Just got back from the interview holy paperwork it was so informal i mean i went through the process in 02 when i was a co with the county and it was hard but i guess bop is different they are hurting for officers here in ny otisville they said they will call me as early as next tues for the physical and the academy starts june22 hopefully i'm there!
It's not exactly an academy. It is Institutional Familiarisation (IF). You will basically sit around for two weeks whilst people from the institution over over the basics, and I mean basics, of the institution and the job. Then you will be thrown to the wolves to start working.
Within three months you should go to Glynco for a three-week vacation, I mean training course. Pay close attention to the post orders and do not sign them until you understand everything in them. There is a different set for each post.
Ask plenty of questions, but always ask more than one person. Many Senior Officers don't really know what the rules are and they are not on probation. Even if you are involved in an incident where a senior officer is involved, you will be terminated and he will not.
Be careful.
Noli nothis permittere te terere.
Now i have my physical on tues let's see what happens next? I'm also taking nyc doc in aug i'm torn between the two i guess i will take bop and then see how it works out!
