Forum:Kalyani Parekh - Deputy Head Auror

Auror Admission Test

(Prerequisite Subjects at Hogwarts - DADA, Potions, Charms, Transfiguration, Herbology)

Name: Age: House/School:
 * Kalyani Parekh
 * 27
 * Gryffindor/Hogwarts

Part One

1. Give a reason why you wish to be an Auror: 2. State two of your greatest relevant magical abilities: 3. What characteristics make you a better candidate than others? 4. What are your NEWT qualifications? '''5. If accepted, which subdivision are you most interested in and why? (Patrol Division, Intelligence Division, Hit Division)'''
 * "Becoming an auror came from my mother. My biggest inspiration in life always was, and always will be, her. From a young age, I was forced to grow up motherless because of my father. I wanted to avenge her death, and I knew as an auror I'd be able to do so. Beyond that, I truthfully just wanted to protect the citizens of the country that so kindly opened its arms and gave me a home during the darkest period of my life."
 * "Among my greatest relevant magical abilities is my arsenal of offensive spells - I can cause the most amount of damage without afflicting any innocent bystanders. Likewise, while I'm not a fan of boasting about my capabilities, I'd like to consider myself an adept potioneer. I've solved murders - and other crimes - by means of special concoctions with a wide range of abilities, such as unveiling blood, doing an instant tox screen, and other mundane things that would otherwise take a long time to process."
 * "This is giving me deja vu, I must confess," Kalyani, despite the air of professionalism, finds herself smirking. Many things had changed in the time she was out, but the interviews always remained the same. Perhaps she should look into creating a stricter profile for aspiring aurors. "I think my experience should give me an understandable edge. I've been a member of this force for many years, and I like to think my achievements speak for themselves. There has been an understandable instability in the past several years, with Head Aurors coming and going, but I believe my commitment should speak for itself. Furthermore, I've gained a lot of brilliant insight on how other auror offices work, such as India's and the United States', and I think, should I be selected to fill the position of Deputy Head Auror, bringing in some of those elements would be an excellent way of revitalizing the British Office and ensuring we remain firm in the face of all this political instability."
 * "I got Exceeds Expectations on all my NEWT courses sans Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions and Transfiguration, in which I received O's."
 * "I'm currently aspiring for a promotion to Deputy Head Auror. I've been an auror in the British Office ever since I was seventeen, with my then-guardian's authorization, and have worked for Law Enforcement for even longer, albeit at a smaller scale. While I never entertained the idea of going up the ranks before, after spending so much time working here, I realized this is truthfully the best thing for myself and my career. Not only that, but I really want this - I enjoy what I do, and while the job will come with added responsibilities, I'm ready to undertake them."

Part Two

'''1. If you saw someone, under suspicion only of being a dark wizard, what would you do? Why would you do so?''' '''2. If you were on a mission for the Ministry to rescue a group of wizards taken captive, and could either save yourself or the captives, who would you save?  3. If you are dying in battle, what would you ensure before your demise?'''
 * "I would assess the situation, taking into consideration innocent civilians in the vicinity and whether or not approaching the wizard in question is even practical. Assuming there is concrete evidence against the suspect, I'd apprehend them, but would otherwise just gather as much information as possible to send to my superior, who will then determine the course of action I should take in future encounters, should there be any. Whilst I could bring them in with just circumstantial evidence, I would avoid doing so as then, if unable to find solid evidence, the suspect may feel forced to flee before we can determine whether or not they're guilty."
 * "I'd save the captives if my hand were forced, but would sooner attempt to save both myself and the captive wizards."
 * "There is little I'd ensure, aside from protecting as many civilians as I can until I die. My coworkers are very adept at their work, and I'm sure loose ends would be tied up fairly quickly."

Part Three

Which of the following spells have you MASTERED (put them in bold):

- Full bodied Patronus

- Variety of curses and counter curses

- Ability to brew complex potions such as the Draught of Living Death

- Cast a Protean charm

- Cast a Fidelius charm

- Cast a Bedazzling hex

- Knowledge of venomous plants

- Know how to clean ghost ectoplasm.

- Know the incantation to make objects disappear.

If applicable, list any relevant experience here (Must include: Time in position, Position Title, Ministry or organization the position was with.)
 * "I was assistant to the Deputy Head Auror and later the Head Auror from ages 15 to 17, at which point I trained for several months before being assigned to the Intelligence Office, where I worked for half a year before transferring to the then-Dark Wizards Catcher division. I went undercover several times, but not for longer than a year at a time."

If applicable, list any disciplinary actions from your previous positions (Must include: Disciplinary Action taken, infraction, brief description of any circumstances or other relevant commentary)
 * "I haven't had any disciplinary actions."

If applicable, list any criminal record not sealed here (Must include: crime, sentence, brief description of any circumstances or other relevant commentary) Note: a record does not automatically exclude you.
 * "I have no criminal record."

What are your OOC plans for Deputy/Head Auror?
 * Note: Most things listed were taken directly from Serena's forum, as I was unable to do anything with her during my short time RPing her. All things would be pending Brocky's consent.
 * Gringotts Robbery
 * Domestic Terror Attack
 * Normalize death investigations
 * Create a new Crime Organization that an established ring of users run who are willing to cooperate and allow us to use their members to have constant activity in the department, preferably with a 'notoriety system' so aurors can begin intervening rather than remaining stagnant.
 * Implement a JROTC system for NEWT level Hogwarts students.
 * Establish mandatory auror training exercises.
 * Recover an ancient relic that has unleashed unknown effects on the population (people have become irrationally angry and violent or otherwise).
 * Establish a mission forum where, depending an auror's expertise level, they'll go up the ranks IC and gain a reputation OOC/IC.
 * An attack against the Ministry where they take over for a couple hours until the aurors retaliate (a la White House Down, Olympus Has Fallen, etc.)

Thank you for taking the test. Please await your owl, and if you are successful, Kieran Hung will interview you.
