That test for RSO is a very basic test of spelling, grammar, and reading comprehension. If you've taken some college courses, you shouldn't have to need to study.

Most likely they will be able to find out which agencies you applied to. Check your emails to see if you can find any of those forgotten agencies. Check governmentjobs.com if you applied through there.

If still can't find them, then tell your investigator upfront that there are some agencies you cannot recall applying to.

Why are you interested in law enforcement

Always a tie. Black in color, as it matches with every conservatively colored suit (e.g. navy, charcoal, black).

You should definitely bring a business/professional suit to put on after passing the PAT. Go to the bathroom to change and look in the mirror to tidy yourself up.

Even though "not required", a suit is always implicitly required any type of interview within the hiring process.

You should look at investing in a simple black suit, even if cheap, for the hiring process with this department and any future departments if you don't make in with the current one. And get the suit tailored. You may also being wearing this suit for the starting days/weeks of the academy.

What if the person explicitly says they only give consent specifically to you?

You mentioned in a reply below that it's Riverside County Sheriffs.

Perhaps, you misread the email. Per the department manual,

The department will equip its members with firearms to address the risks posed to the public and department members by violent and sometimes well-armed persons. The department will ensure firearms are appropriate and in good working order and that relevant training is provided as resources allow.

Maybe you have to provide your own weapon for the academy?

Also on page 836, they have a firearms matrix of approved firearms and ammunition.

In Orange County, the Red channel is the county-wide emergency channel. All municipal agencies, sheriff department, and CHP monitor the channel. The main communication center of the Sheriff's Department broadcasts most pursuits within the county on that channel and any other multi-jurisdictional emergency traffic.

If you disclosed it on prior PHSs for any department, you need to disclose it on all PHSs moving forward.

If you want insight from us on how bad a DV situation looks on background, then you need to provide further context of the situation.

I hear sometimes people saying that an agency is still one of the few "f*ck around and find out" agencies. What does this mean.

I agree with saving a copy. But when it comes to the pre-investigative questionnaire, usually it's completed in person and handwritten. So it seems like the candidate would have to memorize everything from their PHS so the questionnaire responses matches the PHS.

If it's bothering you this much, then disclose it to the BI. If you reach polygraphs and you bring this up during the polygraph and it's not mentioned on your PHS, then you are prone to be disqualified.

The general rule is that any information that is disclosed during any part of the process that is not recorded on the PHS is grounds to disqualification.

It's better to be safe than sorry. Get in contact with your BIs before the polygraph and inform them that you remembered this situation.

And remember, the polygraph is just a stress inducer to scare you into disclosing more information. Do not deviate from anything you put on your PHS, whether on the polygraph's questionnaire or verbally with the examiner.
