Any updates for you?

Do your best to keep busy by staying productive. Do your best at work, keep working out and improving your fitness, maybe even volunteer at some local organizations. Let the wheels turn at their own pace and hang around for the ride. Feel free to DM me if you have questions or just want to talk.

Polygraph was good. She just had some
Follow up questions after the test but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. If you tell the truth there is nothing to worry about I guess . But then again some people failed also after telling the truth so I just don’t know . This waiting game is torture :/

Most departments send out notices via post or email if a candidate isn't being moved forward in the process. How was your polygraph? Did the examiner say anything to you?

9/11 background intake appointment
9/25 background investigator reached out via stating I will be contacted in 2 weeks for interview to go over my PHQ packet
9/26 polygraph text

waiting.... so they send out letters if you failed polygraph test ?

[InZain08]

Had my initial interview with the BI. Now it's just a waiting game to see what the command staff wants to do with my packet.

[InZain08]

Yes, I had my polygraph exam prior to being assigned a BI.

You did polygraph before meeting with your B.I.?
It was the opposite for me.

[InZain08]

I'm guessing I cleared the polygraph; my BI introduced himself via email and scheduled an initial phone call with me.

[LEO404]

I’m in the 183B and haven’t heard anything back from my BI in about 2 months now.

[OPDrecruit]

I'm in 182C and haven;t heard anything since April

184A Applicant here.

Polygraph on 9/28/19

Nothing heard since then.

Anyone else have updates?

[Recruit3185]

I was there for backgrounds processing on 9/11 and we were told next academy is in mid January

[OPDrecruit]

Anyone know when the next academy is scheduled to start?

[LEO404]

Group 183B, was ranked 10th during my oral board interviews. My BI wanted me in the August academy but I went on vacation and couldn’t make it so he’s planning on having me in the January academy.
