If you're looking to escape the great Northeast, San Diego could be your destination! For those who see "sheriff" and roll your eyes, sheriff's deputies in California get the same training as municipal police and are considered law enforcement officers (think ch. 90 - yes 
) This recruitment period is open until Feb. 10th.
THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT IS HIRING!
The San Diego County Sheriff's Department has three bureaus within the department: Detentions, Court Services and Law Enforcement. All three bureaus provide excellent career paths and promotional opportunities. We have 2 classifications of sworn positions; Deputy Sheriff Cadet Law Enforcement and Deputy Sheriff Cadet Detentions/Court Services. We are currently testing and hiring for both positions.
You must apply on-line for each position and then register to take the written exam. The pre-employment exam is the second step toward an exciting career with the San Diego Sheriff's Department. It is only ONE exam for BOTH positions, so apply for both!
The hiring process averages 4 months to over a year, depending on your background. If you are currently in the military, you should apply a minimum of 6 months prior to your estimated End of Active Service. You can find a practice exam under Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page under Written Exam. In addition, you can find more about the hiring process under the FAQ page under Hiring Process.
