I recently have been offered an interview with a police department. I was excited for this until I received a speeding ticket a few weeks later . My interview is coming up very soon and my court date for the ticket is almost a month after the interview. I am not sure what to do about this. Do i tell thr interview panel about the ticket or no? Also will they eventually find out about it? This is my first moving violation and I would have put it on my application had it actually happened before I filled it out. any advixe on what i should do?

Don't bring it up at the interview. If you are asked about it, tell them. They will find out about it when they check your driving history. But like you said, you didn't get the ticket until after you filled out your application.

I don't think the speeding ticket will hurt your chances unless you were traveling way over the speed limit. Try to work out an agreement to get the ticket reduced if you can.

They will find out about it. Be honest, but only if they ask you about it!
