Hiring outline

  1. Online application, departmental fitness, McCann written exam, polygraph/background, administrative interview, civil-service certification, psychological and medical screening. Listed polygraph section references background material although preceding background heading; exact sequencing and conditional offer need clarification. Approximately six months is an estimate.

Availability and terms need confirmation.

City, not Bethlehem Township. Recruiting page says applications closed June 12, 2026 and anticipates fall cycle without confirming reopening. Waitlist is not an application; none submitted. No salary, academy funding or active JobPosting inferred. Historical medical/legal criteria need current confirmation rather than automated eligibility decisions.
