How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Tips to get shortlisted

Mention the areas you know well. Companies prefer officers who can find addresses fast without a GPS.
Put your firearm competency and armed response course at the top. Without both, the CV is not read further.
