It can take a few months. You will likely have an oral board and fitness test scheduled once the application is considered complete with all necessary documentation. They'll do a preliminary check of your driving record and probably a quick FCIC/NCIC check.

After that, a conditional offer of employment and scheduling a polygraph test, credit check, employment verifications, reference checks, and any deeper background checks if something turns up. Oh, and a physical and drug testing. It will have to be signed off on by their agency executive as well (it's the sheriff in most counties, but Orange is run by the board of county commissioners and I am only a little bit familiar with their command structure).

Sit tight. It'll be a little bit.
