I had my interview yesterday and I passed. I was told that I received the highest score the Lieutenant has given in his entire career. I was prepared and calm. I followed all your tips in this video. Thanks for setting me up for success. I appreciate this video.

[@merfer6845]

Pls help what did they ask???

[@kaelabailey5741]

Just passed my oral board wanted to pass along helpful Information because I needed it when I was preparing. #1. Tell me about yourself and why you want to work for this department. That starts the interview off, have something short but effective to say here. A few other situational questions involving stress, integrity, deadly force. It is nerve wrecking sitting across from 3 high ranking officers but if you have any life experience use it to your advantage and make it fit the questions.

[@Justthatofficer]

Thanks for sharing Kaela and congrats on passing!

[@Slimrepr]

did you have to answer senario based questions?

[@hectorvazquez9952]

Damn that wasn’t the first question I was asked but I went in with confidence and I think I did ok. Hopefully I’ll hear back, but congratulations and I wish you the best of luck

I have mine this morning && so im nervous 🫤😅

[@launikeohaname8687]

Appreciate you!

[@AdamPasnicki]

Just passed mine today. They were very impressed. Just like you stated.... 1. Tell us about yourself? 2. What motivates your day to day routine? 3. What are your strengths and weaknesses? 4. Where do you see yourself within this organization? 5. What made you choose this Sheriffs office? 6. Are you prepared to take a military-style Police boot camp? They will be yelling and screaming at you and you may get punished for others doing something wrong. 7. What is the biggest obstacle in your life and how did you overcome it. 8. What 1 person from all your jobs do you consider the best leader you have had and why. 9. Explain your work ethic. 10.Why should we chose you? 11. Is there anything you would like to add to the table. My panel was in front of 7 High ranked Sheriff Deputies and 2 HR personnel. The key is to be confident with all your answers and show off the real you!

[@Justthatofficer]

Great work! And thank you for sharing these questions. 💪

I just came back from my Oral Board. I did lots of studying and note taking from others and especially, from you sir! I want to thank you for creating this helpful video. I rehearsed and left the 3 panel officers with a smile plus, we will be in touch soon, after being escorted out the to the doorway. Tell us a little about yourself? This question is the ice breaker to get to know you and set the tone. Weakness, Strengths you are going to get them both. Personal questions are relatively first off, to get to know you. Next the scenario-based questions, or dynamic questions. Study for these, for the most part and get info over the agency you've applied to. Other than that keep calm make them answers short and sweet. Good luck ya'll .

Awesome video, thank you! I have a question about tattoos. I know that many departments (nowadays) are more lenient with tattoos. However, I still want to cover my hand tattoo up with dress gloves. Should I mention it and say that I’m prepared to always cover it up, be it with gloves or make-up or should I just let it be? Thank you! PS. The hand tattoo is a dope looking Pixiu of my days as a Muay Thai fighter ^^.

[@Justthatofficer]

Aye, thank you! Okay, so I would avoid the gloves. You won’t always have gloves on when working. Wear long sleeves and don’t bring up anything about the tattoos unless they ask. Be who you are that’s what they want to see. If they have a problem with tattoos, that’s unfortunate unless they are offensive but it doesn’t sound that way. They will usually bring it up during the interview (probably at the end) if there could be an issue with the tattoos in regards to policy. If so this is when you can mention that you will cover it up while on duty. Otherwise don’t harp on it. Now get out there and crush it! 🤘

@@jazr7997 interview went well he actually asked the more standard questions like you posted. -tell me your strengths and weakness’s -why our department? -whats your long term goal He also asked a tricky question at the end. IF YOU WERE INTERVIEWING US WHAT WOULD BE A QUESTION YOU WOULD ASK? I think it went very well because after the interview he said,”Don’t accept an offer from anyone else until you’ve heard back from us”

[@user-sc8rd9mf6m]

One question but if they asked you , if you'll ever write your mom a ticket what if they asked you why wouldn't you what would be the right answer to tell them ??

Thank you so much! I have my oral board interview on the 28th, and I am practicing with my gf. I will let you know if I pass or fail when I get my results. Wish me the best!

You got this!

[@simonperez7300]

Howd it go

[@vitalsaxon_4230]

@simon perez they didn't ask any question I've seen throughout any of the videos. They were all very weird question. As a matter of fact, I spoke with an officer after the interview, and he said that all of the questions were extremely hypothetical, bizarre, and kind of "stupid". But the interview went well. Unfortunately, I called out of the recruitment process because it was taking too long for me. I passed the Physical, Written, and did the interview. I still had like 3 or 4 more steps until the academy.

Just took my polygraph and oral board! Waiting to see what the verdict is.

[@laloarroyo3022]

what’d they ask on the polygraph?

[@benjaminforman1616]

I have a "informal" interview and to be honest cant find anything to expect, the oral board is down the road and the set dress code is suit and tie, but I think the informal interview a sport coat, dress shirt, tie and khaki will be fine, please help

[@Justthatofficer]

Yes, I think that will look good and professionally for the informal interview. Just be yourself, you got this!

[@user-jg1ep1hv2u]

It threw me off a bit about the part of writing your family member a ticket? That seemed kind of strange to say no.. wouldn’t that be being bias because it’s your mom? I just am skeptical about that answer.

[@Justthatofficer]

It’s an honesty question. You have discretion and don’t have to write everyone a ticket. Even if you don’t like your mother you probably wouldn’t write her the ticket. Just answer honestly and you’ll be fine

[@free_bird4206]

@@Justthatofficer honestly doing 80 in a 25 that seems like a ticket no matter who you are. is that right or do I say no for that on the interview

😂 as a mom, I wouldn’t speed in the first place

i watched so many videos and studied so many questions. none, absolutely none of these questions were on the interview! 😂😂😂 i just did the interview today.

lol! really? what did they ask?

[@jessedelreal6643]

@@Justthatofficer i remember a couple, were scenarios. im applying to a school district police dept. they gave me a couple scenarios of what would i do if this or that happened. they asked me what the difference is between a municipal police dept and a school district dept. at the very end they said to sell my self, why should we hire u basically. thats about the only thing that was in the videos i saw. there was about 15 questions. it was 3 sgts and 2 LTs. I passed tho. thank god

Wait. So if my mom was speeding, isn’t she breaking the law? Why do I not give her a ticket? Please explain

Anybody get the interview with a written exercise? Any ideas? I got one coming and it includes that. Thanks!!
