Hi, when I applied for Criminalist on the 29th of march the thread said it was open I specifically checked the list because I saw LEO wasn't open at the time so I wanted to make sure it was ok for me to apply.
Oh. My bad then! But yeah, as I mentioned, it depends on the number of the criminalists we currently have and the decision of the officer-in-charge whether we need more or not. So if your application was left hanging, it means we're currently okay on the staff, but they'll be reviewed when the time comes!
It would have been nice if there was some communication to tell me that rather then just letting me hang waiting for a reply. They could have even just replied thank you but we are full and I would have been happy but the way it has been handled has put me off
I'm sorry about that. I'm not really involved in the recruitment myself, but you can try to reach out to Kathleen Adams/Jacqueline Coburn regarding it.

Hello,

Believe what has happened with regards to this is that the Civilian Employment team have to process the PBA and such to ensure it's correct before it's kicked on over to Technical Services. (In this case, seeing as you applied for the role of a criminalist.). Communication regarding this delay should ideally have been addressed, or directed personally towards the Civilian Employment section via PMs.

The on-hold of the position of criminalists does not affect currently pending applications, and is not related to the reason why your application hasn't been pushed forward yet. The hold was applied to inform future potential applicants that there is a hold from here on out, or so is its intention.

A couple of months ago I heard a mechanic civilian position was going to be added to the department, was the idea dropped?

Hey!

I'm actually just returning back to GTA:W after a little break because I kept coming on to do immature things, my last ajail was 2 months ago (almost 3 as of the 17th of next month), and I'm just wondering if its worth my time to apply for the PD next recruitment draft or if I should just wait until the time after that.

Sorry for rambling I'm basically asking, what is the required time for me to wait from my last ajail to get accepted into PD?

Thank you!

Hi!

First of all don't feel bad for asking thats what this topic is for, and generally its around two months tops for ajails, and considering its going to be at least 3 months ago since your ajail until we open up recruitment I believe it is not going to have that much effect and I strongly recommend you giving it a shot!

Hope that helps!

Hi!

I joined a while ago and was in the process of my FTP. I resigned to take a break from GTA World with my IRL Job changing and other circumstances meaning I couldn't come on as much as I wanted too. Given I was a PO 1 and wasn't given the retired role on discord, does this mean I have to apply entirely from scratch? I've seen some other PO I's come back as a PO I and had to redo their FTP so was just wondering if this was the same case? Thanks! :)

You should file a reinstatement request, as you've been a faction member before. From there, they will get in contact with you and figure out the next best steps. Best of luck and hope to see you again soon!

Is it acceptable to make up Former Employment in the EXPERIENCE AND EMPLOYMENT section? In my character's background, I've written him as having worked for non-profit organizations as a volunteer - however, I don't know if ''Former Employment'' is supposed to be for organizations that actually exist and are being roleplayed in the game. (Could I, for example, say that he worked for ''Iron Paws Veterinary'' in the past, as a part of his background, even though such establishment doesn't exist in the server?)

It's perfectly acceptable to roleplay things like this, consider the fact people create education backstories etc which were never roleplayed on the server. Feel free to include this.

Hi. Good day to everyone that is viewing this. In my previous application, I've stated that my character, once roleplayed as studying for business marketing. I need to change this to language study. But, doing so could result me in denying the rule ''continuity''. But, I really want to change the course of the study as I am currently portraying it in my character. If I applied with different course of study but my previous application says vice versa, can I still apply? I need permission to change this. Thank you.

Hey!

In real life, it is often that people springboard/change their majors. If you're able to portray it in a realistic way whilst you are being screened, I do not see any issue. Thank you for your interest in the department.

Hi Brian, thanks for replying.

Yes, I understand that if I'm able to portray it in a realistic way, I am fine. But, what if I'm denied for the reason, continuity? Also, around a week ago, I received a ''not'' severe admin jail, it's my first time getting jailed tho. Is it fine if I apply when the recruitment drive open?

Unfortunately, you would not be able to gain entry into our faction given your circumstances. Thank you for your interest in the department.
