I answered i didnt like being the center of attention am i screwed?
I do not know for sure. It depends how you answered the rest of the questions to see if you will be a good fit for that department. Always keep in mind that they want to hire a person who will be Social and doesn’t mind being the center of attention in order to resolvesociety problems
@@AdjuMjc most people don't like being the center of attention, unless they are narcissists , that would seem like a red flag I would think.
I recommend you research that topic to see what psychologists feel the best answer will be. Most peace officers arrive on scene and become scene commanders. As the person in charge of critical events, you will become center of attention. You have to be okay with being in charge. Keep in mind you are trying to fit a mold. The mold was created by that bagency to decide if you will be a good fit for that organization 😊 @@missunderstood6056
Best video ever , is there gonna be a part 2?
Thank you for the positive feedback. At this time there are no plans for a Part 2. I recommend doing some online research on 16PF and MMPI Psychological questions to get a better understanding of this part of the background investigation/ hiring process.
Hi Bryan, Thanks so much for all your videos and dedication. This is exactly what I needed to hear. I’m 40 and seriously contemplating starting the process to potentially become a police officer. Question: My wife’s primary language is Spanish and she doesn’t fully understand the hiring/background process. Would you be willing to make a video in Spanish talking about the process from A to Z? I know it’s a big ask. If you can’t, no worries. Thanks and God bless you!
Hello Michael, thanks for reaching out. There are so many current job opportunities in law enforcement. Choose 10 major law enforcement agencies and apply all at once. ON your request: Unfortunately, my Spanish is limited and I do not feel qualified to do a full video in Spanish. You may want to check to see if my videos closed caption can be switched to Spanish. Best wishes in the hiring process.
I want to apply to chp could a dui prevent you from getting accepted or can you get disqualified
It all depends on the circumstances of the dui and how long it has been since that event. The background investigator will need to confirm that it was dui misdemeanor arrest - not a felony which instantly would disqualify you and prevent you from becoming peace officer.
If that’s the only issue and it’s been over 4 years and it is a misdemeanor does that still cause for disqualification
@@brandonramirez8334 Presently, the main disqualifier to become a peace officer in California is a felony conviction. Sit down with your background investigator and be honest from day one so that he/she can verify if the incident would disqualify you or not. Never hide anything from the background that may disqualify you later.
How long after applying do I know if the application got accepted or rejected?
@@brandonramirez8334 Before you can apply, you must search local police departments that offer the POST Pellet B test. This is a written test to assess if you possess enough critical thinking, and grammar knowledge to move forward in the process. Once you get the POST Pellet B exam, you can apply to a group of law enforcement agencies. After applying for any agency you will be scheduled to take written exam and participate in a physical agility testing to make sure you are fit enough to pass the physical part of the academy. Once you pass those, you will be scheduled for oral interviews. Once you pass the oral interviews, you will be assigned a background investigator (BI). The agency will ask you to fill out a Personal History Statement (PHS) a 30 page document that includes all the places you have ever lived at, family, friends, employers, financials, etc. You will meet with the BI to go over the PHS. At that point you will know if there are any 'instant disqualifiers."
What exactly are you teaching you mentioned you have law-enforcement as students?

Why does the state limit the age to 35?
CHP, FBI, military, and other state agencies have applications age restrictions. FBI agents are forced to retire at age 57 unless they have specialty area that gives them an exception to that rule. I have q suspicion that it has to do with retirement benefits but not verifiable. Most city and county law enforcement agencies do not have application age restrictions. The oldest officer I trained entered the police a academy at 52 years of age.
Why does the state limit the age to 35?
Fascinating video I love the insight Why is the California Highway Patrol the only one with the maximum age of 35? I’m 57 is that too old to be a law-enforcement officer ?
Good tips✅
Glad you think so! Thanks 🙏
Hello sir , I have been waiting watching a few of your videos . I applied to to CHP and I’m testing next month for PAT and written . I am confident I will pass , but I have a few concerns regarding background check . I don’t have no tickets or crimes but I live in a ghetto area and have an arm tattoo, hand tattoo and two very small finger tattoos. Nothing crazy just art . According to CHP they don’t specify about tattoos , they just want you to comply to cover them up . I have no problem with a long sleeve uniform and a sleeve glove . I just want to know more about what you think .
Thanks for reaching out. It is important that you notify your Background Investigator of the type of neighborhood you were raised in so that here she is not shocked when they visit that area of the city. Most law-enforcement agencies are conservative in California, and they are somewhat restrictive on what types of tattoos can be visually observed past long sleeve shirts. The question would be if you were to wear a long sleeve shirt, would it cover all the tattoos? Make sure that you also have a readily available answer if the Background Investigator asks you about each tattoo.
