I applied to the CDCR a few years back and was DQ'd after failing the oral psych.
After stewing a few years and mulling things over, my interest in the field has been reinvigorated.
Apart from the horror stories regarding polygraphs, I always have concerns over the oral psych and how to successfully get through it.
Also, is failing this particular portion in one department a deciding factor with, say getting on with a department outside-of-CA?
Agency-wise, I'm looking into either a rural sheriffs department, highway patrol/state police, or game agency in the four-corners region.
