Hi there, we apologize for the delay in our response. Yes, as long as the applicant is U.S. citizen and meet our other requirements, i.e., at least 18-years- old, have a high school diploma or GED, no felony convictions, can pass the POST entrance exam, are drug-free and physically fit, they may qualify for an interview as a Correctional Officer with GDC, regardless if the applicant is from out of the state of Georgia. Thank you for your question!
