I am working hard to get on the police and I have gotten many different suggestions, one in particular is that I should show that I am working towards the position. To clarify, he said that maybe I should take a course towards my criminal justice masters.

However, right now I am trying desperately just to stay afloat while I wait for the job to come through. Furthermore, I have tried to get on with a security firm (Securitas, Allied-Barton) around the Boston area and have gotten absolutely no response.

Any thoughts? Any suggestions for places that I should perhaps direct my search for security work?

If you tried to get on Securitas or Allied-Barton, maybe you should check & see if you have a pulse. If no pulse is detected, dial 911 or apply to CMPS.org immediately .

Yeah. Apply to the United States Military, and ask for Uncle Sam.

Here's a tip, check out Beth Israel Hospital. They have security and police. I believe their security officers earn around $13 per hour, plus benefits. The wage may be higher now. They have a top notch staff with good equipment, pay, and benefits. Bob Johnson is the security manager there and I'm sure he'd be able to answer any of your questions. Good luck!
