Here is my story: I just took a polygraph. The polygrapher made me admit to things that I should have not had to admit to. This was simply because I was not guilty of the things he said I was "lying" on. This was a pre-employment polygraph for a LEO position. In my question packet he went through it and was writing in my packet. He was asnwering questions for me in my own packet. I did not get a dq from the department. However, I was told to re-apply on the next cycle. I know departments share infromation. However, can they share information obtained through an out sourced polygraph test. I think that its BS. This was an unfair test. Will this prevent me from further testing with other PDs or my chances shot because of this dumb polygrapher and his antics. I cant believe this happened to me. I told the absolute truth. Then I told him some things my friends did and he stated that I most likely particiapted in those activities as well. I think this was very wrong, and the whole testing process was worthless. I dont know what he put in my packet to this day. I did recieve that i passed the polygraph, but they do not disclose my packet. but because of what i told them they will not consider me for the time being. Will this have adverse effects on me later in the future.

I did not say anything that would dq me. He literally wrote down what he thought i meant. He twisted my words. In an another way he fabricated my admissions. I did not belive the hype untill that day. I dont get how somene like that has power over someones entire carreer. i hope this does not hinder my chance with a department in the future. I hope i can explain how i was treated. it was bogus.

Absent torture, I don't think that's possible. You were simply manipulated and interrogated.

Well I filled out the packet and then he went through it and marked and filled things out without my consent. He did not let me know what he wrote in my packet.
