  • Pre-employment psychological evaluations help assess whether a candidate has the emotional stability, stress-tolerance, and mental readiness required for the high-pressure demands of law enforcement. They screen for personality traits, behavioral risks, or psychological issues that could impair job performance or pose a liability to the agency.

  • At Chanderbhan Psychological Services in Laredo, a comprehensive evaluation typically involves a clinical interview and standardized psychological tests that may take several hours (often 5–6 hours) to complete. 

  • Licensed psychologists with experience in public safety assessments conduct these evaluations in Laredo. For example, Chanderbhan Psychological Services, based in Laredo, offers pre-employment evaluations for police, CBP, and other security personnel.

  • To prepare, you should simply be honest and show up ready to discuss your background, mental health history, and how you handle stress. According to expert guidance, there’s no special way to “study” for these tests—just being yourself is the best approach.
