Los Santos County Sheriff's Department
Deputy Sheriff Trainee

.
Hiring Process
  • DISQUALIFICATION
    The background questions in the Application are utilized to ensure candidates meet the standards of the Los Santos County Sheriff's Department. Candidates who fail any background question(s) will be disqualified from all Los Santos County Sheriff's Department examinations for which they applied, and will have to wait until the next recruitment at minimum to reapply or three weeks from the date of denial if 'open continuous' is ongoing.

    OVERVIEW
    • Application
    • Written Test
    • Academy Training
    • Final Examination
    WRITTEN TEST (WT)
    Candidates who pass the Application will be brought over to one of the Department's facilities to take part in an examination session among other candidates. Passing the written test may be your first step to becoming a member of the Los Santos County Sheriff's Department. The test consists of questions designed to measure your reading, writing, and reasoning skills. These basic skills are essential for success in the Sheriff's Academy and on the job. Candidates will be allowed one (1) opportunity to pass the Written Test. If a candidate does not pass the WT, the candidate must wait three (3) weeks before he/she can reapply.

    The written test requires you to write an essay in response to a general subject question. The essay will be evaluated based on your written communication skill and demonstrated effectiveness in judgment and decision-making and behavioral flexibility. There is no right or wrong answer to the question. Each candidate's response will be unique to that candidate, based on his or her life experiences.

    Candidates are not successful in the Essay for numerous reasons, including the following:
    • Using poor examples that fail to showcase their abilities and potential
    • Failure to provide enough details that would make the essays clear and easier to understand
    • Failure to stay on topic (i.e. rambling, too much detail, or irrelevant information)
    • Failure to provide all information asked for in the essay questions (i.e. did not completely answer the questions)
    • Lacks adequate written communication skills (i.e. English usage, grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc.)
    (( The Written test consists of a series of OOC scenario-based questions. This step includes and focuses on a rigorous OOC mindset test used to establish the candidate's motive in joining the faction and their mannerisms/style of role-play. As our faction's goal is to provide an environment conducive to good role-play for all players, players who have the wrong mindset will be weeded out through this questionnaire. Candidates receive a private message (PM) on these forums with instructions on how to complete this step. ))


    ACADEMY TRAINING
    The Sheriff's Academy is a twenty (22) week training program held at the Eugene Biskarrat Regional Training Center. Classes are conducted Monday through Friday and some weekends and holidays. The Academy days are generally two and one-half hours long and may be conducted in shifts. Throughout the academy program, recruits will also participate in regular physical training. Knowledge, skill, and task competence will be assessed.

    (( In-game academies are on weekend days. One session favors a North American timezone while the other favors an European timezone. From a realism perspective, all applicants would undergo a rigorous 22-week long process at the Eugene Biskarrat Regional Training Center. However, for roleplay purposes, this is condensed into a one-time few hours long session. ))

    Final Examination
    At the end of their Sheriff's training, all recruits will sit for their final examination. This final examination tests recruits on numerous subjects concerning law enforcement, including but not limited to: case and common law, law enforcement procedures, Department policy and procedure, first aid and CPR, and more. Upon successfully passing the final examination, recruits will be appointed to the Department as Deputy Sheriffs and assigned to one of the many jail facilities before moving onto patrol school and starting the Field Training Program within their patrol assignment.

DISQUALIFICATION
There are very few automatic bases for rejection. Even issues of prior misconduct, such as prior illegal drug use, driving under the influence, theft, or even arrest or conviction are usually not, in and of themselves, automatically disqualifying. However, deliberate misstatements or omissions can and often will result in your application being rejected, regardless of the nature or reason for the misstatements/omissions. In fact, the number one reason individuals "fail" background investigations is because they deliberately withhold or misrepresent job-relevant information from their prospective employer.

BOTTOM LINE: You are responsible for providing complete, accurate, and truthful responses.
