I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Milwaukee Police Department
Interview
The interview was split into 2 parts. I had to present an analysis project and then was asked a couple of questions by 3 different people. The questions did not relate to the project as I thought they would but instead were your typical interview questions. The interview experience was average, I guess. VERY stoic people which honestly threw me off - it just made it seem like they weren't interested in interviewing the candidates.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Milwaukee Police Department (Milwaukee, WI) in Oct 2017
Interview
The Interview for the Milwaukee Police Department came in multiple parts. The phone screen/quick questions came first followed by an offer to come in for a full interview. The full interview consisted of 4-5 officers, from sergeant to captain. A range of officers and employees involved in media would ask questions that were pertinent to the position and the department, while other officers would ask general attitude and aptitude questions. All were very courteous and kind, while still remaining very professional and stern.
