Thank you for your application to the Civil Defence Initiative. Having reviewed your application, we have cross referenced your pilot's licence credentials with the Pilot and Vehicle Licensing Agency. It would of course be appreciated if you could retrieve your original documents from Trafalgar.
The next step is to attend our headquarters at Wharferdale, Sprague for a formal interview with one of our inspectors. Following that, a flight assessment will gauge your current capabilities. There are directions at the spaceport, and on arrival at Stanbrook Hall, one of the desk sergeants will be able to provide specific instructions.
In the event that you pass assessment and induction, you will swear your attestation of office and be issued with a warrant card as a special constable. Please hold on to any travel and accommodation receipts and we'll be able to reimburse you for reasonable expenses. Congratulations, and good luck.

Thank you for your application to the Civil Defence Initiative. We've reached out to Cambridge University for a reference on your previous employment, but they have refused to talk to us. A quick neural net search does show your name listed on a doctoral dissertation however, so we are taking that as a "close enough".
I have earmarked your interest in deploying to the forensics branch, which is currently... in the process of being assembled. Please note that we cannot guarantee full-time deployment on forensic duties, and the bulk of your shifts would likely relate to more mundane patrol requirements for frontline policing.
