What the Deputy Chief of Detectives- State Investigator family covers
In New Jersey's classification plan, Deputy Chief of Detectives- State Investigator stands alone. The family holds one title code rather than a graded series.
Public safety classifications are built around rank rather than around grade, so advancement means competing for a different title instead of climbing steps in the current one. Entry requirements are unusually hard-edged: age limits, residency rules, medical and psychological screening, and an academy that must be completed after appointment rather than before it. Pay comes from separate schedules negotiated by separate unions, and those schedules often carry a contract-negotiated jump near the top of the ladder that the civilian tables do not have.
