⁠@@saboornasir5164 I have had my SJT written test for correctional officer and passed the exam . Now waiting for the interview. For written test, u don’t need to be worried. Question will be scenario based and answer will be solely depends on ur judgement, based on the scenario. For CSC SJT test, there was 100 question and time limitation was 90 minutes. U will be needed patience and good time management skill. Good luck!

Hey Jeanette do i need to have diploma in police foundation or something? To be eligible for correctional officer job?

[@jeanettecole5993]

To work with the Correctional Service of Canada one only needs a grade 12 or GED diploma. I’m not sure of the requirements that provincial remands require but you could contact their Human Resources department for that information. Jeanette

[@jeanettecole5993]

@@mst4984 I cannot answer that because I do not know what the test will consist of. Would it be possible to contact someone in the agency/organization to get an idea of what to expect? Do you have friends/colleagues that work at the detention centre? If you do not you could enquire with the organization and ask what to expect on the test (length of test, what is on the test, etc). It never hurts to ask for more information so that you know what to expect and by asking for information! Jeanette
