Frustrated by the Long & Complex NYPD Application Process? You are not alone!

Many candidates feel overwhelmed by the extensive paperwork, stringent exams and overall uncertainty of the application process.

Kevin Sheerin and his legal team are here to help you understand and successfully navigate through the NYPD Application – Hiring Process.

After you take the exam, the NYC Department for Citywide Administration Services (DCAS) will generate your “list number”. Candidates who pass the exam will be given a list number as well as an exam score ( NOTE: the higher your score, the lower your list number will be).

Once you pass the exam, the NYPD’s Candidate Assessment Division will email you an invitation to create a NYPD Candidate Portal account. Through this Portal, you will be required to complete the Personal History Questionnaire, as this is where your assessment process begins. You will also be asked to prepare and upload additional documents through the Portal (which you can find at NYPD Candidate Portal (nypdonline.org)

When you go to your first interview, you will be asked to bring and/or upload certain documentation. A list of the items you are required to upload and/or bring will be listed on your NYPD Candidate Portal after you complete your Personal History Questionnaire.

You can expect the hiring process to take an average of 6 months to 1 year to be hired. In rare cases the process can take as little as 2 months or as long as 4 years depending upon each candidate’s situation. Your exam is valid for four years from the date your list number is established.
