There is a full civil service test in the fall, nut unfortunately, registration is closed.  Next test will be annouced most likely in the fall of 2015, for a test early in 2016.  Keep an eye on the NJ civil service website.

Best of luck, I've got 11 1/12 years in, and love it.

Search Bureau of Prisons

 

find Correctional Officer

 

Build your resume

 

Apply for FCI Fort Dix (central jersey) or FCI Fairton (South Jersey)

 

Starting salary at Fort Dix (NY locality Pay) for CO is like 43,595.  1 year probation, 3 weeks in GA for training. easy money.  State makes more money than us and promotes a little faster.  So that may be a better route if you wanna stay in Jersey.  If you dont mind relocating the Feds have over 100 prisons across the country for you to transfer too and are uilding more.  Good Luck

The academy is live-in in Sea Girt for 3 months or so at a salary of $34,000.

Base pay for state corrections is $40,039. It is now 30 years to retire. Max, which takes 11.5 years to get to, is $80,395.

 

You'd have to wait until the next civil service test if you have not taken the one this year. Usually 2 years between tests.

 

Good luck.

I guess you didn't follow the "hydrate" command.

 

I dunno if they did it with all the classes, or just mine, but our "hydrate" commands were few and far between.... we were told we should have hydrated the night before.

My hydrate commands were "If your not pissing clear I will find out, I will own you, and you will die on my PT floor"
