Linki Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 The time till a Lieutenants shows up to interview new applicants is beyond rediclious. I have heard many stories about people waiting 3, 4 or maybe even more hours to get an interview. And that for several days. In my opinion this is very unprofessional. I know a lot of lieutenants will say: ''Yeah but I am busy, can't do it right now, maybe later''. This argument is one of the most commen and most rediclious I have ever heard/seen. Where are the priorities when I see four/five Lieutenants playing as cop and two playing as rebel, while there are 5 applicants waiting for more then 5 hours. I would like to know why this happens. Why are people being 'restrained' for hours and hours to wait for just a simple interview? I would like a respectful and well substantiated answer from a higher up what causes this problem. Lieutenants, feel responsible for this. It is your job to keep the standards of the APD high. Not to deminish it. Especially when you have been voted to be a higher up and represent the APD.

Reformed epTic Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) you can't handle waiting 4 hours for an easy ass interview, you're not gonna be able to listen to a suspect RP for 30-45 minutes. you are not entitled to the APD, it is a privilege. Sit there and wait like everyone else. Edited March 22, 2016 by epTic The Monopoly Man, Eli, Bersabee and 8 others like this Link to comment
ProjectGemini Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 It's almost like people have priorities, and can't always magically meet your demands. Reformed epTic, David Erling and goyney like this Link to comment

KevinOB Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Just try to do something while you wait so the time passes by fast. I agree the wait time shouldn't be so long, but don't complain on the forums. The lt's will just ignore you now. Link to comment

Verum Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 I hear that if you get on the TS at the right time of day, your chances of being interviewed go up. Don't get on at like 8 oclock and sit there, because they got off already. Link to comment

What I mean by this post, is that volunteers that want to apply to become a cop are forced to wait a really long time. Unless a lieutetant can give me a good reason why it takes so long, i will never change opinion on this subject. Link to comment

Verum Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 I don't know if they still allow you to setup a scheduled one or not anymore. Maybe you should try that. My buddy said that he got one scheduled but that was a long time ago. Link to comment

Flax Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 You do have to admit tho. Waiting for Lt's does take a pretty damn long time. Usually they are just playing in-game so they aren't "Too busy". All they have to do is take 10-15 mins out of their day and interview one person. Its not that hard boys.

Warbalin Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 If you hop on TS for your interview and don't see any Lieutenants in the Senior Police Chambers it's probably going to be a while before you get your interview. The whitelist applicants channel description pretty much tells you that. If the only Lieutenant you see on the teamspeak in is the AFK channel then don't complain that you've been waiting hours on end. If you are dead set on messaging a Lieutenant for your interview (even though you shouldn't) be respectful. You have no idea how many times someone messages me demanding that I do their interview...
