[Ohio CO]

Got my tattoo request. Does anyone know what the next step is or if they’re thinking of hiring me?

[MDV31012]

I just got a call for a tattoo request for the correctional treatment officer position. The lady said they were not hiring yet but needed to complete my file.

[Ohio CO]

What institution is your number one pick

[MDV31012]

The facility in Elgin and then Joliet.

[Ohio CO]

I applied for Joliet and Pontiac. I’m about to email them and make Pontiac my number one choice

[Ohio CO]

Anyone know if idoc is still hiring

[Rmckenz85]

Yes they need several spots filled at pretty much every facility

[Rmckenz85]

I just tested July 11th and already got an offer! I just went and did my drug/blood/TB test. Start the Academy Sept. 30th!

[MDV31012]

Do you know if the treatment facilities are hiring as well?

[ILCO2]

That was pretty fast. What is the facility? And if you don't mind saying, what was your score?

[Backblue12]

Congratulations! I tested this aug, hoping to get a call for Statesville.What score did you get in with?

[Rmckenz85]

Im going to Illinois River and my score was a 66.

I tested in April. A little disapointed with my score of 74. How about you?

[Backblue12]

Have you gotten your tattoo request yet?
74 isn’t bad I got a 78. I can’t wait to get called..

[ILCO2]

I don't have any tattoos.

[Backblue12]

Best of luck brother!!

[Ohio CO]

How long does it usually take after your tattoo request?

[ILCO2]

It depends on your facility and score. I think Pontiac hires alot. What did you score?

[Ohio CO]

I scored a 62 and I have Pontiac as my first choice

[Medic68]

Does anyone know if menerd hires a lot and I got a 68 should I retest?

[ILCO2]

I think the max units have a hard time keeping officers so they tend to hire alot. At some point the scoring system changed, so I'm not sure what a good score is. When did you test?

[ILCO2]

Anyone else out there who has tested and is waiting for a call? Or has been hired recently and has an opinion on what a good score is and if any facilities are hiring.

[Kyoung]

Score doesn’t matter if the facility desperately needs bodies.

[Ohio CO]

How long does the background process usually take. I feel like I’ve been in this process for ever

[Rmckenz85]

I think they told me 43 or 45 was the cutoff for scoring. Anything in the 60’s is a pretty decent score and I definitely wouldnt retest. Anything higher is even better. I was told every prison in IL needs several people so just try and relax and wait for your call guys. I scored a 66 and illinois river called me a month and a half later with an offer but some guys in my class tested in Jan and some even last Oct so it all depends on your score and what facility you are trying to go to. Out of the 10 people in my class i scored the highest with a 66 so that should give you a better idea on point allocation. I leave the 30th which is Monday for the Academy and they told me they are going to stagger classes so after we’ve been there for 3 weeks they will bring in another class so everyone should be getting a call sooner than later.

[ILCO2]

I got called Sep 19th for Nov 11th academy.

[Kyoung]

Good luck y’all I graduated on the 13
