Answer 5

Depends on the jurisdiction. In Los Angeles, you need at least 4 years of patrol experience.  Then you're eligible to take the Detective's test.  Once you pass the test, you're scheduled for an oral interview.  The test and interview are weighed and you're given a score.  Your score is bunched up with others that are similar (placed in a band) and when positions are available, within 2 years, you're selected.  After 2 years, the list expires and if you're not selected, you get to do the whole process again.
