    I've been interested ever since I was a kid in joining the police dept. Just had a few questions for anyone that is, or knows of an officer.

    How do you like your job?

    What are the pros/ cons about it?

    Would you recommend it?

    Thanks for your help and time.

    I'm interviewing/testing to join APD this week.

    I'll let you know how the process goes.

    (I picked APD over HPD for a reason... I'll discuss it, but I want to avoid another one of those stupid city vs. city flamewars)

    OP- send me an email through the board. I've got a couple of friends I can forward your address to that are officers (not HPD). Might be able to give you some advice.

    I tried HPD several years ago. One of the more interesting job interviews I've ever had.
