Police Chiefs Association of Bucks County, PA

PoliceApp has partnered with the Police Chiefs Association of Bucks County (PCABC) to offer regionalized testing and recruitment. All agencies are Equal Opportunity Employers.

 

How It Works

Pay one fee + Take one physical assessment + Take one written exam = Valid test results for 12 months

Your twelve-month application eligibility period begins on the date you take the written exam. During this 12-month period, you may apply for any position advertised by a department participating in the PCABC program, provided you meet that department’s minimum score requirements, as well as any other department-specific prerequisites.

Value

Disclaimer

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Association reserves the right to authorize additional testing within the same 12-month period. Although that will not affect the eligibility of any applicant who has successfully completed the exam process to apply for any of the participating departments, the Association cannot guarantee that each department will continue selection of candidates having successfully completed physical assessments and examinations preceding any such additional testing.

Neither PCABC nor PoliceApp can control how many departments will recruit over the course of any given twelve-month period. A minimum number of open positions cannot be guaranteed. Each department is responsible for its own hiring standards, prerequisites, and hiring timeline. No additional charges will be assessed by PoliceApp during the twelve-month eligibility period. All agencies are Equal Opportunity Employers.
