Recruiter Officer Steve Haas

Updated Paperwork Requirement for Mid West Police Testing & Non-Sworn Job Openings

Mid-West Police Officer Recruiting Trip 
UPDATED PAPERWORK REQUIREMENT-Bring a completed Background Questionnaire (available on our website under the forms link) to the test site.

The APD Recruiting Unit will be traveling in May to the following states to process police officer applicants; Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, South Dakota and Wisconsin. Details on dates and locations are listed below. Those interested in testing in one of these locations need to submit a request to test form with the city name you plan on testing in noted on the top of the request to test form.

Normally out of state applicants have to make two separate one week trips to Anchorage to complete the hiring process. By testing at one of the locations below, the applicant will reduce the number of trips they have to make to Anchorage down to one. This testing process is to hire for an academy anticipated to start at the end of January 2009.

If you have any questions contact Officer Steve Haas by email at shaas@ci.anchorage.ak.us or by phone 907-786-2463 or Sgt. Couturier by email at mcouturier@ci.anchorage.ak.us or by phone at 907-786-2444.

The testing schedule will be the same each day. You only need to attend one day of testing, not both. Those that submit their request to test form in advance will only need to bring their driver's license and completed Background Questionnaire with them to the testing site. Although advance registration is preferred, walk-ins will be accepted if they meet the requirements.

Spouses and/or significant others are encouraged to attend the morning briefings.
