Hello, thought I'd start a little blogg type thing to keep a track of how things are moving along following my decision to join the Police Force. Have applied to Surrey Police in February 2007. Passed the Paper sift shortly thereafter and received an invite to the fitness test in March. Have had the Fitness Assessment in Guildford on April 17th 2007 - Passed. Have been invited to the Assessment Centre (Centrex) at Guildford Uni on the 7th June. So far so good, now getting nervous about the A/C. More soon. Litew8Litew82007-05-04 18:24:57

Has anyone got a list of practice/example questions for the competency based interview? Or anything else that may be useful?

I have finally got in and have been given a start date for Oct 1st Thanks to everyone for their advise and help .....For anyone going through the process at the moment, stay positive if you want it bad enough you will get there.

Hello, Firstly, apologies in advance is this is entirely inappropriate, but I am trying to get some idea of pay scales for a police officer in Northamptonshire. I will be 33 next year, and hope to have my mortgage paid off. Would also like to do something worthwhile (rather than IT). Was thinking that joining the police might be it. Can anyone advise on how much pay is likely to be upon joining? What about after two year? Five years? It is realistically too late to consider it at 33? I know it sounds incredibly mercenary to talk about money before even applying, but I still have a wife and two kids to support

Hi I've just handed my application form into Derbyshire Police. I know there's nothing more i can do now till i hear if i pass the paper sift, but does anyone know how many mistakes you're allowed, or how many marks there is on the application and what is the pass mark? Cheers, Chris
