Preparing For A Psychological Interview With South Australia Police
Early in the application journey, you will complete an IQ test and personality profile. This process may bring up some issues that SAPOL’s psychologists may want to assess further. This assessment will be done during an in-person interview with a psychologist.
Most states and territories have mandatory psychological interviews for applicants, even if they also have IQ tests and personality profiling.
Don’t Panic!
Don’t let a request to attend a psychological interview cause you to hit the panic button! We can help you understand what you’re in for, what the psychologists are looking for and how to answer the questions. Importantly, there’s nothing to remember and no scripts to learn, you definitely do not want to script or rehearse anything, but, we’ll help you identify the right examples of personal experiences you’ve had that we can leverage during the interview.
Being able to demonstrate, with evidence, your emotional intelligence, how you deal with stress, how you manage confrontation, and how and when you’ve shown resilience, are all things we’ll help you with inside our training program.

Free months are based on being a member for the same period as the Monthly option.
As a member you’ll also get access to all the training courses, so regardless of which state you are applying for we’ve got you covered!
Yes. The month by month option is very flexible, but, there’s a trade off.
Yes, we also have 6-month and 12-month memberships.
No. The longer memberships are heavily discounted, so, the trade off is less flexibility. There is no option to pause or suspend memberships.
Good question! It really comes down to flexibility or discount. The month by month payment option has the flexibility to cancel any time, whereas the 6 or 12 month memberships don’t (because they’re heavily discounted).
We’ll do everything in our power to help and support you to succeed. The membership is a self-paced program, if you need personalised private coaching with Russ, or you’d like your work to be individually critiqued on a one-off basis, there are paid options available.
There is also the VIP Mentoring Program option, which is personalised coaching, working one to one with Russ throughout every aspect of your application journey.
