The PARMEDX (Physical Activity Readiness Medical Examination) is to be completed and signed by a physician prior to the selected test dates for applicants 40 years of age or older, and for applicants diagnosed with high blood pressure before they will be permitted to participate in the physical test.

Will my experience in the Military help?

Each applicant is viewed individually. Military service is neither an advantage nor a disadvantage.

How long will it take before I know if I am successful?

There is no concrete answer to this question. The selection process is complex and therefore will take some time. Should an applicant not be successful in any part of the selection process, there may be a required waiting period as long as 1 year before being eligible to try again. Results of other Police Services interviews and other areas of testing are also considered and will determine if there is a waiting period before you know if you are successful or may re-apply.

How many times can I re-apply if I am unsuccessful in my application?

There is a three month waiting period from the time your application is closed before you can re-apply.
