Abstract
The objective of this study is to determine the competency profile in the local police post through the declaration of descriptive adjectives of jobcompetencies and the recovery of the mental images of theseprofessionals. 24 local police membersparticipated and contributed the descriptors to the image of the best local police, as well as evaluated the relevance of the selection tests of these professionals. The results showedthat the most frequent descriptions refer to the competences of collaboration, flexibility, excellence, technical knowledge and teamwork,and, on the other hand, that the most relevant selection tests were knowledge, psychologicaland physical aptitude tests.
