Not sure why you needed to add the exclamation point.

Are you yelling at us? :confused:

[SnapShawt]

Of course they do. And there's only one reason to ask that question.

Yes, new agencies you apply to will find out that you failed your psych test. I recommend being honest about it.

We do because we dont want to waste time and money on an applicant who has already failed elsewhere and we would fail that person for the same issues.

Yep, not ONLY at the time of application but even years later. We just fired a 4-year officer because we found out that he did not declare failing an application process with a neghboring dept at the same time he applied with us.:eek:

Thanks for not exaggerating and giving me a straight up answer, i really appreciate you not trying to make me feel stupid like some of the other members.

I will be honest but i was wondering if they will just DQ me for failing other psych test. How do ther agencies look at that? Thats what i wanted to know.

Yes sir, at no point did i plan an lying to an agency. I was wondering if i should keep applying becuase i thought that no one would even think about hiring me, sir.

Even if they did not share information, if you didn't plan to lie, then both departments would not need to talk to each other would they? So even if you kept applying that would have no relevance to your question.

You may have meant to ask, "Do Departments have different hiring standards?" Which the answer to that is, Yes, they do.

Smartass..

After reading a few of an applicants posts on this forum, most experienced officers can figure out which point in the application a person failed out of.

(and yes, you may have better luck at another department, although this thread isn't shining a bright light on your future in law enforcement)

I try to show respect to an officer, and i get called a smartass. By calling him sir by no means did i mean it in a disrespecful way. Relax, that response wasnt even aimed at you. thanks for your 2cents
