Toronto Police Are Hiring New Officers With No Previous Experience And The Salary is $62,000
If you have been interested in joining the local police force, this may be your opportunity. The Toronto Police Services is now hiring new Police Cadets-in-Training and the salary starts at $62,000. Plus, all the education you need to apply is your high-school diploma.
That's right, the Toronto Police are now looking for full-time cadets in a variety of locations around the Toronto area, with no previous experience required. Some of the key responsibilities that you will be undertaking in the day to day of the job would be conducting investigations, attending court, and providing support after traumatizing incidents.
Of course, while the only education requirement is your secondary school diploma or it's equivalent, there are still other requirements that you need to meet before you can apply for this job.
The Toronto Police are stating that those who apply must be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada and at least18 years old. They must also be able to pass security clearance and background investigations in education, employment, personal history, credit, and reference checks.
Of course, they are also looking for applicants who are both physically and mentally fit to perform the everyday tasks of an officer. This includes being able to protect yourself and have regard to your own safety and the safety of those who are around you.
