What to Expect as an Applicant
An applicant is someone who has applied for a job in public safety and has been selected by an agency to move forward with a Pre-Employment Psychological Evaluation. This evaluation is always scheduled by the agency, never by the applicant. If you have questions regarding this process please reach out to your agency before calling the office. We are exclusively use remote testing but interviews are done in person.
​
Please note that our office does not offer second opinion Psychological Evaluations.
Scheduling and Proctored Testing:​
-
Your agency will contact Dr. Roland’s office directly to request the
pre-employment evaluation. Once we have received the request, we will
begin the scheduling process. You will receive two emails. One from
WeProctor (our testing vendor). It will include your appointment date and
time and have paperwork for you to complete. You will receive another
email from our office that will include the date and time of your interview
and will also have an attached form that you will need to complete and
return to us. -
Testing begins promptly at 8:00 AM PST and can take up to 5 hours to
complete. Please plan your day accordingly. -
During the testing process, you need to be alone and undisturbed. Testing
can only be completed on a laptop or computer with a camera and
microphone. Cellphones and tablets are not acceptable.
Interview:​
-
Once testing is completed, you will have an in-person interview with Dr.
Roland. You will have already received a confirmation email of this
appointment prior to your testing.* -
The interview takes 1-2 hours, so please plan your day accordingly.
After your interview:
-
Reports are sent directly to the agency to whom you are applying. You will
not be provided any details from the evaluation. Any questions you have
regarding your results should be brought to your agency. All final hiring
decisions are made solely at the discretion of the agency.
