mesquite tx

[dfwblue]

first of all 2/16 hours shift were not something normal that people agree on. in my own and other peolpe opinion it was not safe to work that schedule and it was the right choice to resign. about going to EOC i had some issues i did not tell you about them with the chief. for your knowledge i received from the same company diplomat of awards for doing a good job with them.

No one claimed that you did not do a good work at your previous employer. I brought that up to show that you probably burned a bridge, which in turn probably burned you. As far as your issues with the Chief, well it appears those were unfounded according to the outcome of the trial you brought up.

about polygraph i stated that i passed two of them including with mesquite because i have nothing to hide even if the examiner tells you that you lied in some questions.and i never said that they got me in a question because i m fully honest and have nothing to hide.

This was my mistake. I read a post wrong and I apologize.

third i never slamed mesquite. i said that i had bad experience with them such as passing everything and they disqualified me with no reason. and i believe same as for applicants have to be honest and tell everything to the background investigator they should at list give you a call or be more professionel about it.

Sorry, but in my personal opinion....going to a public board and making unfounded accusations about how a department handled a hiring process is slamming them.

i never said that mesquite pd are racist against minority applicants. i said that because they never told me why i was disqualified probably they chose somebody else from the majority whites and i was the only minority.
i m pretty sure that the background never started and i will say it again that i did the mistake to go and apply there (my own opinion).

"in the end i told to myself that i did a mistake to apply with small department being minority" Not sure how you can say that your statemnet does not imply that a minority has a less of a chance getting hired with a small department......racism.

i guaranty you i have no syndrome.
plus you don' t know my background neither my education so don't judge me.
summary mesquite is a very highly paid department with good officers but the investigator who dealt with me was not at all professionel.
and without bragging about myself i m over qualified for mesquite and happy i was disqualified.
thanks

The syndrome part was in reference to your posts which had hints of "everyone against me" in them. I have not questioned your education or your background. I pointed out why you may not be an attractive candidate to PD's. I am glad you have a high opinion of yourself, but I doubt you are "over qualified" for Mesquite. If your over qualification is in reference to your education, then you will learn, if you make it into this line of work, that there is much more than a degree to this job.

Gee, I wonder what kind of education is needed to in order to type like that?

matto, i am so sorry that my typing is full of mistakes but the problem is not my education, but the problem is my old keyboard. i need new one and just to let you know that my education level is probably higher than yours with all respect of your age or experience. be sure that next time i will be more carefull. thanks

DFWBLUE: i never wanted to go to EOC. a friend of mine took me there and we filled up a report and i never taught we will have a trial, and i did not care. it was a 3 ways phone trial. i never been in courts and have no idea that it was a serious trial thats why i did not take it seriously. i lost because i did not have enough proofs and i was not prepared for it.

and i m very sorry to be misunderstood about slaming mesquite. it was my experience and i had an opinion about it. if you don't agree with my opinion that is ok.

like i said i was the only minority there and the background inv. told me that if i get hired i will be one of the few minority in the depatment and he told me lot of other things i felt that he would not ask a white police officer for.
and again i m not saying that i was disqualified because i was minority but i m saying it will be better for me to apply with bigger department. and sevral people told me the same thing. because now every department i apply with will ask me why i was disqualified and i have no clue what to tell them. thats why it was my opinion of saying i did the mistake to apply with mesquite.

i m sorry for being misunderstood, and my typing mistakes are from a used dirty keyboard which i need to replace. i appreciate you replying and typing your opinion. thanks

Over qualified!!!!!!!!!!

You ever put on a Badge and Gun?

bikecop136: By saying I was overqualified I meant education wise. With all the respect having a gun and a badge does not mean you can be overqualified. As a rental cop I do have a badge and a gun but still I went and got more education to become better candidate to choose from. I did not applied with a high school diploma or GED. I wanted to be better educated before I apply for a job.
And when I m saying that I m overqualified I meant with my high education and my knowledge of four languages which is rare. Experience also is a good thing to have but just go back few years ago and think what did you have before earning this experience.

thanks

Personally, I would take experience over education any day for this career. I am not knocking your education or suggesting that education is a bad thing, but you will not find the answers to this job in books. You may want to find a department that puts more emphasis on education (one that requires a 4 year degree, of course I am assuming that you have at least that).

[mansouri1945]

why are you posting under two different names. you were banned once already.

TPO: I m posting under two different names because I was banned, that is correct, but it was just a mistake from my part. I responded in a forum I should not be responding in and i was banned. I talked to the people who are responsible for this forum and I explained to them that it was a mistake. I had to open another one to be able to reply for you guys.

yes, i agree with you and nobody was born with an experience.

Your knowledge of four languages will not "overqualify" you (it should have benefitted you), nor would a bachelor's or even a master's degree.

I became a cop in a nearby jurisdiction to Mesquite many years ago with a bachelor's degree. At that time, I was one of the few cops with a degree. Nowadays, college degrees are fairly common.

Something else was amiss.

....that's what I was thinking. Damn. Maybe I shouldn't finish my degree!

[jwise]

Holy crap, is this guy for real? You are not a natural English speaker, and it shows in your use of the English language. Your grammar (as well as spelling) is weak.

Mesquite is one tough department to get hired onto. A candidate that passes all the boards and background investigations of a dozen departments could still fail Mesquite's.

You're not overqualified. A 10yr veteran who is a Police Lt at another department would be "overqualified." You are "mis-qualified." Or simply, a bad fit.

Mesquite does not have a language requirement, so the language skills would not make you "overqualified", merely "an asset."

What's your "high education?" MBA? MA? JD?

[bikecop136]

Jwise,

This is another wanna be that does not know what the heck Police life is all about. I have seen him stir up a bunch of mess in other threads in other states. He cant get along with Sworn Officers on a website. You think he can get along with Officers on the street........... Pahahahahahahaha

Speaking 4 languages and a degree is nice, it shows you have done something with your life. But ill tell you, when the gun comes out, he doesnt pick the one that has more education, he picks the blue uniform and badge.
