If you’re interested in a career with the Michigan State Police, the hiring process is getting easier. They’re coming to you.
Michigan State Police (MSP) says they are streamlining their hiring events to attract potential troopers and motor carrier officers starting immediately.
“We know there are several factors that could impact whether someone is able to take the necessary steps to apply and test for one of our recruit schools,” said Col. James F. Grady II, director of the MSP. “We are removing barriers like access to a laptop or transportation and physically meeting candidates closer to their homes to make the process more accessible, efficient and effective.”
At each hiring event, MSP Recruiters will be onsite to administer the entry-level law enforcement exam and assist with completing the application for trooper and motor carrier officer positions.
F/Lt. Brian Buege is the commander of the MSP Recruiting and Selection Section and says this is one of several new tactics they are using based on feedback from candidates themselves.
“Many applicants have questions that are better answered one-on-one and in-person. We have full time recruiters dedicated to making authentic connections and helping however they can.”
Twenty hiring events are being held in various cities throughout the state through the end of the year. The first event is Tuesday in Lansing. You can view the full list and other events where you can find MSP recruiters on their website. MSP says time and location specifics will be added closer to each event’s date.
