I’m in the process to be a county correctional police officer in New Jersey. How long does the background check take to hear back from the department ?? Anyone know ??
It appears that DOC officers are pushing extremely hard to infiltrate the ranks of front-line NJ police first responders. There are already way too many overlapping police agencies in New Jersey. Now it appears that the largest LE agency in the state wants to expand it's role in order to diversify it's function to benefit their own needs. The assumption being floated by DOC personnel is that their salaries will increase with the new title and that federal funding will also increase to grow their agency. The mission of the DOC is fairly specific, why change it? If you want to be a police officer , apply to a police department to work as one, don't change your job title and attempt to push your way into a duplicate role for self-serving reasons.
They are Correctional Police Officers and it has nothing to do with local pd, in fact the best local police officers are the ones that at one time served as correctinal peace officers. They don't benefit from anything and they have earned evething they stand for so i don't see how is this a negative thing. Not oto mention that these offecers do not get credit for what they do because is all done in a secure environment where the public has no clue of what goes behind close doors. Every local police deparment in Nj has members that at one point where part of doc and that is where it all started.
@Lucaro the good thing about becoming a correctional police officer is you already have experience with direct supervision. By the time you're hired by a local PD, you know how to deal with the public and know when a person has been incarcerated.
Congrats guys and gals. Keep your heads up and watch each other’s backs. Be proud and ignore negativity!

That first officer's hat is so low, how can she see?

I hope they finally taught these corrections officers how to treat people
You’ll be alright , inmate

@@lucaro1127 Every municipal PD in New Jersey has personnel that worked in the NJ DOC? That is not even remotely accurate.
Corrections: I was referring to those department that deal with the Civil Service Commission for hiring. Not the towns that deal with the Chief test.
You have a couple of departments that are Chief's Test Wayne PD, Secaucus PD, South Brunswick PD, NJ Transit PD.
