The list is up for all the projected upcoming tests for civil service 2015:
Police Officer - Cities & Towns and MBTA Transit Police apps will be accepted online starting 1/5/15 to 3/9/15 test projected 4/18/15 (No state list on this one supposedly, that is also subject to change) Environmental Police Officer C & D apps will be accepted online starting 1/5/15 to 2/16/16 test projected 3/21/15
Remember its the state civil service unit administering these tests, all dates and times subject to change without notice or warning! good luck to all who take them down the road!
I have a question about the upcoming correction officer 1 Civil Sevice exam for 2015. If anyone could give me their opinion it would be appreciated.
I have 10 years experience working as a security officer and would like to give this a shot but I'm also hesitant because I know there will be a lot of vets and people with college degrees taking it as well so I think my chances of getting in will be slim. Should I even bother paying $100 bucks, am I throwing money down a rat hole? lol.
For you vets that aren't able to attend the test on the 25th, make sure you sign up for one of the quarterly military make up examinations. It's a fairly simple process. Good ole Mass still hits you up with the $50 late fee though, its pathetic.
I just took the last one for 2013 civil service the beginning of this month, also figure in at last $30 for parking as well for the make up exam since there all held in Boston at the Ashburton Place building. That's if you park anywhere close to the building at least.
has anyone been able to sign up yet? site says accepting applications but appears to be the riddle of the sphinx to apply. any info would be very helpful.

DOC is almost always hiring. A few years ago I believe that they went through the entire list and had to test again so definitely take it if you are interested.
Put this in perspective kids... I got a 95 on the DOC test in 2011. 3 separate recruitment letters showed up over the following years... They're definitely hiring.
Did you pursue it? I went through the hiring process in late 2011, narrowly missed the situps, and could have gone through again but by that time I was looking more at the campus PD route that I ended up taking. I sometimes wonder if that would have been a better job.

Rumor***UNCONFIRMED** Boston will not be taking part in the upcoming exam. Trying to get a definite answer, but all my sources are mum. If I get more info I will post ASAP, please do same
The pattern they've (MSP) been on since piggy backing on the civil service test is every other test. There hasn't even been a class of the current list, thanks Deval.
I can see MSP staying on the CS test to save money. Boston really has no excuse to get off the test, unless they plan on leaving CS. Although, Boston is Boston and is an island of its own.
They do ask you if you've ever banged in sick though. And if you prefer to work alone or in groups.
