I tried to join VSC last year and went to Police Cantonment Complex for an interview, but was unsuccessful.

I have no criminal record, but I have a bad record in NS, conduct was only satisfactory.

Think it was rejected cos of that.

Then dun be VSC lor... It's not going to be your career anyway (i assume), and besides there are lots of other ways to volunteer to help out in society. Wink

You want to try to apply again?

They now have psychometric testing so it will depend more on that now then just plain interview and medical examination.

ngokyc SG

Think you have to retry the application if you are really keen. Laughing

Pitot SG

Nothing better to do to join VSC. If wanna be a police officer why not sign on as a regular. How much do they pay you per hour??? Think of signing on as a regular better if cant get into regular join cisco la.... Mr. Green

Its volunteer work.... maybe the remuneration we could talk about would be self fulfillment.... Rolling Eyes

joe_alvin SG

What remunerations do you expect??? It is hourly paid and you have to clock at least certain hours per month. However, VSC only have their "so called" authority at night when they are on duty. One of my colleauges once on duty with a few VSC complains that they do not know how to perform their duties and only know how to act "on" only. (THis is only what My friends comment) Luckily, I never team up with any of the VSC guys before. Heng.......... Wink Wink

I believe that you should not put all of them down just because of a few. Not all VSC are like that.

joe_alvin SG

I am wondering have you ever work with them before!! I feel that there is nothing wrong to give a harmless comment. Anyway, is ok... small kid. Mr. Green

viciouskitty74 SG

Not surprising.....I've also known a lot of POs who didnt know their duties and only know how to act only.

Personal experience. Went out on plain clothe duties with some sergeants and inspector. In the end, the lower rank younger VSC has to take over and conduct certain exercises which the POs didnt know how to handle.

viciouskitty74 SG

From what you described, you have not worked with them before. So why are you putting up 'harmless comment' you have totally no understanding of?

Sometimes, its not about how old or young you are. Its about how experienced of knowledgeable you are.

What are you talking about. Please try to understand everything first before you add on some comments. (hope it is not an offence).
