The Process:
The Charleston Police Officer Hiring Process consists of FOUR separate phases. You must pass each phase in order to advance to the next. The final decision concerning your employment will be made by the Chief of Police and will be based on information collected throughout the hiring process. In total, the process should take between two and four months.

PHASE I
COLLECTION OF DOCUMENTS AND APPLICATION
You must first collect and then attach the following documents to your City of Charleston Police Officer job application. These documents include:

Resume
Copy of Driver’s License
Official Driving Record from ALL states where you have HELD A DRIVER’S LICENSE
If the applicant served in the US military for any period of time, copy of DD-214 (Member 4 listing Characterization of Service, Separation and Re-Enlistment)
Birth Certificate/Naturalization Certificate
If you are a certified law enforcement officer from outside S.C., a photocopy of your state certificate and training academy curriculum with hours.
Documentation of expungement for any criminal charge or conviction (not including traffic violations).

All documents must be attached to your application.

PHASE II
TESTING
If selected to move forward, you will take part in a three-day testing battery of the following:

Physical Agility Test
For detailed information on the Physical Agility Test, click here. If you do not successfully complete the Physical Agility Test, you will have the opportunity to return on a different date to re-take the physical agility test. Candidates who attain a passing score on the physical agility test will advance to the written examination that afternoon.
Written Examination (National Police Officer Selection Test):
The POST is made up of four separately-timed test sections. The first three sections (Mathematics, Reading Comprehension and Grammar) utilize multiple choice and true/false formats. The fourth section, Incident Report Writing, requires you to write out your answers in complete sentences in the spaces provided in the test booklet. Though most of the questions in this test battery relate to police duty, no prior knowledge of law or law enforcement will be needed to answer the questions. Applicants scoring above 70% will advance.
Interview:
Candidates who successfully complete the physical agility and written examination will be scheduled for an oral interview, conducted by a panel of current CPD employees. The applicant will be assessed on dimensions of work history, education, training, community service, customer service, and interpersonal skills.
Polygraph:
After completing the interview, the applicant will be required to submit to a polygraph examination. During the polygraph the applicant will be asked questions pertaining, but not limited to, honesty in handling money and merchandise with present and previous employers, use of drugs, alcohol, gambling habits, arrests and/or convictions. The applicant should be prepared to answer questions concerning undetected crimes they may have committed and their involvement in any previous or current investigations.

PHASE III
BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION

Applicants who successfully pass the testing phase will be notified by the background investigator that a rigorous and thorough background investigation will be conducted to review applicant information obtained from but not limited to: DMV abstract, consumer credit report, criminal history check, any and all social media accounts, and interviews with previous employers, teachers, neighbors, landlords, and personal references. The applicant will also have a personal interview with the background investigator.
Applicants not moving forward to the background investigation phase will be notified by CPD staff.

PHASE IV
CONDITIONAL OFFER, MEDICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL EXAMS
The results of phases 2 and 3 are reviewed and the top applicants will be sent a conditional offer of employment. If the applicant accepts the conditional offer, they will proceed to the medical and psychological examinations.

Applicants not selected must wait one year from the date the background investigation is completed to reapply and must take part in the entire selection process.
