"Not Totally Safe but Secure Job with LAPD": LAPD Recruiters Want a Few Good Men and Women to Protect and Serve! Are you One?

"Not Totally Safe but Secure Job with LAPD": LAPD Recruiters Want a Few Good Men and Women to Protect and Serve! Are you One?

There has been a surge of applications for Los Angeles police officer jobs from September, October, November and December. Recruiters are taking advantage of the sour economy to offer good jobs to all willing to protect the surrounding communities. The message is simple these days, "Being a police officer might not be completely safe, but it is relatively secure..."

These times of economic uncertainty are causing many people apply for the police officer jobs. On the pages of the Daily News and various career websites, the LAPD is always looking for a few good men and women to protect and serve the LA communities. "Never have to face a layoff again! Start your new career today!"

At at a time when various police stations all over the nation are cutting down in order to balance their budget because of lower property taxes revenue and high defaults, LAPD comes out to offer layoff-proof jobs. The question is whether the hundreds and thousands of applicants can cut and survive long enough to wear the LAPD uniform. The statistics are grim, "only one in 10 or 11 applicants ends up in uniform."

It seems that there is a current push to hire as many people as possible in order to meet the 10,000-officer force by the Fall as requested by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. Staffing standards require that the department increase its officer ranks.

Officer I jobs promise starting salaries of $56,522 to $75,878 depending on education and experience.

Hurry up, people, put in your application now!
