By the end of summer I'll be going in front of two groups for my Interview.  One for a local department and one for a State Patrol.   I'm looking for exeperienced individuals to possibly highlight or touch on some of the do's and don'ts of the interview process.

Did the same thing when I was 19. Good luck.


BTW, I didn't make it.

hey wow, thanks for the valuable input, I'm sure glad I have a bunch of smart guys around to aid me.  Man what would the world do without you guys? It sure would suck to have to pump my own gas, thanks fellas!

If you have nothing valuable to add, go to a thread about French people.

Here's some valuable input:

Why don't you go outside and play hide and go fuck yourself.

Pig wannabe.

Posting an ? to LEO on the GD board is asking for it, Why dont you go to the LEO board and ask a question about flying a kite.

heh-heh --- he said [i][red]French [/red]

Actually, it would be good to do a mock interview for the purpose of practicing being on the spot and thinking on your feet.  Now how's that?  Also make sure there's some water handy.

On a more serious note, one tip I can give you would be to not make fun of an interviewer's birth defects (i.e. uneven ears, lazy eye, dead conjoined twin's head protuding from the neck area, you get the picture..).  I can't believe some of these guys on the board would make fun of your post. Sheesh... [;)]

If there's a female, staring at her boobs could work against you...........

I can't remember if they tried to get me P.O.'d or not, but being able to check (not eliminate) your temper is probably a skill you would do well to demonstrate.

Actually, weather its a male or female, staring at their boobs will work against you.

It's been many moons since I took my test.  I bet things have changed since then.

I would suggest that you try to talk to someone that is in the department and they could tell you what to expect.

And don't worry about the cop haters here.  Most of us aren't.  It's mostly the dim ones.

You know, like the bonehead kid on the job interview in the A&W root beer commercial.
