The Midland Police Department will hold a physical and written examination to fill vacancies in the upcoming academy for police officers at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 25.
All eligible applicants should report to the Midland Police Department front lobby located at 601 N. Loraine with a valid photo I.D.
The requirements for the position are:
Physical Fitness Test
Minimum 30 sit-ups
Minimum 25 push-ups

Sixty college credit hours are required, but applicants with less may still qualify depending on past years of military, police, jailer or corrections experience.
