Lockie101

Haven’t had much of a chance to get on here but I missed the ASO by 1 mark on the clerical checking but passed the other two so overall a fail... ah well, heading back over to the mainland very soon for the final stage of another recruitment campaign anyways

I know this isn't police related but just incase it interests anyone. MI5 are currently looking for a business support officer.
Closing date is end of this week.
Full civil service benefits same as police etc £26k a year.

Also got told today that MI5 will be hiring around Sept time for their N.I Security protection teams.
And the NCA are also due to be hiring in Sept too for N.I.
Just in case anyone who isn't in the running for Police wants to apply for a diff type of law enforcement.

In addition to the above of you do apply DO NOT tell anyone.

Can someone clarify - I’ve seen the NCA wear “police” branded clothing for identification purposes but they aren’t really police? In the sense that while their officers have the powers and privileges of a constable, they aren’t actually constable a/special constables? What are they then? “Officers”? “Investigatiors”? Are they police without being a police force? Are they law enforcement?

*Applies to MI5*

*Instantly changes facebook employment to “Working at MI5”

Wouldn’t put it past some people Banterbus XD

Funny you should say that but there are constables who post their photo job and station on LinkedIn... Police staff too. Idiots. Complacent.

Lockie101

Haven’t a clue about the danger they are putting themselves and other in by doing it... Absolutely stupid

NCA have full police powers when theyare conferred them.

They can also be co opted the powers of a customs officer and a border officer. They callcit being triple hatted.

That makes sense. Thanks. Not all NCA officers need powers...hence why they aren't attested.

They are basically given the powers they need for their specific task/assignment. Including being armed.

7. NCA officers will be able to hold the respective powers of a constable, immigration officer and customs officer but they are not ‘office holders’. An NCA officer who is designated with operational powers is not therefore a constable, nor are they an immigration officer or customs officer – if designated they can hold the powers of those offices, but they will not hold the office itself.

Clear as mud!

Banterbus28

Constables from UK forces can do secondments with the NCA though 😎

Once you are in the police the number of possible jobs you can do will blow your mind.

I'm sure that gig at the paramilitary crime task force is some show! Would love to be involved in operations disrupting some serious criminality.

Public Protection branch and child internet protection section for me.

But if i get dogs i'll never leave 😂😂😂

Did u pass interview for cdo

Banterbus28

Just so you guys are aware by the time you's start the pay will be more than advertised. Then add 20% for shift allowance and pay will be circa 24k for CDOs and CHs.

I didn’t pass the initial assessment for that, same as for the dispatcher, passed the assessment but didn’t score high enough for an interview.

I honestly don’t know what to do , weather to take the call handler job or not as I’m in a good job at the minute 🀔

Also, anyone any idea what sort of training programme would follow successful appointments? I know I have a long way to go before even thinking about that, but it just occurred to me that I've read nothing about training

Kellz133714

Anyone know how many ASO’s they’ll be looking to start? Don’t mind when, just curious.
