Police Recruitment Experience and Assessment Day (with photos)
**************************************************************
The event consisted of three thematic sessions: (1) Selection workshops for Probationary Inspector / Police Constable; (2) Police Unit Display / REC Talk / Sharing of Training Experience; and (3) Physical Fitness Test Workshop. Recruitment stations were set up to facilitate participants to submit application and undergo initial screening on the spot. The five “Recruitment Spokepersons” also participated in READ for the first time to share information about the recruitment process with visitors.
Participants attending the Physical Fitness Test (PFT) Workshops experienced the four fitness test items, including 800m run, 4x10m shuttle-run, vertical jump, and handgrip strength test. Participants, meanwhile, can take part in the Group interview (GI) for Recruit Police Constable after joining the Selection workshops. The successful results for both Physical Fitness Test and Group interview will be valid for three months.
Thematic talks on recruitment (REC Talk) were also held to allow participants to gain a better knowledge of the police work. To meet the needs and interests of participants, the topics were selected among those proposed by the participants during application period. In addition, several trainees and course instructors shared the training lives with visitors.
A range of police units, including the Railway Response Team, the Family Conflict and Sexual Violence Policy Unit, the Missing Person Unit, the Police Tactical Unit, the Police Dog Unit, and the Force Escort Group, exhibited their equipment and introduced their work and duties to visitors.