@@AdjuMjc thanks for that information. My uniform would not cover all of my tattoos. The uniform’s sleeve would not cover the hand tattoo and finger ones . I can remove the finger ones at my expense or wear make up or wear a glove sleeve that would only expose the tip of my fingers .
So helpful! Did you ever release the zoom interview?
Amen, thank so much for the details and tips 🙏.
I failed with a recent agency. I was devastated. The pressure of being evaluated got the best of me. I also was put in new situations I had never been in and did not perform well.
I'm sorry to hear you failed FTO. Keep in mind that there are lots of law enforcement agencies out there with different types of workloads. Stay strong and focused on your future career intentions.
no recidivisms because parole officer and street cops got their hands tied.
no accountability on inmate action and behavior. change the definition of over familarity that will make staff vulnerable for inmate manipulation.

You can thank newsom, Jeff mccomber, Raquel buckle, and all the other spineless POSs that run the dept. They care more about condemned individuals than the safety of the officers. Even the prisoners don’t want this Norway model because of the mixing of classifications on the yard But hey, yall voted for this leadship so deal with it.
CCI needs to be closed!
All cops lie. Fact.
Cdcr or federal corrections?
As of 2024, CDCR has higher salary but less officer 👮 safety due to California Model - Federal has lower salary, higher officer safety precautions. Do your homework on all agencies and make the decision that best fits your needs. So many LE and Correctional open jobs in 2024. Look 👀 at all options. 😊
What jail paid him that much ? Correctly close to the bay and looking into going into corrections but pay isn’t the best
Also do you have to go to Galt, CA academy ?
This guy is the truth! Went through the Pelletb & Physical Training! Everything this guy said is the truth!
@adjumjc I currently passed both the physical & written for chp w good results! I wanted to ask if you would recommend the career as rn I have a BA & a year left to finish to become a teacher. I’m nervous as I might die in the line of duty
Why on their website does it say sheriff deputy makes $82,157 - $138,605 I dont see anywhere on their website or online where it states LASD sheriff deputy makes 143k-222k lol
Thanks for reaching out. POST.CA.GOV was advertising that amount for Los Angeles County Deputy Sheriff. That figure includes all their benefits. The salary without benefits as of May 17, 2024 is: Full time - $84,827.52 - $143,117.40 Annually. Now, keep in mind that most deputies and officers are making at least 40 to 50K a year in overtime work on top of their salaries. Look up Oakland PD where one of their officers has made $400,000 in one year. Another San Francisco, CA: "Deputy Bloom has consistently ranked among the top three overtime earners in the city every year since 2016. Over this period, he accumulated over $2.2 million in overtime compensation, a substantially higher amount than any other municipal employee. Lots of open jobs for full-time law enforcement in 2024. :)
@@AdjuMjc Oh I see, thank you for clarifying, that makes a lot more sense! I am currently applying at CHP I have the physical coming up shortly.
This video works. I used it, it helped me pass my test. Listen to what he says.
What if they ask you on the psych test if you like Opera, Mechanics, Poetry, Reading books versus building and if you life of a party?? Also, why are there Math questions?
I failed my first psych and have my next one tomorrow. The research and videos I watched before my first psych told me to be open, honest, and communicative. It led me to do just that, including what you said: “word vomit”. I failed because of it. I wish I would’ve came across your video earlier. I’m preparing myself to still be honest but also to really be careful with giving them any information that will lead them to believe I would not be suitable for the job. Thank you!
What was ur outcome on your appeal?
@@dilanxd I didn’t appeal the psych. However I had a second psych exam two weeks later for a different agency. I passed my psych exam and am now working at that agency! 🙌🏽
Man, I’m going to assume that everything you said in this video still applies today. There’s a lot of food for thought in this video. A lot of stuff that I’ve never heard anyone mention.
Thanks 🙏 for feedback. Always best to learn this information early and be prepared to successfully pass the FTO program. Be safe out there
So if someone sets your home on, and told 2 or more people they were going to do it.And those people told the police what the person said . Then what happens !
