I applied for a couple of P2Ps a few weeks back and I got a text from one of my references, he just wanted to let me know that the NJSP called for the background check and this time around they were asking him questions primarily about whether or not I had ever been in a mental institution.

 

Since I tend to use some of the same references more than once, this is not the first time this reference in particular was called by the NJSP, and this reference is actually a retired LEO.  He thought it was a bit odd, but I guess they may be changing their questions.

 

No big deal, just sharing my experience.

NJSP either don't talk to each other or can't read.

 

You filled out a mental health background form allowing them to investigate your mental health background.

 

Don't they trust their own investigation?
