  With over 140,000 police officers working in the UK, supported by a large civilian staff, the police service is a major employer, constantly recruiting school and university leavers and job changers. Illustrated by real-life case studies (many demonstrating the diverse range of people now working in the force - whether gay or lesbian or people from a variety of ethnic backgrounds), this book shows the range of jobs on offer. Complete with useful addresses and websites, and information on getting past the tough selection procedure (and the notorious selection exam), the book also shows readers the career paths and opportunities for training and development that exist in the service.