Hmmm 🤔 you may be missing a word - read California Penal code section 182: conspiracy. 664 Ca PC is attempt - if house catches fire 🔥 451 Ca PC Arson. All felony crimes
Thank you for the tips
Hello I am currently on the hiring process to becoming a CHP officer. I wanted to ask if the background process is the same and is it up to date? My division is in Inland empire, California
Hello Bryan - CHP uses the Personal Background Investigation (PHS) form from POST as well as another internal form similar to the PHS. Make sure your information matches on both forms. BUT- although the CHP background process is similar to other law enforcement agencies, they are able to include additional steps to the background investigation process at their discretion. There is only one CHP academy and it is located in Sacramento, CA. Just prior to graduation, you will be asked for your top choices for field office locations. They base your assignment on several key points of information: If you are married, if you own a home, if your kids and close family live in that area, etc. There are no guarantees where you will be assigned but the more categories you check, the higher your chances you will get placed in your desired area. However, all of this is dependent on whether or not that field office has openings at the time of your graduation.

I think an ambivert is most people. Omnivert on the other hand is most likely diagnosed with a disorder. I know someone like that! Thanks for this video very informative 👍
I take my psych evaluation soon and thanks for doing this!
thanks for these tips.
Thank you for the motivating message!
People who have failed FTO the first time. You have any words of encouragement if they have a chance to pass second time around or any best advice you can give? Thank you.
If you failed FTO, you have to go over copies of your DOR s Daily Observation reports to see what area were noted that you never improved. Be honest and admit what areas you should have improved but didn’t. Once you have identified those, you have to work hard on those issues by attending various training courses that address those issues. Your POST academy certificate in CA is valid for only 3 years from date you can get ended employment so you need to get busy applying to as many agencies as possible - even as a reserve officer 👮 just to keep that cert alive. Sit down 🪑 with law enforcement experts to see if the reasons you failed FTO can be fixed. Study and improve your personality, - even 1% a day, in the 100 days you will be 100% better. What you don’t want to do is drown in your pity party and do nothing to improve yourself 😊
CalPERS retirement benefits have always been considered community property. A 50/50 division, though ridiculous, is nothing new. Also, the no-handcuffing rule would probably work well enough in Level I-II facilities, but you can bet it won't be implemented in higher security areas. There's a huge difference between what the political types in Sacramento say to do and what actually happens in Pelican Bay.
Thanks 🙏 for sharing your expertise with the viewers. All guidance is appreciated to protect officers safety and well being.
I’m 16 right now I was planning on joining the army for 4-6 years and get my bachelors in criminal justice then become a police officer is this a good plan plz help I feel confused and need some points of interest
I respect 🫡 those who have joined the military to protect our country. My advice would be to graduate high school and get a 2 year degree in Criminal Justice then transfer to a four year university to obtain your Bachelor degree. At age 22 you will be better equipped to decide whether to join the service as an officer (2nd Lieutenant) or apply to police agencies, FBI, etc. large police agencies offer more specialized job assignments- California agencies pay the highest salaries and benefits. At age 22 and with a 4 year degree, you will be best equipped to decide which career path to pursue 😊
thank you for replying to my comment is there any other ways to prepare for this other than the military because although I want to join I have a disability called IBD which f-word sucks and as of right now I so not know if I can still join with out being rejected from it@@AdjuMjc
I don't think they should disqualify you for writing introvert or ambivert just because the qualities are not good for being a cop, plus isnt the purpose of the psych test to see if your crazy or not and you answering everything truthfully even when they throw the same questions 5 times at you. There are plenty of introverted cops out there.
Thanks 🙏 for sharing your feedback. The purpose of this video is to inform and not sugarcoat reality. To enter the law enforcement profession, applicants must fit a ‘mold.’ They must fit that mold or a background investigator, psychologist or Field Training Officer will wash them out during their evaluation processes. In early years of school students take various personality tests to see what professions would be a good fit for them. By further researching each profession, students learn what the job molds are and if they would be a good fit for that career. 😊
Thank you for this video! My personal understanding of introvert/extrovert is how you recharge. Extroverts recharge by being around people, introverts recharge by being alone. I personally am an introvert, I recharge by being alone (or in my home with my wife/kids). I am by no means shy, non-assertive, or afraid/anxious to approach people and start conversations. My current vocation requires me to be very social and to communicate and interact personally with individuals, small groups, as well as large groups in a public speaking capacity, sometimes tackling difficult topics or awkward conversations. After a long day of being "social" I do feel tired or somewhat drained and need to recharge in a low key environment where I don't feel like I need to be "on". An extrovert, on the other hand, would feel energized after a long day of socializing. Let me know if this is a proper understanding of the topic or if I'm potentially "shooting myself in the foot" by labeling myself as an introvert, as I'm currently in the process with two police departments. I have taken the Myers Briggs and I got an INTJ.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and perceptions Miguel. It is best wo ask that question of a therapist or psychiatrist who can better explain to you if you would be a good fit for a peace officer position if you assert that you are an introvert. Keep in mind that peace officers are constantly dealing with people at various temperaments and I would be concerned that if being around too many people drains you, - you may not be a good fit for this profession. My last full-time job as a police officer we worked 11 hour days for four days with four days off but some of those days off would be spent in court testifying or working overtime. Again, this is just my opinion and you should do some research to see if a person who is an introvert would be able to pass psychological evaluation and obtain employment as a peace officer. Best wishes to you and thanks again for sharing your thoughts and perceptions.
