The Police Application Thread

Still waiting to hear back regarding my fitness.

I'm guessing it'll be after Christmas now, but I passed the assessment centre in October.

In fact, I originally submitted my application form in December 2008!! :eek:

What exactly are you waiting on? I found out on the day that I passed. Did they not tell you?

I had to wait 2 weeks for a letter confirming that I passed the assessment centre.

In that letter it says that they will write to me regarding the dates for the next stages (fitness and medical) "as per force requirements".

I'm taking that to mean "in due course", but waiting around is annoying :(
 
Got my start date for 8th of Feb for Cleveland as a PSCO today, so pleased I can finally get out of Tesco, the two year wait has been well worth it!

Hi all!!

Such a good thread.. so much too read.

I have had a brief read.. I have some questions.


I am currently at college studying my A Levels. I finish May 2010.

After that I either want to join the police.. or take a gap year then join the police.

Can anyone give me some advice on how to apply or what I should be doing from now to next year.

I am from Devon, on their site it says they aint recruiting. : (

Also can you share some details on the process of it all and pay.. like do you get paid for training etc..

Thanks

(bump)

Take a gap year. TBH, if you are still at the stages of enquiring about pay etc, there's a LOT more research you can do just by looking at policecouldyou.co.uk. Honestly, before you apply for this job, look through ukpolice.com and ukpoliceonline.co.uk - start with those forums and look through as much as you can.

If it hasn't been answered on either of them, it's probably not worth knowing ;).

Over the past 2 years i must have spent 100's of hours on those to websites looking through stuff and learning about the Police.
 
Anybody here currently doing/planning to do a degree in Police Studies?

I've applied for a uni which does the course and plan to complete that before attempting to progress further.. atm doing a ND in Uniformd Public Services. ;)

As far as I'm aware in the 2nd year It's mandantory to either become a special or PCSO. Looking forward to it ;)

A visit to their website usually indicates if they are recruiting or not.
