Here are some more tips to survive the correctional officer interview process! 

I got called back by WV Division of corrections on Monday, ive done all the paperwork and CSI, now I've got the interview on July 20th, I'm following the family tradition of law enforcement, I want to be an integral part of my community and help people grow in their rehabilitation, and protect my family and friends, I want to make my grandfather and great uncles proud too all three were Baltimore City Police

Great video Anthony! I like how you mentioned the evolution of the profession and how to not be "left behind". That is precisely what I envisioned when typing the e-mail and you put it into words beautifully . I will let you know how the interview goes in a few days and thank you for all the help you provide us, it is much appreciated by all of us. As an "outsider" to the profession , it's people like you that change the stereotypes of the career and allows it to re-shape into the current demand of our social landscape. A1

I retired in 2007 from CDCR after a 27 year career. The interview was easy, but the written test was three hours long! Talk about pencil paralysis!

This video gave me a lot of input and new ideas for when I Go to the police academy For corrections, officer training Thank you

Thank you for tip I pass the the interview if they going to move to the next step for the background

Looking at going into corrections myself with all that inmind myself I also see mental health for corrections as well as imates an corrections officer an there possibly being a faith based structure inside the walls as well somewhere I also think working on accountability,safety,an policies an correct procedure love your videos I feel leadership is huge to as well the way I was taught in the the fire service also was proform the way you practice weather its inside training or out in the field I also think there needs to be consistency in the training hours an more then just the baseline of 40 hr minimum for training just curious anothony on your thoughts I am a huge believer in the right policy's procedure structure training as well as better accountability in prisons accountability is huge where I come from in the fire service thanks

Thanks

9:30 am interview tomorrow! Ty

Is there a written test on the STC correction officer training.

Just landed a job with my states DOC, cant wait to start

Got an interview setup for Monday July 22,2024. I really want this job.

Anthony! Thanks again for all your videos. I finally became a CO and was welcomed into the family just 3 days ago. I’m getting hands on training right now sitting in on housing units. I NEED ADVICE. When I walked into the housing unit today, 4 out of the 40 inmates immediately began yelling obscenities to me. Remarks like “hey newbie you ain’t gonna make it here” and “hey look at the fresh meat!!!”. Granted, this is a county jail, not state. But these guys are really mean mugging me. I didn’t respond to them. Am I supposed to respond to empty comments like these comments? Make eye contact? Walk away or argue? I’ll be honest as a 30 year old man and military veteran, I was very nervous. I am nervous to go back, but I want this career in corrections. Yes this is my dream job. Yea I’ll continue to show up. I’m just admitting, I am nervous, sometimes afraid. Please give me your insight.

Hey Anthony, I’m new to your channel but I’ve been watching William Young for a while now, I have a question for you regarding the background. I’m in the middle of the hiring process with the agency I’m applying for, and yesterday filled out my PHS for the third party BC agency. When doing this, I remembered things I had previously forgotten about on the initial PHS that I turned in directly to the agency. It’s not really anything big, but i still am really worried they are going to think I was making an attempt to conceal something, and I really wasn’t. It’s pretty much just related to my work history. There were a few questions about whether or not I had left a job without giving notice, and I told them about one time more recently, but totally forgot about a couple of jobs since high school/college that I worked at for literally one shift, one of them I never even filled out paperwork or got paid for. So it seems understandable I forgot about them until I filled out my entire life work history going through previous years taxes. Again, no big deal, just don’t want them to see that as my trying to pull a fast one. The one that I’m much more worried about was my first job when I was 15, I worked there for a week or two, and was accused of stealing a waitress’s tips from a table. To be clear, I did not steal anything, or even think about it, but she seemed to think the tip was too small for me not to have taken part of it. It turned into me quitting and I haven’t thought about it since and I have never had such an accusation against me. This was years ago, and I totally forgot about it, but then remembered on my third party PHS. My question I guess is how can I go about explaining this to my recruiter, or IF I can explain that to them or are my chances shot? I’m sorry for the novel, and maybe this ain’t the best place for it, but I need some guidance. Surely I can’t be the only person who forgot something stupid like that at first. Should I be proactive and get out in front of it and call him on Monday to explain this mix up, or should I just wait until it comes up to try and explain? I truly wasn’t trying to conceal anything, I just forgot because it was such a long time ago and a very short part of my work history. Anyways, thanks, and keep up the great work on your content!
