Once your paperwork is submitted, you will be contacted to schedule a test date/time. On the test day, you MUST bring proper identification (State or Federal Government ID/DL) with you. You may wear your gym clothes to the test.
Each of the following steps must be successfully completed prior to your appointment as a PoliceOfficer:
Entrance Examination
The entrance examination is a four-part examination, which consists of reading comprehension, basic arithmetic, spelling/grammar and writing skills. A score of 70 or higher in each section must be achieved in order to pass the examination and proceed in the process.
Study guides for the examination are available. The cost for the study guide is $20.00. The written exam covers mathematical reasoning, writing ability, situational judgment/human relations and reasoning/analyzing. You must score 70% or above to pass. ****************************************************
Physical Assessment
The physical assessment attempts to measure whether the applicant is fit for duty as a policeofficer. Applicants who pass the written exam will move forward to the fitness test, which consists of the following:
* 1.5 mile run within 15:26
* 300 meter run within 62 seconds

The applicant will be interviewed in the areas of their general background, current and past employment, prior police experience, criminal history, traffic record and military service. The applicant is also given situational reasoning scenarios and evaluated on those responses. During this interview, the applicant is evaluated in the areas of professionalism, dependability, reaction to pressure and situational reasoning ability, along with interpersonal and oral communication.
Polygraph Examination
The department's polygraph examiner is licensed by the state and conducts the examinations within the state guidelines. The results of the examinations will be regularly reviewed to ensure that polygraph procedures are fair, impartial and that all applicants are given adequate opportunity to resolve areas of deception through every reasonable means. The ultimate decision to employ remains with the Chief of Police.

The applicant is assessed for their psychological suitability for law enforcement work. The applicant is evaluated for hypersensitivity, impulsiveness, and frustration tolerance, as well as attributes such as achievement, flexibility, sensitivity, maturity, intelligence, somatic concerns, mood, social adjustment, anxiety, emotional control, dominance, moral-ethical behavior, impression formation and attitudes.

A policeofficer is responsible for preservation of the public peace, the protection of life, liberty, and property, the prevention of crime, the arrest and prosecution of violators of State Law and City Ordinances. The work environment includes vehicle patrol and in some instances foot patrol. Therefore, applicants are evaluated for their ability to perform the specific job requirements, specifically: lifting, running, bending, and walking. Hearing and eyesight are also tested.
