i am not sure if they are officially police officers hence my figures. although that labor agreement is from 2007 so they may have raised it.
if you can get those jobs, take 'em! most of those county cops used to be on my job. they just had to wait years to get there and all the hoops you have to jump through.
it's very political. if they don't like you for any reason, they just tell you that you failed the lie detector test and you're gone.
the nypd takes you if you have a body temp around 98.6 degrees.
I’ve read about the phony lie detector tests for Suffolk County.
