[FutureRecruit86]

HeY,
I took their PT test on Sat, and was told I will be called next week to set up a interview and begin the process. Im going for Detention Officer as they require you to be BLET certified for deputy. What do you guys think of the dept??? Im from Atlanta so give me some insight.

The MCSO deals with the jails, courts, and civil papers. They have no criminal involvement in any of their duties they carry out. But, if you are going to be a DO, then that really won't matter since it is a non-sworn position. The jails are extremely overcrowded, and is just a tough job to do. I did it for over 3 years and would never do it again. Good luck..............
