Just had my In- Depth interview today

[mac1]

So today was my big day, It was just under 2 hours long. For the first half of the interview I had 2 recruiting investigators, then for the second half just one officer. The interview was recorded.
They covered everything in the personal history form front to back, asked about all my family, and references. They even wanted to know what limit I had on my credit card and the amount I last paid and the amount owing on it.
Ok so now questions asked during second half of interview
- what drugs have you ever done, and when
- have you ever driven drunk and when
- Tell me about your home life
- how my family feels about becoming an officer
- what a typical day for an officer was
- who chief of police was
- what communities are in peel
- my experience with racial minorities
- how I feel about turbins
- How I felt about homosexual couples
- About a disagreement with a co-worker or boss
- What do I think will be a difficult part of this job
- when have I taken charge in a leadership role
- Have I ever been disciplined or reprimanded at work.
- why I thought I would be a good officer
- any hobbies or interests
- my drinking patterns
- what I thought of illegal narcotics

I'm sorry this all I am able to remember right now..it was question after question straight, no small talk, no water to sip on, hard core.....

I'm sure everyone will appreciate your post but you should be careful of what you disclose! I believe most Police Services ask you to sign a confidentiality agreement, so I would edit this post so as not to risk your chances in the process.
Good Luck

Thanks for your reply, but I was not asked to sign anything, so I feel very confident, and I really hope that this will help others. In the end only the right people will be hired. And I'm pleased to be able to pass on any helpful information. Oh and I just was notified that you would only sign a agreement upon being hired.

I had to sign a confidentiality agreement.
Peel doesn't do this?
