Are you guys hiring? How fast is the process? I'm certified with a few years experience. I have the pre-screener app already, just need to get it in. Thanks, be safe. Oh, I'd prefer to work in Tampa, but willing to go anywhere.

Give it a few months there is slight hiring freeze right now but I see it lifting soon and getting back to normal. You will be very pleased if you get hired here.

The hiring process is one of the hardest I have been through but once your done, your done. SPD, just for the record and depsite all the bad press some of these guys that USED to work here come and throw out, is a great place. Good administration, good working environment and good group of gals and guys on shift.... Detail really rock out too !

Good luck !

since 2002, there have been two chiefs and two deputy chiefs, at least 19 officers that have left SPD Hollywood this includes 3 detectives, all of which left within a month apart, one Captain who was in charge of getting a pension, two sergeants. I cannot remember anymore. Only two of these officers were forced to leave and two be honest with you, they would not have been fired anywhere else but here because there is no union or job security. If I calculated how many left the various reservations during this time it wil probably add up to more than 30. If you go back 5 more years, we can probably add another 30-50. During this time they have had at least 7 chiefs. The average is 4 years anywhere, here about 1.2. Floyd was the exception. This place has always been and will alwasy be, a stepping stone to get somewhere better.

My point is this: why the **** would you want to work here? please enlighten me.
