Required Documents:

Applicants for the position of POLICE ACADEMY RECRUIT are required to submit a copy of ALL required documents with the employment application. Applicants will not be eligible for employment until ALL required documents have been submitted to CIVIL SERVICE or uploaded with the application. Elements of the selection process: Our system allows you to work on your application and save the application without submitting it. This is done to allow you to save your work and come back to finish the application without having to start over. If you submit your application and do not "complete" it before 4 p.m. on the posted close date (listed on the job opportunities page), your application will be rejected from the system and you will have to start the application over. The application WILL NOT be accepted or reviewed until it is "complete". After submission of the completed application (including ALL required documents) the application will be accepted. Once the application is accepted, your application will be evaluated to determine if you will continue in the process. Applicants with the most desirable applications will move to the next phase of the process. Applicants will be contacted within 60 days of the “accepted” date. If selected to move forward, you will be invited to complete the following:
Biographical interview: A biographical interview will be conducted by a member of the G.S.S. staff. The biographical interview will consist of a full comprehensive review of the application submitted to confirm accuracy of the information provided. Applicants that are selected to continue in the process will be given information and instructions for the submission of a Personal History Questionnaire, which will be required to move forward in the process.
Fingerprints: The G.S.S staff will also take your fingerprints to assist in the background phase of the hiring process.
If selected to move to the next phase, the applicant will attend an interview conducted by a panel. The panel will consist of a minimum of three police department members.
Candidates who have been deemed qualified to continue in the selection process by the interview panel will be scheduled for a Physical Abilities Test (PAT).A thorough background Investigation will be completed on all candidates prior to employment. Those applicants that are selected for employment will be given a conditional offer of employment. The job offer is contingent upon the successful completion and approval of a polygraph examination, psychological fitness examination, medical examination, drug screen testing and completed background investigation. The applicant will receive written notice either by mail or electronic mail at each phase of the selection process advising them that they were selected to move forward in the process or that they were not selected. It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure that the e-mail address provided on the application is correct and to provide any updated information to Civil Service during the application process. Once a decision has been reached to offer the applicant employment OR that the applicant will not be offered employment, applicants will be notified within 30 days. The intent of the Lakeland Police Department's General Services Section is that the selection process, from the date of the biographical until the applicant is advised of a decision regarding employment, will not extend beyond 180 days. When an applicant is selected for employment and all elements of the selection process have been passed, the applicant must be currently attending a Florida CJST Police Academy or scheduled to attend within 60 days after final approval of the background investigation and prior to starting employment as a Police Academy Recruit. Additionally, the applicant will be required to complete and pass an FDLE approved basic abilities test prior to hiring and as a condition of entrance into the Academy.

Upon graduation from the police academy, the Recruit must successfully pass the State Examination and become Florida certified as a Police Officer. Upon successful completion of the state examination, the Recruit must immediately begin the in house "Mini-Academy". The Mini-Academy is a seven-week long training program that provides recruits with the necessary knowledge and skills to begin the Field Training Program. Once the recruit successfully passes the Mini Academy they will begin the 16-week Field Training Program. The recruit will be on probationary status until their one year probationary period is successfully completed. Failure of any of these steps or if the recruit, on his/her own initiative, separates from employment with the Lakeland Police Department prior to two (2) years after becoming a police officer will result in the recruit reimbursing the City on a pro-rata basis for costs of tuition for basic recruit training, other course expenses and police certification examination. Reapplication: Reapplication, retesting, and re-evaluation of applicants not hired is permitted after six months as long as nothing in the applicant’s history indicates an unfitness for employment. Conditions that qualify as unfitness for employment include revelations of unacceptable drug use, criminal records, or other factors discovered during the selection process. Background Investigation: A background investigation of each candidate for all positions is conducted prior to appointment to probationary status. The background investigation may include, but is not limited to: a. verification of qualifying credentials b. a review of any criminal record c. a review of applicants driving record d. fingerprint check e. warrants check f. records check g. verification of at least three personal references h. a review of prior employment/military history i. a review of applicants employment and academy files j. review of social site/internet information Be advised that sensitive or confidential aspects of the applicant's personal lives may be explored.
