According to the book description
of Oral Interview Dynamics, The contents of this book are
designed specifically for law enforcement officers, front-line supervisors, and
managers who have reached the point in their careers where they are ready to
advance their rank. The focus of this information is on the police promotional
oral interview. In a majority of police agencies across the country the oral
interview is both the most critical part of the promotion process and the most
difficult.
An officers performance during
the oral interview is paramount because the process is highly competitive.
Officers must out-score others also vying for promotion. This is difficult in
that candidates may be competing against dozens or even hundreds of other police
personnel many of whom may have greater education or more experience.
The goal of this book is to
provide professional police officers with a highly effective and valuable
preparatory edge. This edge translates into real-world techniques,
easy-to-apply skills, and a wealth of information on how to be distinctive and
perform in an exceptional manner during the oral interview. The police officer
or supervisor who utilizes the content of this book correctly will stand out
among the other candidates, will be recognized, acknowledged and will receive
higher scores than those who entered the promotional process without such
preparation.
