Topic: The Club House / Military Veterans to CO

I’ll be getting out of the army in a couple months and I been interested in corrections. I have 2 deployments, I’m infantry but I’ve had to guard POWs a couple times, not that it matters I guess.
How competitve is the job selection? Do you think being a Veteran would better my chances? I’m also planning on getting a cert in corrections at a local college. Also would it look bad if I was applying to about 3 county jails, and 2 prisons at the same time?
Do you guys have a lot of prior military working with you?
Last question…
What is the entrance exam/civil service test like? Is it basic knowledge, like reading, grammer, math… or is it “what would you do” type questions?
