Nursing at BOP Facility

Published

Anyone ever work in a BOP facility? What was the hiring process like? What was the work & facility like? I know every facility is different but I'm curious as to what it's generally like. Oh, was the documentation on paper or computer? I have had various correctional experience. Did you have any correctional experience before applying? Thank you!

I'm not sure where you are from, but the facility I interviewed at won't even let anyone start their position until the safety training is complete first.

I worked one in AZ. You stayed with a buddy until training. It was back logged back then

There is a rigorous physical test there the first or second day. Running, obstacles course, stairs with wearing a weighted vest, dummy drag. All of it is timed. Get in shape or no job.

I wouldn't exactly call the physical test rigorous...I am in my mid 40s, somewhat overweight and not in great shape and I had no problems. If you are interested, give it a try!
