Hello everyone, first post here.
I'm thinking of applying at the Hillsborough County SO for one of their detention deputy spots and had a few questions.
- I've heard they are really hurting for detention deputies and are trying to fill positions. Is this true or are they only hiring a few at a time?
- How hard is the hiring process? I'm about to be 22 years old but have no college or military experience. I've never used any form of drugs and only tried cigarettes a couple times as a teen. Never arrested or charged with any crimes and only have 1 speeding ticket from about 4 years ago. I have decent credit (meaning I have a few small delinquences from last year when I lost my job, but I had a $5000 personal loan that I had perfect payment history on for 2 years) and job history, plus I have several LEOs (2 PCSO deputies and 1 PCSO detention deputy) who will gave me a very positive recommendation.
I consider myself to be a good, moral person with strong family ties and christian beliefs. I feel I am dependable, responsible, motivated and possess good communication skills.
Based on the above, what are my chances at getting on? Any other advice/information would be also appreciated.
Thanks in advance everyone and stay safe!