Well spoken..... Thank you for defining and breaking down everything we have missed because of or public service. 7 years traveling up and down the CalFire missing my children's school event and family gatherings and CDCR force over 16-hour shift. 26 years missed my family .Now retired i can work part time and be part of my family like other people.

We cant learn anything from other countries. U.S. shares a border with mexico. They dont.
Hello bryan, Im currently going through the backgrounds process with, COCO county sheriffs office. But the issue is I haven’t heard anything from them, I heard you state in the video that we should apply for multiple departments. Do you think its too late for me to still apply for another department, since I’m currently going through the background process? I truly don’t want my application to be a last resort for the department I applied for, I also heard you say that. We should apply for multiple departments its puts like a fire under our backgrounds investigator to wanna hurry it up. Would it look bad on me if I apply for another department even though I’m in the process with one?
Thanks for reaching out. If it’s been over 3 weeks and you haven’t heard from you BI or hiring staff, it’s okay to send them an email to see if there are any updates. You can at anytime apply for other agencies. I recommend at least 10 and use that to motivate others to speed up hiring process. You have to be willing to move to where opportunity is. It is never a good idea to apply to one agency and just wait.
@@AdjuMjc Im assuming its just due to the nervousness and the overthinking, but it has been only 9 business days. Also does it look like I’m hiding something if I apply elsewhere? I would like to be as open and as modest as possible, but as you stated I don’t want to miss out on my opportunity. Another thing is, I don’t want to work for any agency and I only want to be a deputy sheriff. Do you have any suggestions on what I should do? As well thanks for your response.
If you wish to become a deputy sheriff, keep in mind that there are a number of county loan enforcement agencies, and no one will fault you for applying to several as this will increase your chances of getting hired.

Hello, will having a tendency towards introversion result in a higher likelihood of failure on the psychological test?
Law enforcement officers 👮 must be willing to communicate with people. If you feel that you could not perform this task or that your introverted tendency may block this behavior, it may affect how a police psychologist 👩⚕️ decides on whether or not to pass you for that career. It is best to research what type of personality you are by taking the Meyers Briggs test and after looking at the results you can see if you would be a good fit for what type of various jobs. One other option is to consult with a private psychiatrist on the matter.

One significant difference in working conditions that people should consider is that some of the deputies working rural areas for the County Sheriff agencies and most of the CHP officers are working without a backup nearby. Its like to working without a net. Even a small municipal PD will generally have adequate backup within a couple minutes' distance in the event a traffic stop or a pedestrian contact or a routine call for service goes bad. That's not the case when it's a rural area or even on a highway in a metro area and units are scattered over a 10 or 20 or 40 mile stretch of road. Probably most rural areas have spots where their nearest backup might be 20 minutes away or occasionally even longer. For just 1 more cop, not 4 or 5. Orange County and some of the smaller counties are an exception, but "rural" otherwise happens all up and down the state of California. Just having the option to call for and get a backup onsite in a minute or two can make a big difference. Just having another head on scene can be helpful to solicit a 2nd opinion on how to handle a situation. Just having another head on scene can inhibit or prevent a crook from thinking they can get away with escalating or running. Just having another head onsite can sometimes make it possible to get a struggling arrestee into handcuffs (although realistically that often takes a total of 3 or 4 heads, not just 2). If you've never been in a fight then you may not realize how long 30 seconds is or how badly you can get hurt. If you've never been punched then you may not realize what happens when you get your bell rung. This especially applies to people of small stature. That 25-30# of additional gear isn't going to be any help, either. No amount of karate or muay thai or even boxing is going to get someone into handcuffs. If the physical environment even offers that much room to be moving around in, which usually it won't. IRL a lot of the shootings that have occurred were the result of the cop losing the struggle to get the arrestee into handcuffs. Not to mention the number of cops who overreacted in the face of escalation because they were concerned they might lose that fight for life.
