but to learn and become familiar
with what really goes on out there on the street. What do police
officers do at family disturbances and other calls? What types of
calls do they like, and which ones do they hate? What does that
10-code really mean? With this guide you'll go behind the scenes
on calls such as traffic accidents, family disturbances, burgalr
alarms, homicides, and more! You'll learn what happens at some of
the common types of calls and what to expect if your the center of
attention! What do police officer's think about tickets, and can
you avoid getting one? Why do police officers really hang out at
donut shops? What do they do when they're not on a call? Do they
have fun on duty? Sure, and you'll find out about some of their
favorite antics!

applicant.
