Information Consistency During the NYPD Application Process is Key

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

It is imperative that a Candidate be particularly thorough, consistent and accurate when providing their personal history throughout the NYPD Police Officer application process. The Psychologists, as well as other NYPD personnel who review the collected data will view a Candidate’s lack of thoroughness, consistency and accuracy when describing their personal history as a negative predictor of future disciplinary action, believing that Candidates who give inconsistent or conflicting responses to life history questions are more likely to become members of a formally disciplined group. Furthermore, omitting items on life history questionnaires and/or discrepancies between an applicant’s self-reported background/life history information and the information submitted in support of other applications can also be viewed as predictive of future negative job outcomes and may be considered in an unfavorable manner when final suitability judgments are being made.

Are College Degrees required for NYPD Officers?

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

All prospective NYPD recruits must have either 60 semester hours of college credit or two years of full-time experience in the United States Armed Forces. Those who do not meet these guidelines may want to consider the NYPD’s Police Cadet Corps. This work-study program places cadet recruits in paid NYPD support assignments while providing tuition assistance to help them meet the NYPD recruit college requirements.

Is it Difficult to Pass the Police Academy?

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

Once hired as a police recruit, prospective officers attend the New York City Police Academy. The rigorous training program lasts six months. The NYPD requires 913 hours of training for their new recruits, which is higher than the New York state-mandated requirement of 700 hours. Of the 913 hours of training: 269 hours are focused on academics, 150 hours on physical tactics, 105 hours on firearms and 28 hours on driver training. The additional 361 hours are used for additional add-on trainings and presentations.

Courses cover such topics as law, behavioral science, physical training and tactics, police science, firearms training, and First Aid/ CPR. Classes in terrorism, identity theft, and other advanced law enforcement skills are also part of the curriculum.

Recruits must pass 4 separate exams with a score of 75% or higher to graduate from the academy and be sworn in as an NYPD Police Officer.

Did you receive a NYPD Psychological Disqualification? Choose your MHP Carefully!

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

If you receive a NYPD NOPD psychological disqualification you should interview the psychologist you want to hire to represent you VERY CAREFULLY or face severe regrets afterwards.

There are psychologists charging very low fees to represent disqualified NYPD candidates in psychological disqualification appeals which may seem like a great chance to get reinstated to the NYPD Police Officer eligible list. However, what is not revealed is that these psychologists will report that you are NOT PSYCHOLOGICALLY QUALIFIED for the position of police officer and will mail a report saying that as part of your appeal.

In order to avoid this crucial mistake, before hiring a psychologist to represent you in your psychological disqualification appeal you should:

  1. Ask the psychologist what their fee includes.
  2. Ask will they let you know if they are going to write a report that agrees with the NYPD that you are “psychologically unsuitable”.
  3. Ask to see the report before they send it.
  4. Have them agree upfront that they will not send the report if they cannot support your candidacy.

Sometimes a great price may generate the report that prevents you from ever becoming a law enforcement officer. Therefore, you MUST ask these questions in advance to save yourself from heartache as a result of a terrible psychological report.
