Myrtle Beach PD

Anyone have information on Myrtle Beach PD? Looking for shift schedule, likelihood of overtime, and the hiring process.

Shift schedule is a 12 hr split type schedule. Everyone gets some overtime during the bikeweek/bikefest mid to late May every year. Other than that some limited OT is usually available at the end of the fiscal year in June. Other than that, it is normally pretty limited. There are also some off-duty jobs available in the area. The hiring process is pretty straight forward. A written test. Everyone that passes does the PAT. If you pass the PAT, you are set up with a board interview. Out of town folks usually get the first slots, either that afternoon or the next morning. Once that is done, they will call you back for a Chief's interview it they are interested and you pass the background. Can take a few months. If you have any other questions, just ask either here or send me a PM.

Do they accept laterals from, let's say NYPD?
