Watched your video and did some practice with my family before I had my panel interview. Got the call and now have been conditionally hired and have to finish up with medical evaluation, psychology exam, and chiefs meeting. This video was awesome and really helped me out. No question about it I think it really comes down to being prepared before you go into the interview. Without preparing I would of done horrendous
@@jamrockpd thank you my man. You’re the best. I know I have a cousin that is a correctional officer who will be trying to become a police officer soon and I will definitely recommend your vid’s for him to get through the process
Thank you for being yourself in this video. Many other video tend to force you to be someone you are not which is obviously challenging. Your video was definitely a confidence booster! 💪🏻
Congratulations!! 🎊🎉🎈You got this!🙏🏾 as soon as you’re done with the physical exam start applying to an agency and try to get sponsored and hired. Keep me updated!
How do I handle the situation or I’m still currently working at my job I have had for my entire adult life but I want to apply to the sheriffs office as a patrol deputy. This is the reference I want on the application but I still work here so what do I do??
Thank you so much for all the information, I am able to be more prepared due to the all the videos and information you've shared. I appreciate you brother. Stay Bless and Safe.
I took the BAT test in early June. I was told after I had finished that I failed the Graph Literacy exam with a 65 out of 90 and that I would have to retake. I studied for a week and a half, went back and took the test and when I had finished, the lady at the desk told me there had been a computer malfunction and I had actually passed it the first time with an 85.

Hey Bro ! Thanks for the informative video ! You touched on several key points that I was really worried about in my upcoming Oral Board interview. My question to you is, how long do most Oral boards take and are there any other questions I should be concerned about ?
Any where from 35 minutes to an hour depending on how many people are on the panel. I think the questions I covered are the most common question according to several references and feedback from multiple candidates. You’ll may have some random scenarios like “what would you do” type of questions but those are easy, as long as you’re thinking with ethics and morals you will have solid answers.
Best of luck to you bro! I've recently applied for a well-known department in South Florida, and I'm 50! Can you tell us how old is the oldest person in your academy?
Hello Alivin! Best of luck to you as well brother, I’m sure you’re going to do great. It’s really all about consistency and training. The oldest person in my Academy Class is a 43 year old woman and she’s incredible. You can do this man 💪🏾 just don’t be so stuck in your way that it’s hard to teach you or coach you. I’ve seen it where older recruits seem to have “their way” of doing things and only their way. It can’t be like that if you want to be successful. Good luck man! Keep me updated 👍🏾
@@jamrockpd absolutely bro! Thank you for the knowledge and wisdom! I will definitely keep all of that in mind. I've already submitted my application, so it's pretty much a waiting game at this point. It's a little nerve recking, but I stay positive. Keep us updated as well!
@@wallysparx8947 bro, I was told to withdraw from the hiring process due to a small tattoo I have on the back of my neck. The removal process is too long to have made it in this year.
The physical agility’s test isn’t hard. It’s mainly cardio endurance and arm strength based. If you train for about 3 weeks you’ll be more than prepared. I used to run about 2 miles a day to prepare as well.
Jamrock, do you have an email or we can reach out with any questions? I’m a little confused in regards to the specific steps it takes to become a police officer in Florida? And I had a few outside questions regarding for out of state folks. Thanks so much!
The very first thing that you should do is schedule to take the CJBAT test and Physical Agility’s test Once you’ve passed those exams you’ll now be able to enroll yourself into the police academy. You will be go through some internal enrollment processes which should include a psychological evaluation exam and a polygraph test to be eligible to start! Then after you’ve satisfied all of the requirements you’ll be well on your way to starting the academy and just 6 months out from your new career as a police officer 👮♀️ Good luck with the everything!!
Hey that’s okay as far as the application part goes. Most police departments only require a minimum of a high school diploma or to have some college experience. If you have some credits from college and didn’t get to finish that’s still awesome because you’re already ahead of the competition 👌🏾 when you get to the interview just be able to explain why you didn’t finish and you’ll be good to go. Good luck!! 👍🏾
Hey Carlos the Civilian Test is a pre-selection test. Usually done after being your application have been selected. Only some departments do it. Not all, in fact most agencies are going away with it because it’s redundant.
Usually, you can tell based on the expressions of the panel that you did well or not.Then most of the time they’ll tell you that same day by phone call that they’ll like to move forward with you or it could be a day or two. My experience has always been a quick turn-around when it comes to their decision.

@myathletesbody 45 minutes to an hour

Alvin this is awesome I’m 45, and I’m interested as well! I have 1 million questions and I found Jamrocks UA-cam, it’s been helpful.
@@wallysparx8947 bro, I was told to withdraw from the hiring process due to a small tattoo I have on the back of my neck. The removal process is too long to have made it in this year.
I’m waiting for my physical exam which is in the next month I’m super nervous about it!
Hey I hope you did well!! Very excited to hear your experience!
@@jamrockpd Hey! I did well until I got to the obstacle course 😢
@@janaisinclair-bell4021 what happened?
@@Jp43620 you really have to prepare for it. A lot of upper body strength is needed.
I also passed the CJBAT, but the physical agility test hasn't come up yet.
The physical agility’s test isn’t hard. It’s mainly cardio endurance and arm strength based. If you train for about 3 weeks you’ll be more than prepared. I used to run about 2 miles a day to prepare as well.
I’m actually going to do a PAT video to demonstrate what to expect.
@@jamrockpd That would help a lot!
Jamrock, do you have an email or we can reach out with any questions? I’m a little confused in regards to the specific steps it takes to become a police officer in Florida? And I had a few outside questions regarding for out of state folks. Thanks so much!

what if you only went to college for only a short period of time and didn’t finish. should you still put your time in college?
Hey that’s okay as far as the application part goes. Most police departments only require a minimum of a high school diploma or to have some college experience. If you have some credits from college and didn’t get to finish that’s still awesome because you’re already ahead of the competition 👌🏾 when you get to the interview just be able to explain why you didn’t finish and you’ll be good to go. Good luck!! 👍🏾
I got a question. Do I applied for a police department before I take the test or the test first I just want the step because I really want to serve.
Hey! You want to take the test first, then apply for the Police Department.
Is the civilian test you’re referring to the POST test, Police Officer Selection Test?
Hey Carlos the Civilian Test is a pre-selection test. Usually done after being your application have been selected. Only some departments do it. Not all, in fact most agencies are going away with it because it’s redundant.
How do you know you passed the oral interview?
Usually, you can tell based on the expressions of the panel that you did well or not.Then most of the time they’ll tell you that same day by phone call that they’ll like to move forward with you or it could be a day or two. My experience has always been a quick turn-around when it comes to their decision.
Do you have the process in becoming a detention deputy in Pasco county ?
No I don't jay i'm sorry. I'm almost sure it may be similar.
