The first stage of the Recruitment process for MPS will be to make an application using the form which can be found in the discord and reading Apply Here! . All applicants must be 15+ years of age unless spoken with Gold Command, and you should have a roleplay-based mindset as we encourage a good standard of roleplay in the MPS. Before creating an application, make sure you meet the requirements here.
Once you have submitted your application, it will then be reviewed within 24 hours by a member of COP. You must answer the questions correctly and be truthful with your answers.
Depending on the standard of your application, you will be informed with an Accepted or Denied message. You will then be asked to follow a few steps in order to take your interview in HDN's MPS discord server.
Interview Stage
Once you make it to this stage then huge congratulations to you! Firstly, you should open a ticket in Apply Here!. Soon after, you will be invited to a interview call with our COP members through your ticket to undergo an interview. There you will be asked a variety of different questions regarding MPS procedures as well as HDN's server rules.
At the beginning of your interview, you will be asked to read the E-Library if you haven’t already. You should answer all questions to the best of your ability and with your own knowledge. If you do not know a question then don’t hesitate to take another read of the E-Library. Your interviewer will give you enough time to answer each question. The MPS E-Library covers everything that you need to know, so you must read this to be able to pass your interview.
Each answer is written down and will be marked on a scale of zero to five to determine your knowledge. At the end of the interview, you will be moved to a separate channel whilst your interviewer calculates your score. If you reach the pass mark you will then be told the next steps to the recruitment process.
However, if you fail your interview then don’t worry! You will be given a couple of chances to prove that you are worthy of joining. Your interviewer will also go over your incorrect answers to make sure you understand for next time. The first cooldown is 24 hours, the second cooldown is 48 hours, the third cooldown is 168 hours, if you fail all three you will be asked to speak to a member of Gold Command in order to decide whether or not you should make a new application.
Basic Training
Once you have completed your interview you are now onto the last stages of your recruitment process. You are to undergo: basic training, five hours of ridealongs, and then a final exam. In your basic training, you will be asked more questions and tested on your knowledge. You will then be taught basic knowledge of the force to ensure you are fully aware of your powers and responsibilities in the police. You will then do 5 hours of ridealongs with someone who is the rank of Sergeant or higher. They will log your hours and once all 5 hours are done, you will be able to undergo your final exam. Here is where you will be tested upon your knowledge and your experience during your PCSO experience. If you fail this exam, you will have to undergo 2 more hours of ridealongs and then will be able to attempt it again. If you pass the final exam, congrats, you are now a Police Constable!
