Hi, wonder if anyone can help. I have recently just seen an advert for MODP vacancies in my local area in Scotland. Can anyone tell me if the 2 year probation period for Scottish recruits is normally to be served at the usual AWE's down South or can they serve in Scotland. Your assistance would be very much appreciated.

I recently got my rejection letter. Obviously very gutted- especially as I failed what I thought was the easiest part of my day and passed all the hard stuff! I got 62% in total with 100% on oral communication, 71% on race on diversity but a shocking 33% on written communication! . Basically I messed up one of my written excercises and got a D. Its sad to think everything else is bypassed just for one written excercise, but I guess there are high standards to keep. I am just wondering if theres any possibility to use this to do PCSO or transport police instead? Or will I have to re-apply for that seperately in 6 months like for PC? Any advice would be great :) Good l…

Hi.Im new here, im applying to join the MoD police.However my wife was a peace protester 20yrs ago,before i knew her .Never been in trouble since,not even driving offense.Would this be an automatic bar for me?Shall i not get my hopes up??thanks

Hi there, I passed my fitness back in January as the final part of my assessment and now my file is with the vetting dept. So i was wondering whether anyone has been given a starting date for West Mercia that applied within the last 12 months? Also how long does the vetting process take? I phoned the recruitment dept a few weeks ago and they informed me that my file was with vetting but they couldn't give me an idea how long that would take, which is understandable as each file must be different. So i was wondering how long the vetting process for other applicants? I'm just really hoping that i can make the July 6th intake I've been waiting so long! Cheers Si…

When people are told to report any involvement with the police to the recruitment team, does this involve if you call 999 as a victim of a crime?

Well after 3 long weeks of waiting I finally got my Ac results this morning and passed with 63%. I now have a Final Board Interview on the 15th April (not bloody long) and I'm scared stiff! I have to do a 10 minute presentation and although I knew this 2 weeks ago when i was provisionally booked for my interview, I didn't know what they wanted me to do one on. Now I know I am really panicing as it's totally thrown me and I don't know where or how to start. I don't know if I'm allowed to say on here what they want me to do it on but has anyone got any tips on presentations etc as i have never done one before. Cheers folks, Hope to hear from you soon Callie

Hi all, just wanted to say Hi. I am at the start of the recruitment process for Fife and would appreciate any tips or help! I have successfully completed the SET and now have my Initial Interview 12th May and am very very very nervous! How did you all find it?

I had my application with the Met back in April last year, then I had my assessment in November. I failed to get in by 4% (got 56%, required 60%.) I then had the choice of either joining Sussex Police (I live in Brighton) or Thames Valley Police. I'm 19 years old and decided to get to grip with things down here in Sussex and then maybe transfer to a busier area in the future after I felt more established. I went to a Sussex event back in February, filled in my application form, sent that in. Received all my medical documents, filled them in and sent them back. Now I have my fitness test on the 30th of this month. I phoned up today to ask a question about how my placement …

For anyone that is interested, I've heard off a couple of people, that recruitment is due to open again (or might have already) However its for only 80 places.

Hi, I'm a 17 year old currently studying A Levels. I am extremly interested in joining the police force once I'm of age and finish my A Levels, but despite searching the internet I can't find information on the training that you need and what stages you need to go through to get into the force. If anyone has a link to website with information, or any information they could give me it would be apreciated. Thanks.
