Idoc

They usually take in state applicants first and after all those lists are exhausted then then go for out of state applicants. It’s relatively easy to get in though.

I am out of state living in Nevada and I was trying to find out some info in regards to Illinois DOC. If anyone has been through the hiring process, how difficult is it to get hired compared to other agencies.

After getting the tattoo request email, how long did it take for them to call you for a job?

[Showtime0811]

Anyone know how long the hiring process is, from the time you submit your application to hire date?? Also, how long is the academy for those already working.

[sarah_rod25]

March 9th is the start of a new class

[xbambiix29]

if anyone is in the academy right now, did you hear when the next class will be?

[MDV31012]

Hey! Yeah I got a call to start the academy in January but then I also got a call from cook county adult probation so I took that instead.

[sarah_rod25]

Did you hear back yet?

[MDV31012]

I received a rejection letter last week. I appealed it so let’s see what happens.

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.
