Regarding the question "Think of a situation when you have shown respect for someone who had an important aspect ( e.g a deep rooted moral or religious belief ) of their lifestyle that differed significantly from your own. Im currently useing a answer of when i've dealt with a muslim family who came into my shop. Today, a partially deaf and blind man came into the shop. It was difficult dealing with him, but i feel i done a good job. Could i use this scenario for this question or, should i stick wth my original answer ? Any advice would be great.

Hello, I'm looking to transfer to Northants from West Mids. They're going through major restructure and getting rid of acting. There's no sign of any board. I'm Part 1 and 2 qualified. What are the prospects for PC to Sgt promotion? I'm also looking at Northants due to the area. It's closer to home. Cheers Nibbler

I am looking to return to Herts from TVP and was wondering if there are any Herts officers who work either Central or Eastern area. I was working in Western area for 1 year. if my application was successful I am looking to ask HR to consider me working either the above two areas. I would like to know what is like working in Stevenage or Hatfield as I am looking for a busy and challenging town. I do understand i will have to work where ever they need me. Regards, Daybo

I have an reprimand from when I was 16 for battery. Planning on applying for Cleveland Police in 2010 or 2012. Depending on my current job situation. Just wondering if this would stop me from getting into the Police or even as PCSO! Kind regards to all,

Regards, I do apologise if this has been posted before - I am not to tech savvy with discussion forums. (please post relevant thread links if it has) I am just enquiring about the MOD Police (I would like to join this service), is anyone here a employee? Can you explain a bit more about their role and typical example of their duties? I have been asking around police officers and some ex armed forces member who just describe them as "security guards" doing a guarding job. Is this true?

Finally passed vetting, found out from the Shared Recruitment Service that I have my final interview this Thursday (14th) with L&B! I've done a lot of resarch and kept up to date with the local and national news. I have a got idea what i'll be facing but anyone got some last minute tips? Also, to the Edinburgh/L&B population out there, how long does it take to get to Fettes from Waverly station in a taxi.... lol Thanks for any info

Hi Im looking to apply as a police officer in the near future. I have already applied for the role of PCSO, but was rejected. I would like to know what are the questions in the PC application form ? Any help would be great. Thanks

Anybody going for the upcoming applications? I will be, although will be a trek from mid-Lancashire.

Just having a browse so I expect I will have more questions later but Why only 3 years of employment history? I was expecting 5 at least! (not that am not happy about ir ;-) ) Also why is the family part crossed out? Is everybody elses like that? Any ideas what I should but for my grades? I know I have 8 GCSE's D-G grades with D's in English & science but I have no certificates to proove that as I have lost them. Should I leave it blank or fill that in explaining I have lost them? Sigh, god I wished I'd paid attention at school now!

Hi there new to the forum, Ive recently decided that the Career route I would like to go down is as a Police Officer(If only it was as easy as just saying thats what you are going to do ). Im currently a Postman and have been for the last three years which I enjoy but its to repetitive and being only 25years of age I want something that is different day in day out but also challenging and exciting, for me a Police officer ticks all the right boxes. At the moment I understand they arent recruiting in the West Mids/Warwickshire at the moment but when they do I will be applying, My only concern is the tattoos I have. I have a three quarter sleeve tattoo on my left arm, dau…

Where do the Lincs recruits do the 17 week theory stage of the Initial Police Learning and Development Programme? (Don't know where the other half of the post title has gone either!!!)

Hi All, I've finally made it through all the applications, tests, waiting, theory training and practical assessments and am starting my first TPT patrol as a probationer tomorrow (Sunday) night. Does anyone have any last-minute advice for me? I've met my tutor and I've (briefly) seen round the nick so I (kinda) know where I'm going when I get there. Is there anyone you'd suggest I go and see as soon as I walk in or should I just wait for my tutor to take the lead? What kit (apart from issued) is vital on the 1st day. I've got a mini torch clipped to my stab-vest so I can see what I'm writing and I've got thick socks. Anything else? Is there anything specifically about…

I have just received a letter informing me that my application to the specials has been withdrawn. I have tired calling them and they have told me they cant give me any details or appeal The only problem i can think of is my Father. I dont have any contact with him and know he has been in trouble with the police for numerous offences (I dont know for what). Is there anyway i can appeal or is there no way i can get around this? Id hate to think that because of my father i cant join. Especially when i have zero contact with him for over 10 years (Last time i saw him i was 7) and have never commited an offence myself. Speaking to my mum he has been in trouble wit…
