I was dx'd in 2010, one semester from graduating with B.S. in Criminal Justice, Law Enforcement. I did graduate with a 3.49 GPA. I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to find a job. I've kept my dx quiet since I'm not applying for positions involving physical requirements. As I said, I've had no luck. I've reached out to a few friends in law enforcement for suggestions without much feed back. I'm considering mailing my resume to various agencies; and including my reason for not applying for a police officer position. I've read on here and other websites not to mention my M.S. However, doing so has gotten me no where. It seems that there are jobs out there in departments that are never posted on the internet that would be perfect for me (desk type jobs).
I volunteered with a local department in there Crime Analysis Unit, just to get experience and hopefully a job down the road. The person who ran the department, and association, in my opinion discriminated against me because of my M.S., even though I was always on time and never missed a day. It was quite apparent that I was being "run out" of the position, so reported to the higher ups that I was leaving. Damned if I do, and damned if I don't. Any suggestions?
