Wow! No losses after week one? I'm shocked.

Do I get to learn phrases like:

"Could you take that out of the wallet please?"

or

"Step over to the cruiser."

Not trying to start a pissing match...but can anyone tell me how much affirmative action plays into hiring of new officers?

I could not help but notice the bulk of the new hires were african american, hispanic or female......is IMPD bound by affirmative action or are they free to hire those who are best qualified, regardless of race or sex?

I don't mean this to take away from anyone.....I am sure there are qualified people of all ages, race and sex. I am just thinking about how hard it must be for just a normal Joe and how that could be disheartening and cause us to lose some of the best people because they give up hope.

Depends on your definition of bound. If bound and committed are synonymous in your opinion then yes, we are bound. It takes a very high spot on the list of priorities.

Are they required by federal law to hire minorities?

No

 

[CHCRandy]

Thank You Denny.

I was just curious because I bid jobs now and again where they have to hire minority owned companies.....it gets discouraging knowing I bid it for less and lose it because they need to hire minorities so they can keep government funding. Thanks again.

I have not heard anything yet. sorry for late response.

Well I haven't received any communication but yesterday I noticed my status on the application website has changed to "Preliminary Conditional Offer of Employment"

Seems like a good sign!

Good for you Keith, good luck!

Thanks, i was pretty concerned since I thought we shouldve known something by the the 5th of this month.

 

[WestSider]

Had my poly this morning, now just have to wait for my medical and psych to be scheduled.

 

[keiths34]

Any updates?

 

[WestSider]

Had my medical and psych a couple weeks ago. Just more waiting.

In other news, I have had interviews with Plainfield and Speedway and I have an interview with Carmel on Wednesday of this week.

If I had to do it over again I would work for Carmel, Westfield, Fishers, or Hamilton County SO. For area departments they definitely have the best equipment and good pay.
