[ Ссылка ] Police interview questions and answers for the police oral board are what you must master if you seriously want to become a police officer. You need to prepare for the oral board interview. Treat it as an "oral exam". It's the single most important part of the hiring process. The make or break part. No matter how well you do in the other sections, no matter how mentally or physically agile you are, fail this and you fail the whole thing. It'll make the difference between opening a letter that starts "you have been offered..." or "we regret to inform you..."
There are always openings for new police officers but there's also always competition. Sometimes there are hundreds of applicants applying for the few positions available. Preparation will improve your chances, give you a leg up.
The good news is that many of the kinds of interview questions are predictable. It's no secret that they are going to be asking about YOU. And you are an expert, after all, on you. The trick is to organize your thoughts and memories so you come prepared. And not be caught off guard or wrong footed.
Here are some of the common questions you may get asked. Note that the exact wording from panel to panel may differ.
What have you done to prepare yourself for this position?
Why do you want to be a police officer, deputy sheriff, state trooper?
What do you know about our department?
Tell us a little bit about our mission statement
What's the name of our Deputy/Assistant Chief?
Describe a time when you displayed leadership.
What would you say are your strengths and weaknesses?
If you overheard a fellow officer use a racial slur, what would you do?
If you caught your mother speeding, what would you do?
Good luck with your interview. When you are waiting outside the interview room waiting for your name to be called. And your heart is pounding, and your life flashing before your eyes, all your hard preparation work will surely kick in. Your name will be called out, and it will cut through you like a knife. You are led into the interview room, and as you pass through the door, it is as though you are a racehorse where the starting gates have just swung open. And you're off!! And you will be surprised at how well you perform, and how enjoyable the ride was. Good luck to you. May you do well.
