Hi All,

I got interview last week and I got an offer at one of the location of LA County Sheriff Dept. I accepted the offered and I filled out the paper work,etc etc... did finger print.

My question is... how long should I wait? What is comes next? Is it true that they will check the credit report? Is it true that they will do the polygraph? Is it true that since I am citizen by naturalization, they will check my immigration status when, where, and how I come to USA?

I am sorry it such a long and lots questions. Btw I'm not apply to federal prison, just regular county jail. Thank you.

I applied to sd county correctional . After the initial interview, id say like 2 weeks later I answered a 200 question background questionnaire. So with the county they make you take a certified voice stress (cvs) test as part of the requirement for hire. Before the cvs you answer 200 questions regarding and history of stealing, abuse, drugs, fraud, marriage, child Media, public sex. They want to know it all lol. Felt a bit intrusive but oh well. The whole point of the cvs is to see if you’re lying about your past and present life. The questions and cvs test are done on separate days. When I took and passed the cvs I was finger Printed then a couple days after offered a job contingent I pass tb and physical.

The 200 questionnaire and the cvs are done on separate days. My background was done after the questionnaire and completed by the time I did my cvs.
