Thanks guys for all the replys. As for me, I interviewed last month at MCI and it went great. The staff was very nice and informational. They offered me the job a couple weeks ago and I have a start date of May 4th. Really looking forward to this new career.

BTW, I got an email for an interview at MCI. Pretty excited, its been less than 3 months since I applied. Ive heard its a panel interview. I’ve never been through one of this type. Any suggestions, or ideas of the questions they will ask?

Browns2k, you have been a great help and I thank you for that. After some consideration I applied at MANCI also. I travel an hour to work now so they drive wouldn’t be a problem. I am just ready to get into this career. And as you said after my probationary period is up I can put in for a transfer if a position comes available. Ill keep you posted on my progress with getting hired. Hell, I may even see you in a couple months up at MANCI.

That is really good to know. Now that I have more information I think I may apply to work at another institution. I would rather get in early to start my time instead of playing the waiting game to get in closer to home. I am currently employed making really decent money but I am looking to get my career started in corrections and get out of manufacturing. Are their opportunities for overtime at the institution in Mansfield? I would guess that with their being mandatory overtime that they lowest guy on the totem pole would be made to stay and work another shift. Do you know anything about the conditions at MANCI since the majority of the inmates are closed status?

Thanks for the information, I wasn’t aware that you could transfer after the probationary period.

Browns2k, thanks. I live in Delaware so I put down that I wanted to work either in Marion Correctional or at the Medical Hospital in Columbus. They were the 2 closest to me.
