As law enforcement agencies get stricter on their hiring practices, becoming a recruit is the only way to get a job with some of them.

The designation of "recruit" only signifies that you are not a fully-fledged police officer yet. In many larger agencies, recruits are hired and sent through the police academy in order to receive the basic training needed to become a police officer. Being an official police recruit has its advantages because they are generally paid positions. Furthermore, your pay is increased once all phases of training are completed and you begin your career on patrol.
