Click the BECOME A COP link, it should have the material that will help you out.

Um.  Maybe you could change your user name to LUV2BCOP? 

Interesting. . . . .you've been here 2+ years now and you now just come around to introducing yourself?  Were you in tactical mode for the last 2 years to see if we were okay?  Must have decided that we aren't all that bad as you now come to light.  Actually, I'm just rattling your cage a bit here.

I will be serious enough to welcome you and wish you luck in your endeavors.  HOWEVER, going under the assumption that you make it through to obtain that coveted shiny piece of tin that will be worn on your chest as a symbol of your oath to uphold the law no matter the challenges. . . . .you may come to understand why those that have gone before you and have taken on the challenges of the job that you are gung ho about right now. . . .you may come to understand why the claims to being an officer are cherished. . . .and well protected on this site.  When you spend the better part of a year going through an academy and then further OJT and actually get to the point where you bleed blue (or brown as the case may be), you won't want anyone claiming a title that you would have worked for.  Are we clear?

Changing your screen name on this site is relatively easy and can be done many times.  Take the suggestions that have been made and alter your screen name so it does not reflect something that you are not. . . . .yet.

ahaha just noticed that, Beowulf!  Although I posted like crazy in Forums for something like eight months before I introduced myself formally to the site.  

Yeah, broward not cop 44 - LEOs here are being polite.

Change your user name asap.

broward44, I think LEOs here were objecting to your use of "browardcop44" as misleading since it suggested you are already sworn.

It's a matter of respect.

I wish you the best in your pursuit of a LEO career!  Take to heart what the others have said about your screen name.  It is misleading.  Misleading info makes others suspicious.  Maybe add 2B at the end of your current screen name.  Easy fix.  The other issue I have is your lack of proof reading...  Remember that you will be doing a lot of report writing.  You need to proof read your work.  Yeah, this is JUST a website, right?  Wrong!  You should care no matter where your written words are being read.

Best of luck on your oral boards.

I have to agree with DonnaLynn.  Best of Luck to you in your pursuit to become a police officer

Welcome to PL.

 Welcome to PL from Kansas. Good luck on your job hunt. 

Welcome to Police Link, from Ohio!!!

the pd i applyed for is really back logged so my oral isnt till may  but i have other apps in at other places.. what are your guys thoughts or relocting 4 a job

I know the market here in So. Florida can be tough.  If you are serious about becoming an Officer, it might not hurt to put applications in for agencies in Palm Beach County and other counties as well.  There are no shortages on agencies, plenty of them.
