Anyone work for the Sheriffs dept?

Question

I applied for a Detention Technician at the county Sheriffs office working in the jail. I have an written exam in 2 weeks that takes 2 hours! Does anyone know what kind of questions I should expect? Now I'm nervous! Serious responses only please. Thanks.

Answer 1

Most often the questions asked are general knowledge and questions that will "test" your honesty and integrity!

Don't sweat it...you'll do fine!

Answer 2

I have taken a pre-exam to work for the sheriffs department and it was basically common sense questions and questions that ask the same question in several different ways - it basically tells if you are lying or not. Its pretty much a test honesty as well as character. It also tells them if you have common sense that you will need on the job. Hope  I helped
