I'm currently on the SWAT team for my department. Our department has 130 sworn and the team currently has 17 members. Within the last couple of years we have lost a few operators due to promotions...thanks guys! Every time we have testing for the team we seem to only draw 2-3 applicants. Many times it's the same 2-3 applicants we had before. Our SUPERVISORS (non SWAT members) say we need to lower our standards. We say "Go to" (you know where). We, as a team, are completely against lowering our standards. The question, How can we get more individuals interested in applying for the team when positions open up?
