Miami Police Current & Future Applicants

[Unregistered]

I too applied with MDPD in feb 2015. And I did receive the email assigning a BI to my file. They're just slow stepping and have a lot of files to work on. The city of Miami has been the fastest process I've been through. Yet, getting hired for the police is a long process, so even the fastest one can still take about 4-8 months.

To all the upcoming applicants, the advise that I have for you is to join some type of cross fit program while you are going through the process. Trust me, it will help once you make it through the process. The academy is no joke at all. Just watch the Facebook video of PAC 117 and 118 so you can get a small sample of what you will ordure. Again, I advise you to join cross fit and do your push-ups, sit-ups, swats etc. Unfortunately, I was not prepared and did not make it through. Good luck.

"what you will ordure" LOL

Don't do too much cross fit guys, preserve your brain!

Family and Friends only need to apply... I'm in the process still, no call, no email, no update. Yet, my neighbor who has friends in the department is starting the academy this week and applied the same time as I did. What a joke!

That's because you aren't Cuban or Haitian enough.

My recommendation is to keep on exercising and do a lot of cross-fit type of workout. This will help you with the intense workout during the academy once you make it in.

Hone in on the Bill of Rights; especially the Fourth, as most, if not all police contacts-stops are seizures and must be consistent with the Fourth Amendment "Reasonableness Standard." Get to know FSS 901.151, The Florida Stop and Frisk Law by rote. Also, learn the difference between "Reasonable Suspicion" and "Probable cause."
