The Department hires both certified and non-certified individuals to serve as sworn police officers. Currently certified officers follow the same application procedure as non-certified applicants.
The Department hires through our pool of applicants who have successfully completed our pre-employment process. There are several steps involved:
- completed Town of Culpeper job application
- written examination
- thorough background investigation
- polygraph
- psychological evaluation
- several interviews
- medical examination
This process lasts approximately 90 - 180 days. Those applicants successfully completing all phases of this procedure form the pool from which the Department hires police officers.
