The application asks basic eligibility questions upfront. You'll confirm whether you're over 21 (the minimum age for Patrol Deputy) and whether you hold a valid driver's license. Have your license handy when you fill out the paperwork.

You'll also need to disclose any arrests or convictions. Take your time with these questions. If you have history to report, gather any supporting paperwork beforehand (case numbers, court dispositions) so your answers are consistent and complete.

If you use any social networking sites, the application requires a signed "Consent to Access Personal Internet Web Page" form. Expect this extra page so you're not caught off guard when submitting your packet.

The application asks whether you can perform the job's essential functions and notes that the Iberia Parish Sheriff's Office complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

If you need a reasonable accommodation, request it through the process described in the application materials.

You'll sign a broad release as part of the hiring process. This authorizes investigators and authorized employees to access information about your employment history, education, law enforcement contacts, and other background details to determine your eligibility and suitability for the job.

The application includes an "at will" employment statement. This means employment with the Iberia Parish Sheriff's Office can be ended by either party at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice.
