[FlyByWire]

Just in case anyone is interested:

The Sheriff’s Office will be opening recruitment for the position of Detention Officer. The recruitment will be open from September 14, 2009 and will close on September 21, 2009 at 12:00 a.m. (midnight).

Applications for non-Maricopa County employees must be submitted on-line through http://www.maricopa.gov. Only those applications submitted by midnight on the recruitment closing date will be considered. All applicants are encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible and check the status of their application within a day or two of applying to ensure their application was successfully submitted.

If you have questions, there are several of us on here that would be happy to help I'm sure.

Doh...I've read that site beginning to end and forgot that was on there.

Thank you.

Also, I would like to ask a Detention Officer a question if there are any on here...

If i were to be a corrections officer, then after a year or two become a cop with MCSO....would my corrections time save me from having to work the jail when I become a deputy, or is it tough, still gotta start in Jails?

Deputies will usually do 12-18 months in the Court Security Division after graduating the Deputy Academy. You'll be escorting inmates to and from the Madison Street Jail to court and back, as well as standing security in court. The only exception is generally if you finish top in your class...then you go straight to the districts and patrol. Your past history as a Detention Officer/Corrections Officer won't matter.

You won't work in a custody assignment (in the jails doing headcounts, chow, etc.) as a Deputy.

I'm getting the expired certificate as well. I have a different application in with the Co. and it was fine on Friday. Weird.
