The reality is more like they are hiring 10 or less for the next year or so.

I believe VPD is hiring 60 some PCs this year.
The most important point here that has been brought up is don't lie. If they find out you lie on your polygraph, you are not going to be a PO anywhere across canada.
Other than that, just be a good law abiding citizen (dont dl anything illegally, traffic tickets etc) + a well rounded individual.
