Chicago Police 2018 / May Exam

[Mikez195]

If you work for county and are sworn deputy what’s the process? I’ve heard people use county to get into CPD? But how?

[southpaw1]

It's a good foundation or stepping stone and your experience will help you on the job I'm sure but you still have to go through the application process, get hired and go through the academy. There's always a handful of County people in each class.

I've mentioned it before we've had Officer's from all over like LAPD, Dallas PD, suburbs and they all have to do it all over again. The nice thing is if you're a sworn PO (from IL) that gets hired you don't have to take the State Exam again. If you're interested go for it!

[Mike_vaughn]

Anyone else still waiting post polygraph?

[cpdbg1821]

Yes. Took my polygraph last October last year. Called my BI a few weeks back. He said he’ll get to me sometime this year.

[Maverick115]

Can someone provide me the email for investigations to get an update on background status? Please and thank you

[shawnnotsean20]

Soooo....I applied in 2016 *gasp* lol... I did IPT (Pased)...Poly, Kentech BI and Home Interview and then NOTHING...For 3 YEARS nothing!!... I’ve moved on took up professional wrestling and work on TV Shows as private security...BUT today....An Officer from CPD BI HR emailed me today saying they have reviewed my 2016 application and that if I’m still interested to contact them ASAP to discuss my application and status!!!.... Anybody else get something like this?...or know someone who did?...or can shed light on what this means?

[Mike_vaughn]

Took my poly 5.5 months ago and nothing. Still waiting.

In the process with LA, but praying for this opportunity! Losing hope however.

[NGUChris]

How’s the process? Going through the expedited process? I’ve debated it

[Mike_vaughn]

I PM’d you. Not sure if it went through.

[jisho1983]

Has anyone who took the May 18th Final Power test received a notice to report for the June academy? I had my psych interview last Saturday and haven't heard anything yet...

[joefelly]

Apologize if you answered this before but can you clarify when you got your FPT notice in the email how far out was it from the date given? If you can just give me a timeline so I can prepare to change address.

[Jaarroyo2]

Hey same here man. Had my psych interview on May 21 and still haven’t heard anything. The lady did tell me I should it would take about 1-2 weeks to receive an email though

[jisho1983]

joefelly I got my FPT email 4/28 and took the FPT 5/18.

[jisho1983]

Can't believe im finally able to say this but I just got my NTR. Feels incredible. To all of you still waiting I say keep going and trust the process. Everything will happen in time.

[Jaarroyo2]

Congrats! Same here bro I received my NTR yesterday too. Best feeling ever

[jisho1983]

Jaarroyo2 Congratulations!!!

[Mike_vaughn]

Anyone still waiting post polygraph? I’m going to call tomorrow for an update.

[Southsidescum88]

joefelly have you received your fpt yet?

[joefelly]

No I haven’t.

[Arroyoe]

Same here man, I’ve been waiting since late November

[Bluelinemission]

Since June 2018 still waiting....

[Jaarroyo2]

southpaw1 thanks a lot bro! Appreciate it!

[southpaw1]

Yeah no problem! You're welcome.

[Nick89!]

I also took the may 18 test and my interview on the 21 but haven't received anything. I was probably in the interview room 15 min top. Should I call HR? It's been exactly 2week

[PoopsMcgee]

Same here man, i just called and they said they are waiting on my medical to be approved, all i can do is just wait a little longer, and hope for the july class

[joefelly]

Got my FPT and Psych written notice. Anyone else here take the written Psych exam on a Sunday?

[rick84]

Congratulations!!!!
When do they have you scheduled for the FPT ?

[Mike_vaughn]

Got my FPT and Psych written notice. Anyone else here take the written Psych exam on a Sunday?

when did you take poly?

[joefelly]

late April of 2019

[Arroyoe]

I am currently waiting for my investigator to call me for the FPT, I’m running out of patience. I took the poly in late November. Should I be concern that it’s taking so long?

[MP US ARMY]

Hey man, have you heard anything back yet?

[ozdsa1]

Anyone looking for a 1BR Apartment in Beverly/Mt Greenwood area send me a message. If you’re not familiar with this area, it’s located in the south side and it’s a nice little area and it’s safe. Moving out of my current place.

[ChiTownDet]

There may still be a bulletin board by the range at the academy. Good place to post it. Lots of suburban kids getting on who like to move into the city on the north side (Wrigleyville, Bucktown, Logan Sq.) and then are amazed they'll be driving to 005 during rush hour for the next 5+ years.
