The Arlington County Police Department (ACPD), in a bid to expand its ranks with new officers, has announced a partnership with a production company to create a new recruitment video. According to a release on their official website, the project aims to give a glimpse into the life of Arlington's officers and to bolster their recruitment drive. Filming for the video is scheduled for the end of September and will result in road closures affecting Army Navy Drive between S. Nash Street and 28th Street S. from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on Friday, September 27. Local traffic, which needs to pass through, will be given intermittent access during this period.
Residents should anticipate witnessing the ACPD's presence in various locales across the county from September 26 through September 28, as officers engage in the video production. The department is focusing on showcasing to potential recruits the combination of professional challenge and community service that characterize a career with ACPD. These visuals, once released, will form part of the department's innovative strategy to attract a body of applicants reflective of the diversity and vibrancy of the community they're sworn to serve.
ACPD is also promoting the benefits associated with the sworn officer position, highlighting a competitive starting salary of $68,503 and an enticing hiring bonus that can reach up to $25,000. Interested individuals are encouraged to apply and can find more details by visiting ACPD.JOBS.
