Be sure you get a TB test prior to starting and periodically after. As you come into contact with TB in jails. You also come in contact with individuals who have Hepatitis.
You have to have no criminal history. They run an FBI check. It helps to have experience handling high volumes of money. And be computer literate. But mostly it is about them liking you. Or knowing someone who is one.
I got my job from the owner asking me to work there. It’s not all cool like it appears on TV. You have to put up with a lot of BS. You are in daily contact with criminals of the worst kind. You will be called by pedophiles and murderers to bond out and you don’t get to pick who you bond out. That is up to the money and the owner.
You have to learn to be tough and tell when you are being lied to. It changes your outlook on people. You will never again look at people the same. If I were you, I would find another career.
And if you are female you have to learn to take a certain amount of sexual harassment from the cops. You have to learn to grin and smile when they say inappropriate things and they will. It is the nature of the beast.
IN some cities when you interview your client prior to posting the bond, you are one on one and the officer’s are nearby but not in the room. If you get attacked or killed, they aren’t liable. Just something you accept when you take the job.
And it happens.
