Paid Summer Community Service Officer jobs - Nantucket, MA

The Nantucket Police Department is currently accepting applications from suitable persons for
the position of Community Service Officer for the 2012 Summer season. CSO's are not armed
and perform a variety of duties and services in support of basic police operations and functions
which do not require the legal powers of a sworn police officer. This experience can prove to be
invaluable to any individual who desires to enter the field of law, law enforcement or any of the
social sciences. CSO's are generally assigned to bicycle, foot patrol and are scheduled to work
day and night shifts. CSO's are required to purchase their own uniforms to Department
specifications. The Department does provide duty belts and other duty equipment other than
basic uniform apparel. The starting hourly rate for CSO's is $15.00 per hour. Housing for the
summer is available for $95.00 per week.
The hiring process consists of a criminal background check, oral interview and a physical
examination. The interviews are scheduled to occur during the first two weeks of April. For
successful applicants, there will be a training program scheduled to start on June 4, 2012 and
then employment will continue through Labor Day. Under certain circumstances, such as exam
conflicts, your starting date may be modified. If you are requesting a start date change, you must
provide a written explanation of the conflict. Hiring preference may be given to those applicants
who can start on June 4. A copy of our employment application can be obtained from the
Department web site at www.NantucketPolice.com. You can either print or complete the
application on your computer. It is suggested that you use Adobe Acrobat Reader to complete the
application. The deadline for completed applications to be mailed with ORIGINAL signatures is
