DQ For Poly "Counter Measures"

[CLO33]

A year ago I was going through backgrounds for a position of Custody Assistant with the LASD. Process was going well until poly test,anyway I was comfortable with the test and knew what to expect seeing as I had passed a poly before for another agency.

Getting to it I was DQ'd for "counter measures", I know what that is but in no way was I trying to deceive the examiner or the test in any form. Are there any LASD people here who can tell me if it would be ok to reapply?

I'm fully aware the test results can come back once I start another application, but I'm positive I can pass another poly. The day I took mine I was just mentally fatigued because of personal problems that arose.

It says DQ may be permanent, I've been told results are only for one year after letter is sent. Any info will be extremely helpful.

Why don't you ask their personnel department? I suspect never if it was for using counter measures, but only the hiring people would know for sure.

Well I know a few guys in LASD, they said just re apply a year from the letter of DQ. But I'll give a call to personnel, just looking for a more concrete answer.

The concrete answer you will get from personnel.

Well I know a few guys in LASD,
THEN WHY ARE YOU ASKING US?
they said just re apply a year from the letter of DQ.
SO BASICALLY YOU ARE GOING TO IGNORE US, NO MATTER WHAT WE SAY
But I'll give a call to personnel, just looking for a more concrete answer.
ISN'T THAT THE ADVICE THE FIRST POST GAVE ANYWAY?

Confusion imbedded.

That's my fault, when I said I knew a few guys then use the word "they" I made it as if I've talked to them. I was actually speaking of info in the letter. Again my apologies for the confusion. I do know some guys but just haven't been able to get in contact.
