The Nevada
Department of
Public Safety
offers a wide
variety of duty
assignments and
locations. The
Department has
five sworn
divisions that
are recruiting
for DPS Officer
I and DPS
Officer II. They
are Highway
Patrol, Parole
and Probation,
Investigations,
Fire Marshal and
Capitol Police.
However, not all
Divisions
currently have
openings, or may
only have
openings in a
specific
location. The
available
position
locations and
openings at the
time of your
application
submission may
change while you
are proceeding
through the
hiring process.
Applicants will
be asked
throughout the
hiring process
which Division
they would
prefer to work
for; however,
you should not
limit your
options unless
you are prepared
to lose an
opportunity with
another one of
our Divisions.
If you are
successful
through the
background
investigation
phase, your
listed preferred
Division Liaison
will contact you
to talk about
duty station
availability at
that time. If
that Division
does not have an
opening in a
location you are
willing to start
at, they may
recommend you to
another liaison
for a Division
that does have
an opening in
the location you
desire.
Job offers are
made with the
expectation that
a candidate will
remain with the
hiring Division
for a minimum of
two years.
Consideration
for a transfer
to another
Division, prior
to two years,
will generally
not be
entertained
unless exigent
circumstances
exist. Transfers
are considered
on a case by
case basis and
are not
guaranteed.
Public service
and the good of
the Department
are primary
considerations.
Thank you for
your interest in
the Nevada
Department of
Public Safety,
and good luck
throughout this
hiring process.
