The cadet program is the law enforcement equivalent to a paid internship, allowing the individuals to not only experience firsthand the life of an NRP officer but also to participate in other areas of the Department of Natural Resources, such as fisheries, state parks and wildlife.
In the past two years, seven cadets have made the transition to the NRP Police Academy. One of them already has graduated and joined the ranks of field officers.
Candidates for these full-time positions must be between 17 and 19 years old to apply, and between 18 and 20 years old to be hired. They must have either a high school diploma or high school equivalency certificate. Candidates must be citizens of the United States and establish residence in the State of Maryland prior to appointment.
Applicants will have to pass rigorous physical and psychological tests, and undergo an intensive background check. A demonstration of the elements of the Functional Fitness Assessment Test, including the correct position for push-ups and sit-ups can be viewed online.
Online application is strongly preferred and can be accessed directly here, or via search at jobaps.com/md. The salary and benefits schedule is at that site as well. The deadline to apply is April 20.

White people need not apply-all the jobs go to "minorities". What will they do in 10 years when white folks are the minority? Will we then get the same preferential treatment? I'm not holding my breath.
8:55 - Interestingly enough, I am seeing the same phenomenon in the DC area with the Federal jobs open.
I have applied for a number of these jobs - possessing the requisite minimum qualifications. Being a contractor within the organization, I am able to see who gets in for interviews and is eventually hired.
Between favoritism in the initial screening process and Affirmative Action in the eventual hiring process, we're doomed to the mediocrity that we're allowing to be hired.
Maybe changing my name to Tyrone Washington and listing my degree as from Strayer, I could get an interview.....
If I was you I would absolutely give my race as black...Who says you're not?
Who is the girl in the pic? She's a Hottie!!
