I thought it would just be on the grocery store? after they turned east onto hamilton? didn't know they can have a continue to eastbound thing and go past the 1st landmark

Thank you for your channel and service. Recently, I applied to a local City Police Dispatcher position in North Texas. I was required to turn in the personal history statement by January 01, 2025. I turned the paperwork on December 18, 2024. I've been working in private security since June of 2015. I have no issues with working any shifts, long shifts, or the overtime. Currently, I am listening to serval of your videos. Thank you

i’m so nervous. mine is in 3 hours

Thank you for this video🙏

What if there are things from long ago that you can't remember, you've been disciplined for tardiness, called in sick when you weren't, or attempted suicide? Would any of those disqualify you? Also how do you obtain a Certificate of Naturalization because I need to get one for the dept. I'm applying to ?

lol I'm taking my test soon thank you!!!

@The Raspy Dispatcher I was just given a conditional offer with my county and now have to complete a Psych Evaluation. What can I expect from this? I don’t think I’ve ever completed one before. I believe this is the last step I need to complete before being considered a true Trainee. I am confident that I’ll be fine but am very curious since I have read that people have failed at this stage. Thanks in advance!

Great channel. Do you think a single mom with a young kid could be a dispatcher, without the ability to work night and weekend shifts?

As a retired Dispatcher, Dispatcher Trainer, Dispatcher Supervisor, Dispatch Manager and Division Manager, you hit the nail on the head with this video. Good job! Very useful information.

thank you for sharing the voices of dispatchers! i’m currently going through backgrounds to be a trainee in my city and your videos have been beyond helpful. thank you so much!

I'm taking the exam in March in NYC. I'm worried about my medical and psychological exam. Not the multiple choice. 😂 Isn't that something.

I feel like I'd be so good at this job but everyone on reddit says it wrecked them 😭

So good keep going

Hello, i'm deciding if I want to apply to be a 911 dispatcher. I'm just scared haha

Proud to have been part of this video! Thank you for all your efforts to show people what we do!

God bless you ❤

Coming back months later to say that I got two job offers after watching your videos. Thank you!

Hello. I am a current applicant for my local county. I have completed my PHS and my background officer just submitted my background check to whomever it may concern. My question is: Are the questions on my polygraph (irrelevant not included) limited to only the questions submitted in my PHS? will there be additional questions?

@The Raspy Dispatcher I just passed my critical test! I took the test a few times years ago but am excited to finally be chosen to move onto the interview/shadowing stage! Your videos have been very helpful and I will be watching many more to help me prepare for my interview!

I see questions, but i don't see a map in the pdf. @theraspydispatcher

My panel interview is in 3 days… wish me luck! I am super excited

Thank you so much! I have my test this Thursday.

Thank you!!

Oh I’ll ask this question today

Got an interview today

Thank you so much for all the info! I’ve been through all the steps leading up to my initial background interview(which is tomorrow!!) your insight has helped a lot with my nerves and what to expect and hope for!

God bless you for what you do! My dad was a police officer and there'd be days id beg him not to go to work 😢! I wanted to become a cop like him but i think God has other plans for me! One way i can serve God is by being a dispatcher! I mean im not there but there ar the same time! Pray for me as i find my calling in life! God bless y'all in Jesus name Amen 🙏

Thanks, for your videos. I start training here in Ohio in January 2024.

Thank you very much for this outline. I'm taking my test in 2 weeks and this helps with my preparation! 😊

Omg I wished I came across your podcast a long time ago, this preparation I did not know. I had my first 911 dispatch interview with a desired department but I have doubt I didn’t do very well. I still attempted and answered all their questions they asked me. I was not prepared enough which I’m beating myself for. I have 3 to 4 years of dispatch experience working for a college university on the Public safety level not exactly 911 but I wish I would have came across this source of information much sooner. I’m still waiting for my results and it’s been a week. I would love to get a second chance but it feels like you only get 1 chance 😢

“It’s not an emergency, but…” (Call the Non Emergency Line) “Can’t you just map me?” (They Can’t) [I think] “I didn’t call 911” (Well someone did, could be you with your short term memory loss) “Is this 911?” (You dialed 9-1-1 into the keypad, so of course)

Great video . I wish they had schools/ training here in California LA area .

I have always had a passion for helping people as a 911 Dispatcher, it was a dream of me to become one. Ever sense I had 2 seizures in my room 😭😭😭😭my mom and brother were on the phone with 911 Dispatchers who kept them calm the entire time when I was shaking in front of them and that made me strive to help save others lives as a Dispatcher. I looked up videos concerning 911 Dispatchers to learn about becoming a Dispatcher because I really want to be one and I found you. My boyfriend is one and both of you are helping me so far, I just applied for a Dispatcher position, I haven’t heard anything from them yet, I have butterflies in my stomach but just wanted to say thank you for these Tips they was very helpful ❤️❤️❤️❤️oh yes I forgot to mention I am a new subscriber too; however, I will be watching more of your videos now.

😂😂😂❤❤❤ #accurate. One month left of training and my family and friends and kids all think I've legitimately gone insane or snapped. My ditz tendency has become full fledged can't remember anything at all ever that isn't coding or call related hahaa

RIP❤

Wait, where can I access the panel handbook for an interview guide?

Imagine the number of people she helped and the lives she saved. My prayers are with Priscilla's family and her Dispatch family.

Please drink water

Is this the same as the Nex Test?

Terrific video RD! The only suggestion I have after watching some of your videos is to bring up the level on your audio. The content of your videos is very good and educational for dispatchers and communication officers.

Hi! i’m currently going to do a polygraph next week and i will admit that in the past i was peer pressured into certain things that i was not very comfortable in wanting to do will that automatically disqualify me?

I have a question, is there like a certain degree or program you have to go into to be able to be a 911 dispatcher.

Oh my gosh!! I really needed to hear this 🥹 it’s been tough getting criticism for 12 hours at a time, 4 days a week and trying so hard to remember everything I’m told. Surviving day to day and praying it gets easier ❤️

Well spoken ❤ i just had my panel interview yesterday im hoping to hear good news soon

This is a fascinating guest. I love hearing about the way his career has played out over time. It's incredibly inspiring.

You have no idea how helpful you are. Blessings.

If post is all done in paper does this mean all this training won't really help? Or will we be able to use computer during the post test? Or should I be writing all of this down in paper with the data entry? I am using job test prep to prepare and using your resources as well but since I am doing the POST test idk if this can help :(

Hi! Thank you so much for your videos! I am preparing for the Criticall test and am trying to download your PDF but I don't see one called "Critical Criticall" on the link to your website. I do see 3 dispatch practice tests, a map practice and panel interview prep worksheets. Is it one of these or am I missing something? Thank you for your help

Hi I have a question. I’m applying to be Cal Fire dispatcher. Do you know if this dispatch position is much different than 911 dispatcher?

You are awesome for doing this!
