Animal control interview
Good morning!
I would love to get some advice from other officers here. I interviewed for an animal control officer trainee job. It was by far the worst interview I have ever had. I'm in my early 40's. Had a lot interviews in my life. It was a 4 panel interview. It's a sworn position. The guy was a retired police officer ( Not an animal control officer) He kept yelling and seemed very annoyed by me being interviewed. I answered all the questions to best of my knowledge and research. I have worked in the vet field, kennel, pet sitting ect. He kept saying we have hired a lot of people and they come in and can't handle aggressive dogs. He kept repeating Terminated over and over. Almost like they have a high turnout rate is the impression I was getting. They are hiring the wrong ones. This was for a trainee job to become a Animal control officer. It wasn't best experience for me and I questioned wheather I wanted to continue on with my degree and find an animal control job. I don't think I got the job and honestly I don't care if I did. Everyone else was nice, but he was down right rude and I don't think I could work with him. On the way out he was at the door. I shook his hand again and he said " good luck". I'm assuming I wasn't picked after he said good luck, but I really didn't care. I won't step foot back in that shelter.
My question is:
Have you experienced this before?
How do you get better at writing your reports?
What is some advice you can give me to improve myself?
