OVERVIEW- Application
- Written Test
- Orientation Flight
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.)
Due to the fact that the Written Test is primarily OOC focused, applicants who have previously passed the Written Test on any character within the past three months do not have to complete it again. ))
ORIENTATION FLIGHT
Candidates who successfully pass the written exam will be invited to sit an orientation flight with Aero Bureau personnel to determine if they possess the baseline of necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities for this position. The flights will be booked by the LS County Sheriff depending on the availability of training and examining personnel. The flight may include and is not limited to:- Knowledge and ability of basic radio usage;
- Aircraft maneuvrability basics;
- FLIR Systems Basics (not mandatory);
- General Navigation Knowledge.

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.
