Posted about 1 month ago ANCHORAGE ALASKA HIRING 22 POLICE OFFICERS - No College Degree Required- Anchorage, Alaska is a modern city that still has that small town feel. From great shopping, schools, and unlimited outdoor activities, we have something for everyone. APD is hiring police officers for an academy scheduled for November 24, 2008. Our academy is a non-residential program and you will be paid while attending the academy. The starting hourly wage for new recruits is $27.02 and for lateral officers $28.45. The APD Recruiting Unit will be traveling in September to Minnesota and Michigan. Details on dates and locations are listed below. Those interested in testing in one of these locations need to submit a request to test form with the city name you plan on testing in noted on the top of the request to test form. Normally out of state applicants have to make two separate one week trips to Anchorage to complete the hiring process.

| Posted about 1 month ago This really sucks that I cant make it to those areas. I would LOVE to be a PO in Alaska. Lack of money is a horrible factor with me. Espically since I have none. |

| Posted about 1 month ago I wouldnt want to live in Anchorage. It can get really cold. Fairbanks can get to -80. Although, the US Government goes pay you a bit of money to live in Alaska. You miss 100% of the shots you never take. |

Fairbanks didn't get quite that cold this year, however I think Tok (near the Canadian border) got down to -70, no way I would live there!. Fortunately the coldest we ever see here in Anchorage is a week or so at -20 before it warms back up. Our coldest month is Anchorage and the mean temp is +14. It's not the US Government that gives us money, it's actually the State of Alaska. It's called the Permanent Fund Dividend, every Alaska resident (kids too) gets a check from the interest on oil revenues given to the state. This year it's going to be a little over $2,000 per person, plus the state is also throwing in an "energy rebate" of about $1,200. So if it all comes to pass like they next month my family will get almost $10,000 from the State of Alaska!!! There won't be a big screen TV left on a shelf in this town.
