TIL that carpets age badly <| sep |> We look for 4 major areas when looking for candidates . 1 . Work experience 2 . PostSecondary education 3 . Volunteer Experience 4 . Life SkillsWhen we are assessing a candidate we are not looking for a particular personality . That is the best part of policing as a career we are looking for a variety of people with different beliefs , abilities and values . We are a melting pot of different personalities just like the community we serve here in Victoria . Having a unique personality helps . Candidates have to be confidentand tend to attract type A personalities . At the end of the day this may sound like a cliche we want to hire good people with strong values and want to make a difference . Sgt Holmes here
