I know I already posted this in the "Off Topics" Forum, but I wanted to post it here to because this is my home. I am interested in becoming a police officer and had some questions for any of the members that might be police officers. Even if your not and have some helpful info please post. I know everyone is from everywhere on here, but my question are pretty general i think you could still help. I would appreciate any and all advice and help.


1. What is the pysch test? Is it written or do you sit in front of a psychiatrist and he evaluates you. Are there any words of advice I could use, when I take this test


2. I have heard that sometimes even when you tell the truth you can still fail the polygraph exam. Is this the truth? If so what can I do, besides tell the truth thats given, to pass?


3. This is a little more direct, or should I say state specific, but what are someone's chances getting accepted if they have some traffic violations, mainly speeding. The criminal background is clean, never been charged with a felony or crime, only traffic offenses.

Thank you to anyone who responds with info!!

 

First off, are you referring to City Police, County Sheriff, State Trooper, SLED, Transport Cop, ect.?

my best friend just became a mint hill police officer. He can answer your questions. Meet us up for a brew and you can ask him all you want. He is still in that "honeymoon" stage where all he likes to do is talk about police stuff.
