What does an entry level probation officer do?

An entry-level probation officer works with convicted offenders who are on a probation period as part of their sentence. As a probation officer, you ensure that each offender meets the conditions of their probation. You also make sure that they follow the legal procedure as required by the court. You make a record of each case to show to a judge or lawyer if necessary. Your duties include managing each case and ensuring that the person on probation has access to employment, training, and other services. An entry-level probation officer works under the supervision of a senior probation officer.
