3. A high school diploma or equivalent.

4. Be between the ages of 18 and 35 by August 31, 2018 (one is over 35 years old on the day after his or her 35th birthday).

Appointees will be required to pass thorough medical, drug and psychological examinations. Appointees will be required to possess a valid New Jersey driver’s license.

The deadline for filing applications is August 31, 2018. Applications will be accepted beginning July 1, 2018. The exam will be scheduled in the Fall 2018.
