Hi. I have a question about background checks and employment history. I have always wanted to work in law enforcement. However, I ended up in tech and have had many jobs in the last ten years. Some companies have gone out of business. I'm getting up there in age as well but feel as though this is the career I want and I have never given up on this. I am very unsure how this is perceived by the oral review boards and lately I can't even get a dispatch job so it must look like I've bounced around ... but I am always given good references and there was a steady progression for the most part in tech. It was just the wrong direction for me.
I passed a background exam once for an auxiliary department in MA so maybe this isn't as much of an issue as I think it is.
I did well in school, never got into any trouble as a kid, and will go back to grad school for my Master's in CJ.
Anyone care to give me their thoughts/opinions on the background investigation portion?
Thanks.
