The Poly is quite the experience! I found it difficult to remain still for so long. Remember, It’s not a truth machine, the machine simply measures your body’s biometric response to a question. I feel like those who are more nervous or have higher levels of anxiety will have greater biometric activity when questioned. Stay positive, hope you hear something soon.

I can't stress this enough, if you are IN BACKGROUNDS go to AS MANY (if not all) of the pt workshops. There are two pt workouts held per month. Usually one is on the first Sunday and the second one is on the 3rd Saturday. Something like that. Your background investigator should have sent you the info to these.

I haven’t received any info from my BI, can you go even if it wasn’t offered by your BI?

Are you currently in backgrounds? IF so then YES you can. Unfortunately your B.I should have forwarded you the info of the next PT workshops. Either send an email asking your BI to send you the dates for February, OR email Officer Damon Gilbert

Live I've said, if you have been assigned a background investigator reach out to either your B.I OR officer Gilbert. If you dont have Gilbert's contact info you can PM me and I will give it too you. You arent suppose to go to the workshop until you have been assigned an investigator. This is because you need to "pass" a certain point before you get an investigator (this is just what I've heard) and cant attend workshops until you do so. If you have an investigator you are more then welcome to attend. Unfortunately it's up to the investigator to relay that info to you so you can attend them. Not all do it, or forget it seems like.
If I get the dates for February I'll post here and ask you guys to PM if you want them.
The PT workshop consists of a 1.5 mile Timed run
Max pushups in 1 min
Max situps in 1 min
That's it.

Hope everyone is staying safe and active during this whole lockdown mess. I was notified via email that Oakland isn’t moving forward with me and I’m not eligible to reapply. Wish they would tell me why...
gopd luck to everyone moving forward. Hopefully I’ll have better luck with another agency.

Yea man they held 2 PT’s every month. I only participated in 4 when due to COVID they had to stop conducting them. It was very useful and also looked very well on us as a candidate to participate in as many we could , Also they would evaluate you after every PT to see if you did better then the previous session.
