I am contemplating a career in law enforcement. I just started my research about a month ago and have decided to move forward. I downloaded the "personal history" form and was amazed at its length. 4 main questions I have for any resident leo's:
1)How in depth is the background check? (I don't know if I can remember everywhere I lived since I was 18)
2)Right out of college - must have had 18-20 jobs in 2 years time- is that a disqualifier? Hell I don't even know if I can remember them all. (Currently been with the same company almost 10 yrs though)
3) How difficult is it for a normal citizen to get on with a police department with no previous leo experience?
4)Anything an individual can do to better their chances of getting on with department?
