detention deputy

Hello members of Monroe sheriffs office..

About 3 Weeks ago.. I applied for the detention deputy trainee position. After doing so, I received in email telling me to take the fbat for corrections and got a 92. The email also said I would be scheduled for a interview soon after. I haven't received a call yet from Charles slebodnick (sent the email). My question is, should I do something to make my application stand out more than others and get the interview.. I'm a 22 yo male, I have an AA in criminal justice and i'm still in school in Miami. I've never been arrested in my life... I was thinking maybe taking all of my info in person to the HR department and meet face to face. Any tips?? All help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

First things first, Calm down. Relax.

These applications take a LONG time to process. The system is set up in a way that the agency knows how many people a year they will hire, give or take a few for retirement and or people who move on.

The process alone can take up to a YEAR, so be patient. DO NOT HOUND HR, or anyone for the matter, or you will just further delay the process.

If you meet the standards and qualifications, you will hired when a position is available.

Don't lie, don't be pushy.

Run away as fast as you can. Try BSO or PBSO, you will make a boat load of money there.

Thank you for the response.. I did apply for bso.. I will go to the first agency to contact me and give me the opportunity. Just trying to get my foot in the door.

Be careful with what you wish for...

By the way, the email he sent me said that the corrections academy will begin in September. My friend applied about 2 weeks before I did and he was called for an interview scheduled for yesterday 5/30. (He has a connection inside) I don't. Hope I get called for an interview soon.
