Hi,
I took the NYPD entrance exam about 2 years ago, scored a 97 on it. about a month or two ago they finally get back to me and want me to proceed with the hiring process, so i submit my paperwork/life story, etc. I guess everything went OK wtih that because I just received notice that they want me to report for interviews/testing, etc in about 3 weeks. Usually I would be thrilled. Only problem is, about a year ago I moved to Taiwan to work as an English teacher for a while and I don't think I can make it back in timei.....don't really have the time or money right now.
Do you think it'd be possible for me to either delay coming back for the interviews/screening process until closer to December? From what I've been told I am being evaluated for an academy class set to begin in February. Would it be more likely that I'd have wait until the next academy class to start? Would I just be dropped from consideration altogether?
Any advice appreciated....particularly any pro's/con's of this I mgiht be missing.
Thanks
