Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
In two weeks...
In two weeks I have a job interview for a PD dispatchers job. I know we have current and former LEO’s on here and was wondering what I can expect as far as questions and any tests I’ll have to take.
Thanks
Randy
It's dependent upon the agency. Do you care to mention it here?

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'
That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
In Fountain, just south of the Springs.

I've dealt with them before. Not a bad agency.
Most dispatch applicants go through a multi-tasking exam, in which they gauge your ability to listen, type and talk at the same time. That is either a go/no-go or a scaled exam. Then usually comes the oral board interview and a ranking for a hiring eligibility list. Those on that list will then go through a background investigation and dependent upon the agency, a polygraph and a psychological. I am not sure if Fountain requires the last two for their dispatchers. Most agencies do.

My advice is to make sure you tell them you wont tell cops over the radio to beat up old men or threaten the life of someone they just pulled over who has a ccw or any of the other crazy stories that have come up lately!
Good luck I hope you get it!
Started out in Dispatch. Good luck. Multi-tasking is their main focus.
I can't provide any insight, but just tell them Sharpienads from the AR-15 forum recommended you for the job...

Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.
