Hi all, I was just wondering if it was possible to put in a lateral transfer from a state Department of Corrections to a county/local department of corrections? Is it possible or do you have to go through the entire process with a county department?

I will be applying to several departments in the near future. The department that is in the city that I have always wanted to live in appears to have a somewhat hostile attitude towards their police dept. Almost any youtube video on the dept. has some kind of hippie filming the cops in the hope...
