View Full Version : TPD hiring needs

I'm always seeing applicants complaining that TPD has never called them or that they're taking way too long to get hired. But when I talk to recruting they say they're hiring a lot and are looking for qualified applicants. So which is it? Is TPD in need of good qualified/experienced applicants and the people who are constantly complainig on here are the whiners that aren't going to get hired or does it really take 2 years no matter what even for experienced applicants?

TPD is currently hiring certified officers now. We always have but there are more openings right now due to retirements and others that have decided to leave for one reason or another. The process does not take any where near two years to complete. There are a lot of applicants and in the past limited slots available. So someone may have been passed over for a more qualified applicant or scholarship graduates and had to wait. It is pretty much all about timing.

Thanks for the thorough and straight forward answer. I appreciate it.
