I applied online. I interviewed at Cobb County Police Department
Interview
Before you are even called for an interview, you need to go through a whole process. First part is an online assessment. After passing a data entry exam online you are invited for a much more rigorous and tough exam.

Question 1
In order to pass the In-person assessment, my recommendation is to watch the 911 call videos on YouTube and try to grasp as much info. as possible because that's what happens at the examination and the hardest part is to understand and absorb maximum possible info. out of the diverse natured calls.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Cobb County Police Department
Interview
The interview process is lengthy but required to ensure the department is only hiring quality officers. The initial interview is made up of a myriad of tests. Be prepared to take an agility test first. If you pass that you will be given a face to face interview. Pass that and then you will take a physical exam, polygraph, and plan on spending an entire day with a psychologist. Pass everything successfully and you will do a final interview. During the entire interview process I was treated with respect. I recommend this very professional department to anyone who has a passion to provide professional police services to the citizens of Cobb County, GA.
