What does it truly mean for a candidate to be psychologically suitable for a role in public safety?

In this episode of Mind Matters, hosts Elizabeth Morris and Gary Fly are joined by FMRT’s Lead Psychologist, Dr. Peter Schulz, to break down one of the most critical and often misunderstood parts of the hiring process.

 This conversation provides a clear, high-level look at how psychological suitability is defined in the context of public safety, how it differs from general mental health or clinical diagnosis, and why it plays such an essential role in selecting candidates for high-stakes positions. 

Whether you’re involved in hiring or leading a team, this conversation offers valuable insight into how strong, defensible processes lead to stronger departments.
