Why the Deputy Sheriff Exam and the Oral Board Interview So Important?

I'm going to be totally honest with you because some of you have been flat out lied to and here's why. Some people have been told that becoming a police officer or a deputy sheriff will be easy. Some think the hiring process is no different than applying at a shoe store. I don't want to be the bear of bad news, but that is a flat out lie, and I'll explain why. For one, the deputy sheriff selection process is very competitive. There are a great number of candidates who want to be a deputy sheriff, and some of these potential prospects are college educated, or have military background.

The only thing that really level the playing field if you don't have any military background or a four year degree is your performance on the sheriff entrance exam, and the oral board interview. If you totally ace both exams, you'll most likely leap frog the competition even if you don't have the accolades behind your name. If you didn't already know this, the hiring panel put a lot of emphasis on how well you do on the written exam, and the oral board interview (especially the scenario base questions).

The entrance exam will cover the basics like reading comprehension, math, grammar, spelling, vocabulary, memory recognition and more. The oral interview will cover questions concerning your integrity, character, background, and tough scenario base questions. The scenario base questions or the "what if this happens" type of questions is the most nerve-racking part, but just like the written exam if you study up on the questions, you'll totally ace the test.
