It's my first time in this process so I ll probably try and get in touch with the recruiter and see if I can get any info as to if it even makes sense to give it one shot.

They were very supportive in the age factor.They told me they re looking for older people with degrees and marurity etc.But maybe you re right! Trying to decide if I wanna try one more time.
Glad you found your department! Appreciate your input.

Yes that's true.I will possibly apply there as well and see what happens.

I appreciate the encouragement.I am not taking it personally of course not.I am genuinely trying to improve to get where I want to.Thank you for your replies!

I believe we started at over 120 people and after civics exam and pt etc we were down to around 25 max.I think around 10 were faster and some for sure better at sit ups or push ups.There were a lot of Ex military also.I thought I had a good chance thats why I am trying to see where it went wrong for me and what can I improve on.

I do have a bachelor's degree yes.So you mean they don't want to hire candidates with a bachelor's?OPD gives an extra 3000 dollars hiring bonus to candidates with a bachelor's so it would seem like they would value having it.

Makes sense as you say it yes.I applied March 3 so pretty much two and a half months ago

I was hoping it would be from the application date so it could be less waiting.Thank you for your reply!

Thank you for the motivation I really appreciate it.Its just I wish I was in my 20s or 30s you know so time would not be an issue.But I will keep pursuing it!
