Absolutely. They even asked what vehicles are registered to me and the VIN numbers, what my insurance policies are worth, parent and sibling contact info ( they live on the east coast), all marriage certificates and divorse decrees, mortgage and other loan info, worth vs liabilities, one hand written page essay on how I will benefit from the position; I learned things about myself I didn't know. I still have a digital copy in my gmail.
I did many backgrounds for my agency and didn't have anywhere near that much intel to work with.

30 pages? Holy crap. I have seen 10-15 pages, and that was a nightmare. Just tell yourself that its to your benefit??
Anywhere else catch your fancy up there? The idea of working as a deputy/paramedic for Davis appeals...but their pay doesn't.Comment

Got a call from WVC yesterday; they're starting my background. So; Hello investigator since you're likely to find this post on a google search!
I've enjoyed my time with Davis, but not being a paramedic I'm treated as a second-class employee. You are also correct about the pay. I couldn't afford to do this job without my military retirement. I started full-time here at 38 years old, and already of course, had established a lifestyle and the debt that comes with it. A 21-year old could live on the pay, but not someone starting a second career.Last edited by KenW.; 09-23-2014, 10:00 AM.I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.

Well, that's a good sign, obviously!
I thought having your medic was required to work there? I think I saw Deputy/Medics make like 17/hr to start. Rough, since most of the Valley agencies in AZ start recruit officers at about 25/hour... Its not like medic is as easy to pick up as EMT.Comment

In the Davis SO, you have to be a paramedic to be assigned to patrol, and I'm not one. Therefore, I am condemned to a career of mediocrity unless I leave.I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.

Gotcha, makes sense....Comment

Well... I got turned down. My experience is in investigations and it seems they want patrol experience instead.
