How to Pass the Police Oral Board Interview (Without Breaking a Sweat)

[@katew9188]

Update for anyone who’d like to know. Currently 8 days away from graduation. It’s been a fun ride. 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???

[@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!

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.

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 .

Great video, one question for now: Why would I not write my mother a ticket if she was being a hazard to herself and the community that I have given an oath to protect? My initial response was yes, I would write my mother a ticket if she was going 80 mph in a 25 mph speed zone. I would think that’s a school or work zone and that’s insanely dangerous, right? Mind you my mother is about 80 years of age and not a speedster, but poor eyesight, so super dangerous for her to speed. So please help me understand the reasoning by the “no” to giving her a ticket. Also, isn’t that a felony?

[@Justthatofficer]

Definitely not a felony. It’s an honesty question as most people wouldn’t write their own mother a ticket unless they disliked her for some reason. If it was something extremely dangerous, well that can change the situation. They are looking for honesty here not the answer you think they want to hear. In the end yes and no are both correct as long as you have good reason to back up each answer.

@@Justthatofficer I love my mom, just not gonna facilitate being crazy lol

[@jacobfrost5461]

You should absolutely right your mom or anyone else a ticket for going 80 in a 25. If you say no that shows your bias. 80 in a 25 is extremely reckless and could easily result in the death of a bystander.

[@Giambis]

Bias is negated due to the allowance of discretion by police. I’m not a police officer, I am a prosecutor but if I choose to write you a ticket for one thing and let 25 other people go for the same thing that you did it is 100% legal and I do not have to explain why I they did it. I was a prosecutor when I started doing this for a Municiple Court and during July 4 one year a single person received a fireworks ticket as about 400 other people were let go. This guy got the ticket because he was an @$$hole and was mouthy to the officer . He paid for a $700 lawyer to drop the $500 ticket and fight in court and he still lost. Determining “bias” is for the courts , not for your opinion being a member of the public.

@@Justthatofficer just found out I passed my oral board interview and now have an interview with the chief of the department. You have a vid for that? 😅

[@Justthatofficer]

@@hardcorenacho1020 😆 unfortunately no, but just be yourself. It’s always intimidating; however, he started right where you are now. You got this man! It’s great you’re onto this step.

@@hardcorenacho1020 I met with the Chief and he asked me: Are you sure you want to be a police officer? Tell me what do you know about our department? Also make sure you do your research on the department you’re applying to. Good luck😊

[@hardcorenacho1020]

@@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”

This helped so much thank you👍

[@AngelHernandez-h2c]

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 ??

[@lakatoslakatos4873]

So answer should be no? For not giving ticket to your mom ? Also how about the fellow officer ?

[@Justthatofficer]

Correct you should answer no or have a good reason why you would. Report to immediate supervisor

[@ericadams805]

So can anyone explain why you wouldn’t give your mom a ticket? It doesn’t really make sense, I thought he was joking by saying no but I haven’t seen anyone else say anything about it.

[@hmongsoulz955]

I'm really nervous. I have an interview next week Wednesdays and not sure what kinds of questions they may want. They did give a generalized idea of what questions they maybe going to be asking. Luckily, I have military background, but not sure how far that will go for them to want to pick me.

[@wildone505]

another great advice is, if you ever get turn down for the law enforcement job. just start your own police department... just ask drummy.

[@Justthatofficer]

There ya go lol
