currently going through the process of applying to be a police constable, just wondering if anyone on here has any experience of this at all?

Listening to them talk about their experiences the main thing that struck me is that if you are truly comitted to it, and persist with your application then there is hope for getting a job. it important to make sure that the force you are applying to is actually recruiting, as there are apparently particular times when they are and they aren't.
Also one fo my friends failed her fitness test the first time, but passed the second and is now a fully fledged officer.
Good luck!
I already know it takes time to go through the application process, luckily the force im applying for has advised 3-6months but some others are more like 12.
ive practiced the fitness test on my own and its pretty simple. The strength tests are very easy and the running aint that bad, so thats the least of my worries at the moment. Im applying on line which is good because you can use your application to different forces as and when you want.
I think this is finally what ive decided on doing with my life so if i fail the first time, i definately will be taking their advice and trying again!
fingers crossed noinch
