Ok today i have decided to complete an application for the Police Force, a dream of mine that i have always wanted to do, and I'm stuck at what to write for the answer to this question?
Before i get to the question, a little about me, I am over 30, have 2 children, i have a law degree and i currently work in an office dealing with the Offshore Oil Industry, 9-5 Job.
I grew up in the care system from the age of 13, Mother was a Heroin Addict, Neglect, Abuse, you get the picture. I have nothing to do with any of my biological family and my childhood is why the Police force has always been a dream of mine, to help people when they are in the most need and vulnerable.
due to my upbringing i have had alot of life experiences, some good but alot of bad too, but i do not know how to answer this question below,,,
Please describe a specific occasion when you have intervened to take control of a situation.
Why was it necessary to intervene in the situation? *
What did you do to take control of the situation? *
What did you consider when intervening in the situation? *
What was particularly good or effective about how you intervened to take control of the situation? *
What difficulties did you experience and how did you overcome them?
My mind has gone blank, I mean how deep to they want you to go with this? stopping my children fighting and being a referee to them daily or the fact that i once dropped out of a window as a child when my mother was getting beat up, ran across a field bare foot in the dark to call for help, i mean i have no idea :(
anyone else have any ideas on what things i could talk about here?
many thanks for your help
