So how is the written test like since I have to take it on the 29th. I would of taken it on the 8th if I didn't have to work I don't know what to expect as this would be my first LEO exam.

Also any1 know how long do u have to wait before u start training after being hired? thanx

Written test is easy, I think it was about 3 hours long. They give you a book and you have 25 minutes to memorize it, you can even take notes. All you need is a 70 or better to past.

The next academy is sometime this month and the next one after that is in February in VA.

I just took the psychological exam yesterday, that was the last step in the process. I will let you know how long it takes for me to get hired (if I get hired).

Well the oral board was easy, it only lasted about 10 minutes. Its was 3 people and they asked about 5 questions each. I dont remember each question, but its nothin you havent heard before if you read this board. 1. What would you do if you saw a coworker stealing, 2. Why do you want to be a LEO, the basic stuff.

One thing I did notice about them is it seems like all the new recruits where young (25 and younger), I didnt see any recruits that looked like they was in there 30's. But Im sure If you have a degree or military and a clean record you are gonna be at the top of the list.

35yo here with an AA Degree only but have been running the company I work for,for the last 6-7 years. I will say I am pretty sure I was the oldest there Sat. but only about 5-6 people finished ahead of me in the 1.5 run so i was happy for that.

Has anyone else went through the process with them, I have an Oral board interview with them this week. I just want to know what else to expect. Do they take a long time on the background check and do you have to take a poly with them. They dont give a lot of info on the website.
