Will I Get Feedback From My Psychological Evaluation?

75+ Google Reviews for the  Law Firm of Kevin P. Sheerin

Candidates will not generally receive any feedback or explanation regarding their assessment results, since the Psychological Screening Evaluations are used as preemployment and/or security screening assessment tools, and providing disqualified Candidates with such detailed information could potentially:

1.  undermine the independence of a second-opinion process, which Candidates can request in the event they were previously disqualified. If the second-opinion evaluation is granted, the psychological screening records will be forwarded to the qualified outside professional conducting the second-opinion evaluation. And, if the results of a medical or psychological examination would result in a disqualification, the applicant may submit independent medical opinions for consideration before a final determination on disqualification is made. In short, providing disqualified candidates with the detailed reasons that lead to their disqualification might influence how they present themselves during the testing and/or interview of a second-opinion or other subsequent evaluation;

2.  place the Psychologist in a dual relationship. Since Psychologists serve as an agent of the hiring agency, it is they, not the Candidate, who is the client. This obligation requires the Psychologist remain objective and devoid of any advocacy for the Candidate. This role could be compromised if the Psychologist tries to serve the interests of both the hiring agency and the Candidate simultaneously; and,

3.  breach the confidentiality of the background investigation, as information provided by references and other collateral sources during the background investigation are protected, as is employment information disclosed by an employer to a requesting law enforcement agency.

What to do if you fail the NYPD Psych Test

75+ Google Reviews for the  Law Firm of Kevin P. Sheerin

What to do if you fail the NYPD Psych Test…

In the event you fail the NYPD Psychological Test you will receive (by email) a Notice of Proposed Disqualification stating that you are psychologically disqualified from the NYPD Police Officer title. You have thirty days from the date of the NOPD to appeal. For a successful outcome, you should hire both an attorney and a psychologist who are experienced in the appeal process and who will help you file a rebuttal report. This report will be sent to the NYPD Candidate Assessment Division for review.

After your psychologist’s report is reviewed you may receive an email directing you to come in for another interview with a NYPD psychologist. During the interview the psychologist will review the reports prepared by both the original NYPD psychologist and your expert. You can expect to be questioned on any inconsistencies between the reports and the problem areas found by the first NYPD Psychologist who chose to disqualify you. This re-interview is an important step in the appeal process which should not be taken lightly. Be sure to hire a seasoned Attorney and Mental Health Professional who are experienced in this type of appeal process.
