Hi all Appologies if this has already been mentioned! But during your training can you specify your choice of team alongside the area you'd like to police?. Just a little thought that entered my head.....Have to pass the recruitment process first lol

I'm currently filling in my police application form in for Derbyshire police and i'm unsure what question 6 is really asking for: <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Q6 Tell us why you have applied to your chosen police force. Is this the sort of thing they are looking for? -After doing research into Derbyshire's police force I understabnd that it is a force which is extremely well trained and funded, aswell as being a force which is made up of a diverse range of people which reflects the community it serves which is something i would like to be a part of. or am i completely on the wrong track? …

Hi All, Just after a little advice. What happens when your in the job and your circumstances change in regards to new partners,lodgers or family members moving in with you. Do you have to tell the police? Are the people vetted? Can you be dismissed for the people who you decide to live with? The reason i ask these questions is because at this stage i live alone but in the future i hope to change this situation. MANY THANKS Pat

Had my assessment centre on 28th june, just found out today that i passed and now i am awaiting my medical, while my security checks are being carried out

Or do they do this to everyone? Nick

Oh my its finally happened, and with some speed i can tell you! I start at Hants on 12th March and boy i cant wait!

Hi I am currently looking into a possible transfer to Devon and Cornwall. I understand that there is a high demand for these posts. I was wondering if anyone has had any experince or advice on this subject? Regards Joanne

Hi! I just passed my A/C (27/06/07) and await the above. Will be gutted if I don't get in now, but not a lot I can do about the background checks / Medical. Can people please give me their opinion on the following please?: On my app form I declared my only 2 driving convictions (now 7 years old) which were investigated and cleared by the force. I genuinely had forgotten about 3 arrests from years ago, where I was never even charged let alone convicted. Besides the fact I had completely forgotten about them as 1 was when I was 17 in 1992, another in 1996 and the last time at least 6 years ago, I don't think I have to declare them as I was never convicted or even ch…
