Researched hiring process & preparation

Partial profile reviewed 2026-10-23. Not proof of an opening.

Minimum requirements

  • The February 2025 beginner policy lists age 21 at employment, US citizenship, diploma, driving and firearms eligibility, conviction restrictions, communication and job-function requirements. Read the full policy.
  • Education timing needs reconfirmation: dated instructions describe obtaining 60 credits within five years after hire. Do not assume that provision governs a future intake.

Selected requirements, not a complete eligibility or disqualifier checklist.

Lateral entry

The separate experienced-officer page describes a continuous, expedited route with recent sworn-service conditions. It requires a labeled physical packet to City Hall and prohibits email/fax submission. Do not reuse the beginner email instructions; confirm eligibility and current instructions directly.

Recruiting contact

City Human Resources — confirm intake and packet route

bwieting@franklinwi.gov414-427-7505

Hiring outline

  1. For a new intake, follow its packet directions. The closed 2026 notice required three application responses and a resume of no more than two pages.
  2. Completeness and minimum-qualification review.
  3. Department assessment may include oral interviews and background investigation; qualified names proceed to commission review.
  4. Commission eligibility-list and appointment decisions; a conditional offer and clinical/drug assessments are described. Confirm their exact sequence with HR rather than treating the policy sections as a fixed test calendar.

Physical testing

The policy requires fitness and vision capabilities but supplies no timed applicant fitness test. Ask HR for current test protocols; no numeric PT preset verified.

Benefits

The expired beginner notice described city-sponsored academy attendance. It does not establish the complete tuition, academy-wage or repayment terms for a future offer.

Hiring incentives

Availability and terms need confirmation.

The three-page policy is dated February 28, 2025. Preserve discretionary assessment wording; no fixed clinical sequence inferred. Expired-notice pay is not current recruit compensation. No active-opening schema or pay ranking.

Minimum requirements

  • Employer lists diploma/GED plus 60 semester college hours or equivalent quarter/trimester hours from an accredited institution, with at least a C grade-point average. Military/education/law-enforcement preference points are separate from the stated minimums; do not invent a military college waiver not stated here.
  • Age is stated as at least 21 and under 35 at application and eligibility-list establishment, subject to statutory exceptions. Valid driver license, corrected 20/20 vision and specified color distinction are named; complete current exceptions/accommodations require confirmation.
  • Employer says US citizenship or legal authorization to work in the US. This summary is not independent confirmation of complete Illinois peace-officer/firearm eligibility; confirm all current applicable requirements with the department.
  • A valid POWER card dated within one year from the exam date is listed. Confirm actual exam date, acceptable card/provider and any route-specific differences before testing or applying.

Selected requirements, not a complete eligibility or disqualifier checklist.

Lateral entry

Separate lateral application link and a 2026 published starting range appear, but complete experience, certification/reciprocity, college exceptions and screening differences were not reviewed. Confirm the exact current lateral posting; do not assume entry criteria or preference points create a lateral waiver.

Hiring outline

  1. Review the exact entry-level or lateral posting linked from the police employment page; no application or provider account was opened during this review.
  2. Employer overview lists written examination assessing judgment/problem solving, then panel interview with the Board of Police and Fire Commissioners.
  3. Subsequent components are background investigation, psychological evaluation and polygraph, followed for final candidates by medical examination and drug screening. This overview does not establish every step, conditional-offer timing, scoring/retest policy or all route-specific changes.
  4. Prepare the published education and current POWER-card documentation. Preference-point claims depend on the relevant criteria and supporting documents; no prior service or specialty assignment is universally required.

Physical testing

Published requirement is a valid POWER card within one year of the exam date, not a year from the date you read this page. Numeric events/cutoffs, providers, fees, retests and accommodations were not reviewed.

Current costs, eligibility, agreement and benefit terms were not independently checked; no universal guarantee or academy-funding promise.

Hiring incentives
