So you have decided to take the first step and complete an Application Form.
If you want to have the best possible chance of passing through the first stage of the police recruitment process, read on…
With our Special Constable / Police Officer Application Form Checking Service, we do our very best to ensure that your form meets the required standard, first time. Around 65% of applications fail at this stage.
An important thing to remember is that if your Application Form is rejected, you will have to wait at least six months before you can re-apply.
Our Application Form Checking Service is currently available for candidates applying for the role of Police Officer, Special Constable (SPC) and Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) in all force areas in England and Wales (the Scottish application system is somewhat different).
About Our Application Form Checking Service
When you order ‘Police Application Form Checking’ (via our online store) we will send you our guide to completing the forms. When you have completed your answers, simply send them to us via email. We will return your checked answers within five working days, with our comments and suggestions.
Your Application Form will be checked by current trained police assessors, not retired staff who are no longer ‘in the loop.’ If you follow our suggestions, and subsequently fail the paper sift, we will refund your fee, minus our pay pal charge of £2.00.
What Does The Application Form Checking Service Cover?
We will only check the competency questions on your Application Form. We cannot tell you what to write, the examples should be truthful and come from situations you have genuinely been involved in. You are applying to join the police service and honesty is extremely important.
Once you have paid for our Appliction Form Checking Service, you can return your Application Form to us as many times as you feel necessary, all at no extra cost.
If we suggest improvements to your Application Form and you choose not to follow our advice and are rejected, you cannot expect us to take the blame if you fail.
We may receive a large number of Application Forms to check over a five day period so send them to us in plenty of time. We reserve the right to limit the number of forms we check; in which case of course we will immediately refund your payment in full (we would rather check a few forms thoroughly than a small mountain ineffectively).
If your Application Form arrives and we think it is good, we will say so, and may only suggest minor changes to it. If we think it is good enough to pass, what more can we say? What you do gain however is the assurance that you should pass the paper sift.
We cannot promise your Application Form will definitely pass. Anyone who says they can make that promise is lying to you. We say this because there are often anomalies in the marking system. For example, some staff may be stricter than others when marking. We have heard of one candidate who submitted an Application Form which was successful. The candidate subsequently failed their Day 1 Assessment and after a six month wait re-applied, submitting the exact same Application Form, which was rejected!
Remember we promise to refund your checking fee (minus £2.00 pay pal fee) if your Application Form is rejected for any reason whatsoever to do with the competencies.
Please note however, that if your Application Form is paper-sifted because you missed a section out, sent it in coffee stained or incorrectly spelled your name (no we're not joking), we cannot be held responsible for that.
If your Application Form is unsuccessful e-mail or post us a copy of your form as you submitted it, together with a copy of your rejection letter. We will then refund your checking fee by personal cheque.
What does it cost?
The cost of our Police Application Form Checking is just £30.00 and is very good value for money in comparison to our competitors.
You can send your application form to us as many times as is necessary, until we are both happy with it.
