Looking Into A Law Enforcement Career-New To The Forum

[Guest]

Hey everyone, new to the site just wanted to say hello. My names Andrew, recently graduated from Iona College with a Criminal Justice degree. I am looking into law enforcement as a career but over this summer took up an EMT -B class, in Irvington,NY. I also had done an internship at the Westchester County Police which was absolutely awesome, got to work in the CAU. Not quite sure what is on this site yet but I will search and find out. I am ultimately looking for career information here, is there a spot where upcoming police exams can be seen? I am looking to get the ball rolling in my career efforts as well as meet some nice people and some possible networking.

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

Welcome.

The next County exam should be in the fall of 2012. Mount Vernon gives exams every two years or so. Try taking an NYPD exam also.

Yeah thats right, 2012. I believe all the big towns like New Rochelle, Where I live, and Mt. Vernon, Yonkers, White Plains all do them every 2 years.

Not too sure about the towns and villages that are not covered by county.

Welcome to EMTBravo.

All the towns and villages plus the cities of Rye and Peekskill are covered by the County Civil Service examination for Police Officer. The four "big" cities, Yonkers, New Rochelle, White Plains and Mount Vernon offer their own exams on their own schedule.

Here are some links to the respective jurisdictions' civil service offices. When in doubt, call them and find out when exams are being offered. The last thing you want to do is miss an exam because of a passed filing deadline or other restriction.

Good luck.

Suffolk county PD is accepting applications for upcoming test. 100.00 fee though! The more tests you take the better off you will be. Practice makes perfect. I used to travel all over to take test state to state. Might take you years to get on. Time will pass and then hopefully all of a sudden you will be have numerous depts calling you at once and then the ball will be in your court.
