Selected applicants will be required to submit to an extensive background check to include; credit check, criminal history, driver's record, history of drug use, a polygraph examination and take a urinalysis test to screen for illegal substances prior to appointment. The background investigation will consist of contacting ALL of your former employers, and at the due time your current employer. Please note that if you answer "NO" on the state application to the question asking "May we contact this employer?" this will not allow DPS to conduct a thorough background investigation and you will not move forward in the process.
Additional Comments: Division assignments are based on the critical need areas. This means you may or may not be assigned to the Division of choice; your assignment will only be based on "existing needs". Therefore, if you are unable to relocate to a critical need area, an offer of employment may be rescinded. Starting salary for un-certified new hires is $38,273 annually. Starting salary for certified SC Class I Law Enforcement Officers will be $38,273 or $42,100 depending on the length of time you have been certified and actively employed in a law enforcement position prior to being hired at SCDPS. Background questionnaires are an official part of the application. Any attempt to misrepresent yourself may be grounds for disqualification. Read each question carefully and select the most appropriate answer.
