Any candidate reporting higher education (beyond high school) must provide verification (transcripts).

Later in the process, candidates will meet with a licensed mental health professional for a clinical interview/assessment and will complete the Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI). The PAI is a widely used and researched test of adult behavior and psychopathology. The test is based on 344 true/false questions and takes approximately one hour to complete.
