The Verona Police Department opened applications for new officers today. Candidates must already be certified by the New Jersey Police Training Commission (PTC), be a U.S. citizen and a New Jersey resident, and have a valid New Jersey driver’s license. Candidates will need to pass a background check, as well as medical, psychological and drug screenings.
The starting pay is $41,767 plus benefits, and the department operates on a 12-hour patrol schedule.
Applications will be accepted from Tuesday, August 9, through Monday, August 15 at www.policeapp.com.
Are we losing some excellent officers that we need to replace ?
There is 1 vacancy because a Verona police officer recently took a job elsewhere. But the department is anticipating 2 retirements.
