What should I do in new york city?

If i get my degree and move to new york city what are the chance of being a new york police officer?

  • if i move after i get my 4 year degree in law enforcement in new mexico and then i move to new york city how likely am i to get the job as a police officer in new york city?

  • Answer:

    Why not join up with a New Mexico cop shop first? NM is a beautiful state and a great place to get experience. After a few years, try to get on with NYPD. It's always better to go after your dream job when you already have a job. Good Luck!

you would prob get it. But why NYC? Many rough jobs. check newyorkstate.policeacademy.training.in… Salary, in academy 50,374 after academy 66,905 after 1 year 71,261 after 5 years 84,739 after 20 years you can retire. But if you stay on, you get paid, but retirement doesn' go any higher than after 20 years.

The same as anyone else who tries out with at least 60 semester hours of college. Bachelors and above are welcome but do not impact the hiring process in large departments. You meet the minimum and do very well on all of the tests (less than 7% of all those who apply make it to the academy of NYPD, let alone the street) and you have a chance. The fact that your degree is in law enforcement influences no one in the hiring process and is looked down on (as are criminal justice degrees) by the instructors in the academy. They now must get you to understand that you have to forget all the BS you learned in college.

There is absolutely no way to tell. We know nothing about you as far as aptitude, background, prior drug use, traffic record, etc, etc. If you have a perfectly clean record and your background is ok then your chances are about 1 in 50 or so.

Deal with that issue if you get that degree.
