Description

This book is a fresh, 21st century look at today's law enforcement hiring process. It gives the reader an idea of what to expect through all phases of the selection process and why the agency is doing what it is doing. Selection techniques have changed over the years. Law enforcement agencies are much more sophisticated and selective because the stakes are so much higher than they have ever been. This book gets you from your first contact with your prospective employer to the last interview. This book provides you with the information you need to understand the process. If you understand the process, you can understand the culture. Moreover, it is a step by step guide to navigating what can be a mysterious and nerve wracking process. Armed with the information this book provides, you are miles ahead of your competition.
