Can someone tell me if during the employment process:


1. academy start date is given about a week in advance and its over the phone

2. is debts accumulated during a marriage held against you during backgrounds?----FICO 520

3. is there an acceptance/congrats/welcome letter sent to new recruit?

All three answers depend on the agency:

1) For example, LASD calls you to inform you you're hired and your academy date. The call could be months in advance, but I've met deputies who said they were called just days before.

2) Debt in and of itself is not bad. The Background Investigator will determine whether you live within or beyond your means.

3) Again, it depends on the agency. LASD hires you and asks you to come to HQ to pick up paperwork, from what I've been told.

Thanks,
i have a place for rent, i would not normally take low credit scores but this young person has told me about his going to the LASD but has nothing but a few patches to show. I've been to Gall's and know what can be purchased but i don't want to be too harsh since he's trying to get started.
