If it says business attire, best to be so from at least the waist up if it's something which is done via live feed. To be safe, just wear the whole business attire get up.

If you have New York time you can attempt to buy that time back into the SPRS system but I'm not sure if it's something you can do. I spent 2.5 years in NYC before coming to NJ and I don't have credit for that time. I'm in the PFRS system however. See this link: https://www.state.nj.us/treasury/pen...s/sprsbook.pdf

For the NJSP you WILL be going to a full academy. There is NO abbreviated academy for previous in state or out of state experience.

It's all a matter of opinion. It's hard to say that one agency is objectively "better" than another; better pay, more opportunities, tougher training, yes but overall better, that's a tough one. For example some people would love the opportunity to work anywhere in the state, others hate it and want to stay close to home. Some people love the formal, paramilitary structure others can't stand it, etc.
