* | 2. | Police Officer Claim for In-Title Experience Credit: Credit will be given only for experience in the position title for which the examination is conducted. In other words, since you are taking the examination for municipal Police Officer, you can claim any experience you have had performing work ONLY as a Full Time, Reserve, or Intermittent Police Officer in a municipal police department before the date of the exam. While HRD may hold military make-up exam session(s) after March 23, 2019, HRD will not grant credit for experience accumulated after March 23, 2019. Calculating In-Title Experience Credit: You will receive 0.02 points for each month of creditable In Title Experience as a Police Officer added to your passing score. One month equals 172 work hours or 16 or more work days. Part-time work In Title Experience will be prorated on the basis of a 40-hour workweek. If you do not qualify for In Title Experience Credit, your overall score will be based on your examination score alone. Verifying In-Title Experience Claims: Supporting documentation must be provided in the form of a dated letter, signed by the appointing authority or your employer (past or present), identifying the position title, type of job responsibilities, dates of experience, whether the experience was full or part-time and other pertinent information concerning your experience. If the experience was less than full-time, the verification must include the actual time worked, e.g., number of hours per week. Letters of verification must be on original, official letterhead or stationery, with an original signature. Supporting documentation must be submitted by mail or email (civilservice@mass.gov) which must be postmarked within 7 calendar days of the written examination. (Note: Resumes will not be accepted as employment verification) |
