Movement within the law enforcement community is quite common.  They won't give it a second thought.  Gino's advice is dead on (for once), ;)

Noel,

Sorry for my delay in responding.

In my opinion, application to multiple agencies shows a genuine interest in a law enforcement career. As long as you handle this right when you are questioned about it, it shouldn't be a problem.

Consider explaining that you are absolutely dead-set on working in law enforcement, and that you understand just how competitive the process is. I suppose that it couldn't hurt to tell the person asking that his agency is your first choice, and that the others are all back-ups.

Still, this should not be a tremendous problem.

how do lawenforcement agencies view applicants who apply to many agencies. could that look bad and dq someone. i feel applicants can apply as much as they want because they are just looking for a job. i heard some agencies look at this bad and dq u. if it is true than its stupid.
