SFPD Testing

[AirmanSingh]

Hello everyone,

I'm from Seattle and saw that NTN had a listing for for Entry level (Q-2) Police Officer for SFPD. I have three questions (I tried looking through the posts for the answer to them, but I had no luck).

1. What score does SFPD require on the video portion to receive an interview? I'm not looking for min requirements, just wanted a number to shoot above.
2. What does the Q-2 stand for?
3. Does SFPD have a veterans preference? (I can assume they do, but just want to clarify)

Thank you for your time. I apologize if these are stupid and repeated questions.

I turned in my PHS before i had my oral and within a week i was put on a NON-SELECT list.. Im pretty bummed but in the letter it states that ITS NOT A DQ.

Airman Singh, the written components are pass/ fail and require 75 or better to pass.
To pass the video component, a score of 65 or higher is required.

Q-2 officer is an entry level position.

SFPD does have verbiage in their website in regards to VP.

I would study the website in depth.

I submitted mine and never heard anything. No rejection letter or request for meeting. I'm now a Deputy Sheriff...their loss.

I don't know what my grade was. My investigator never really shared much with me and I never really asked much.

Okay so how long should someone wait, after receiving an email from backgrounds stating that an investigator has been assigned, before calling backgrounds to find out what's the status.

I received an email about a month ago stating that my BI was assigned. I waited two weeks then emailed her to introduce myself. The email was returned stating the email address I used was incorrect. I also did a reply to all on the email I received from backgrounds (BI email was on there as a cc) and that too was returned. I waited another two weeks, now a month later, and am tempted to call to see if the BI is aware of me at all. But I don't want to Jump the gun.

Any recommendations?
