Hi all,

I am just trying to prepare some interview questions for next week(if i pass pirt) and would like a little advice!

Will i be asked a scenario type question relating to each of the core compentencies and will i need to speak for 5 mins at a time on each of the questions like you do for the regs??!

Will i be asked any of the following questions:

Knowledge of your chosen force and its county.

Areas or divisions of the force

The ministerial priorities for your force

Equal Opportunities

Rank structure of your force.

Strategic Plan of your chosen force

Current local and national police issues

Why do you want to become a police officer (Always a popular one)

How could the Police service be better

How would you deal with minor offences

What have you done before (past occupations etc)

Main successes

Internet (force web site - have you seen it?)

Racist/sexist behaviour. Past experiences

What could I offer

How could ethnic minorities be recruited
Most importantly

or is that all a bit in depth.......im worrying!

Dont know where to start!

How long is the interview and how many people interview you?!


Thanks loads
