experience must be reflected in your resume to be credited to your

community; student; social). Volunteer work helps build critical

destructive, must be handled with understanding, full control of
force, and unimpeded judgment. Any emotional or mental condition
which could cause the applicant/officer to be a hazard to others or
self during stress situations and physical altercations will
disqualify. The psychological assessment will be limited to an
interview by a psychologist or psychiatrist covering only job
