I am female 27 years old this year, just graduated with a degree from SIM UOL. I applied online for police and prisons (SPO position) but was rejected via email. I was never called for any interview. I do not know the reasons for rejection.
As it is always my dream to join these uniformed group, i will keep trying. I do not want to wait another 6 months and then apply again. How do i get in to police or prisons? What can i do?
Help pls!
keep trying
Hey Nerds,
Nice knowing there are keen female counterparts applying on SO. For me, I will be going for the first round on SA interview and physical assessment this Wednesday, am 27 as well :).
To increase your chances, you may do the following:
- include a cover letter on your application.
- improve the relevance of your resume and hard sell yourself through various physical aspects, activities management and also to promote your extra curriculum activites involvement
- indicate and highlight on your ability to cope physically. In comparison with guys, how competitive are you (e.g. ippt gold for female standard)
Hope it helps.
- provide a photo in your resume and improve on your resume aesthethic.

The only thing u need to prepare is urself.. get enough rest so u can focus on the psychometric test which is quite exhausting. There is a short essay which u'll have to write, based on the question that they give to u.
