Hello! 20M Interested in law enforcement as a career, Im wondering when would be best to apply given my personal situation, or if I need more experience before doing so. Im currently a year out from graduating with my bachelors degree in political science and a certificate in the criminal justice system. Work experience will include 3 years as a military police officer in the national guard and 1 year as a cadet / CSO type position for my college this next year. Im essentially wondering if this resume is strong enough to start applying next year, and if I should wait to graduate before applying, or if I should apply a few months before so I can enter the academy sooner after graduation. Thank you for any advice!
