it is a highly desirable assignment. With increased arrests and statistics, those working on this team have a greater opportunity to shine as officers

8.1 Why should we pick you over other applicants? (( 50 words+ )): Well, I would start off with me having always the thought in my mind - To serve and protect! That helps me give potential to go through dark times and better times in the LSPD. With me, being a driver and also trained to shoot, I do really belive I can handle situations and help other officers to handle theirs, speaking of chases and so on.

Many businesses require their upper-level leadership to have a degree. The police departments are now starting to change to that style of education hiring. The hiring process can be very complicated because the police department wants to ensure that they are hiring the right person that fits their department. Choosing the right applicant for the job is an important decision because of the cost of the equipment, uniforms, training, and probation period because this is an investment in the departments future (Dempsey, & Forst, 2016). Because the police departments are requiring their officers to have an associate’s or bachelor’s degree for an entry-level position will make the department more completive, but the department should still consider

For consideration as a Lieutenant within the Intelligence & Analysis Crime Unit, Regional Operations & Intelligence Center. my experience of supervision, dealing with outside vendors and ability to manage complex data systems would make me a good fit for the Intelligence & Analysis Crime Unit. Used by the NJSP and various outside agencies, the Voicebox system is a primary tool of police wiretapping operations. Furthermore, I have managed the entire MAPPS System software, this includes negotiating with outside vendors and writing of waivers each valued at a quarter of a million dollars or more. Having been an assistant unit head since 2011, and in charge of two enlisted and five civilian personnel, my experience in managing personnel is established. My current assignment in the MAPPS/SPU Unit has required a wealth of different skill sets including, editing and writing SOPs, completing MAPPS Supervisory Training Lesson plans, and instructing hundreds of new supervisors.

I was able to observe a dispatcher named Greg. I was actually able to excel really well at this, because of my past in cyber security I understood how nearly all of the equipment worked. Greg explained to me how much the dispatchers actually deal with. It is up to them to decipher whether or not a call is an actual emergency. I first observed him taking the calls from the public, this seemed like an easy job, but then I realized that the dispatchers almost never get to find out how the calls end, which I would personally find difficult.. I then observed him actually dispatching officers and setting them on route, this job seemed the the hardest by far. The dispatchers seemed so stressed and stretched with their resources. I did not do much else at dispatch except for sitting in a chair, observing, and asking

I am currently assigned as a Traffic Homicide Detective in CID since December 2007. I was previously assigned to District 2 where I served as a traffic accident investigator and patrol Deputy. While in District 2 I was also on temporary duty to Special Projects where I assisted in the training and implementation of the new Versaterm CAD system. I also served as a Field Training Officer for 6

One of the requirements is to have experience in management are cases of adult offenders, convicted of felonies and misdemeanors, people that are placed on probation to supervise and make them better citizens. Some of the requirements that performance can be stressful and dangerous because of the situations they made present, the time I spend as officer give me that experience of knowing how to handle a stressful, caseload and especially difficult situations the clients may present if they a had an event of psychosis for any type of drugs/mental illness.

I have worked in a public service capacity for the last twelve years. The closest job duties that I performed to this job were as an addiction counselor. Although the addiction counselor job was more clinically focused, we also were responsible for most of the initial admission documentation which included ROI's, consent to treat, among other forms. At discharge, we collected payments. Interpersonal verbal communication skills were a must. If one patient had a trauma reaction it was important to quickly de-escalate otherwise it could trigger a trauma reaction in others.

After completing a job match board based on my interest and skills, I have found many different job matches to explore. The similar patterns that I have discovered are that most of my job matches deals with the safety and supervision of others. The job titles that I matched with were the roles of becoming a parole/probation officer, Family Social Worker, Compliance Officer, Flight Attendant, and Criminal Law Investigator. The branch that I am considering the most would be the parole/probation officer position. I am very committed to the study that leads me to earn my degree in Criminal Justice. I am motivated to do whatever it takes that is going to lead me into that profession. I chose this position because it is going to give me a chance to help people change their lives for the better before or after incarceration. Also, being in this position will let

First-Line Supervisors of Police and Detectives supervise and assign duties to the police force.

This career interests me because it suits my personality and skills.Therefore, I have come to my senses after researching that my career interest is a supervisor for police and detectives because of my great strengths for being in control, organization, and dedication.

As previously mentioned, the communication manager sets and manages the budget. Revenues are received from a 911 surcharge that is added to all landline and in-service cell phones. Since those revenues do not cover all expenses, every year the communication manager submits the dollar amount needed for every expense. The city administrator, along with the city council decide the amount of funds that will be allocated to the 911 Center. It is usually a lower amount than requested, therefore, the communication manager must prioritize expenditures to make sure the most needed resources are being purchased. Since the 911 Center is attached and belongs to the fire department, there is some shared expenditures and city governmental funds. The

I am currently assigned to the 9-1-1/communications call center where we field all 9-1-1 calls for police-fire-ambulance and also the non-emergent administrative calls to our police service. I supervise 24 full time and part time civilian staff members whom are not sworn officers.

You would benefit in having me in this job because I would like to answer and assess emergency 911 and non-emergency calls for service; I like being in the action without actually being in the action. I believe I have the ability to type 35 net words per minute, but i’ve never timed myself to actually know. I don't have any felony convictions or drug abuse history. I’m prepared to take the intensive training. I can flexibly work with any hours and overtime. I've been told that I do adapt quickly

We had a clinical psychologist, Cerise Vablais that attended the police citizen academy. I presented a block on Hostage Negotiation and the Cerise asked to volunteer to be on the Hostage negotiating team. I was at a loss on how to create a new volunteer position and reached out to Patrick. Patrick walked me through the process and was instrumental in helping to create this position. At his request, I sent him a brief job description of the HNT Clinical Psychologist. Patrick then expanded this and created a City of Kirkland official “Police Hostage Negotiation Team (HNT) Licensed Psychologist (unpaid)” volunteer position description (See attached).

We experienced the same kind of situation trying to contact an emergency manager for our assignment. This assignment has shine so much light on what I have been learning over the last six weeks. For once I can say I get it. I think this assignment was necessary to put everything into perspective for us. I truly enjoyed this assignment and can not wait to see what future I will have in Emergency Management. Every class I take makes me yearned to learn more.
