QUESTION 23 OF 33

Detective work can be a physically demanding job. Do you believe you are capable of handling this?

Being a detective is a very demanding job, and you must show the interviewer that you can handle the physical and mental components of the role. Talk about your actions to ensure you are in good physical and mental shape, and discuss any challenges you may have. If you have an injury or issue that would compromise your ability to work as a detective, the interviewer will not necessarily pass you over for another candidate, as that could be discriminatory. However, they may be able to find a way to work with your physical abilities until you are healed from your injury.

"I am capable and fit, both physically and mentally. I work out at the gym daily and keep myself emotionally healthy through meditation and reading. I had a knee injury in the past, but after surgery and six months of physio, I feel great."
