Wouldn’t it be great to know in advance which police oral board questions would be asked at your police oral board? Whether you are interviewing to get hired as a police officer or deputy sheriff - or if you are facing an oral board or assessment center for promotion to the ranks of corporal, sergeant, lieutenant, or captain - the police interview panel is seeking the right candidate to serve in the vacant position.

Entry-level police oral board questions tent to focus on decision-making, judgment, and communication skills whereas promotion oral interviews and assessment centers measure influence answers such as discipline and leadership in addition to police knowledge and technical elements.

The challenge is that the number of police oral board questions can be overwhelming.

Reduce those elements to one or two word bullet points and you will have a pre-set structure for your responses.
