4.0 out of 5 stars LAPD candidates..., February 21, 2000

By	Jaepee (Montebello, California, U.S.A) - See all my reviews

This book provides all the fundamentals of the LAPD selection process. The author, an L.A. police officer, furnishes the reader with invaluable information, such as the various questions of the police interview, the content of the background investigation and interview, and the essential qualities of a Los Angeles police officer. Though the book is out-dated (1997) and some of the numbers have changed (police salary and # of sworn LAPD officers), it nevertheless gives a reader an overwhelming advantage. I can attest to this, as I bought the book months ago and just successfully passed the LAPD police officer interview. I was well-prepared because of this book; not only was I able to pre-formulate detailed answers to several questions, I also went into the interview confident and poised. If you are planning to join LAPD, purchase this book as well as BOOT: An LAPD Officer's Rookie Year, by Willaim C. Dunn. These two titles will better-prepare any police officer candidate!
