The five components of the selection process include:
The written exam. The test varies by department, but it might be a civil service exam, an exam produced by the individual police department, a state-level exam, or one produced by a private testing company. The exam does not test specific legal or criminal justice knowledge, but rather evaluates the candidate's basic reading, writing, and comprehension skills
Background checks. The primary purpose of the background check is to determine if the candidate has been convicted of any felonies or serious misdemeanors and to make sure that he or she is of good moral character
Interview. The interview process is designed to evaluate a candidate's suitability for becoming a police officer. The interview can be structured, unstructured, or a combination or both. In a structured interview, the candidate is asked a series of questions regarding the job and his or her specific abilities. Structured questions usually require specified answers to direct questions (e.g., do you drink alcohol?). The other alternative is to conduct a semistructured interview, with open-ended questions on particular topics
