Ask A Recruiter – Question #109

Posted by eric

i graduated from the sac sheriff academy in 09 and i was interested in working for sac pd starting as a reserve then moving into full time. i am also going to be starting my AA degree very soon. how do i get into the dept. as a reserve. i am even willing to volunteer my time until i finish my AA degree. please let me know.

Dear eric,

Volunteering is a wonderful route to take, especially if you are trying to get hired with our department!  You will not only demonstrate your dedication, but you will get lots of exposure internally.  The big picture for you is to get hired as a full-time peace officer with us, so you are going to eventually need at least 60 college units.  Get as much schooling done as possible. (Finishing your degree is even better!)  We currently do not have reserve positions available.  Keep monitoring our City website and keep an eye out for the opening (application).
