Student/Recent Grad Criminal Investigator (DHS/ICE)

[Shell_Back]

CORRECTION: NOT FOR RECENT GRADS, CURRENT STUDENTS ONLY

For those of you who are completing college, this is a great opportunity to become a criminial investigator. This is a paid position at the GS 04/05 level with promotion potential to GS-09.

After completion of the pathways program, you may be eligible for non-competitive conversion to a federal career or career-conditional position as a Criminal Investigator.

After the conversion to full-time criminal investigator, I believe your promotion potential will be a GS-13.

**After rereading the annoucement and getting clarification, this announcement is NOT for recent grads. This is for CURRENT college students ONLY** Sorry for the misunderstanding

Thanks for the heads up Shell_Back. Great opportunity for those who qualify under pathways program.

Thank you for posting this!

Judging by what you said (and the announcement as to what GS5 qualifies as), one can still be eligible for this is they just graduated correct? I only want to clarify because a question on the application asks if you are currently enrolled in a university, but since I just graduated I am technically not. But then it moves on to ask if you have completed four years.

This is ICE Special Agent 1811, correct? I've always been confused by positions marked "trainee", since all positions requiring training I thought


Edit: Sorry, brainfart. So it's a pathway program that leads to ICE 1811?

I didn't read the announcement because I cannot be called a recent grad, but from what I have seen, pathways announcements are for current students and recent grads (within 2 years I think).

After rereading the annoucement and looking up the OPM Pathways fact sheet (http://www.opm.gov/policy-data-overs...am-Fact-Sheets), this may ONLY apply to CURRENT students and NOT recent grads. I too, was looking at the GS-5 qualification stating a 4 years post high school education. However, if you read the OPM website, there is a recent graduate specific announcement, which this annoucement does not state.

I applied for the job anyway but I may have to edit the subject regarding "recent grads"

That is correct

I suppose I will apply anyway...kind of a bummer if it is only current students.

I just graduated in April.

Crap, would have been a good opportunity had I not just graduated.

[Det_sje]

Hey there.

I'm really interested in applying and I'm a High School graduate from a foreign institute, but I'm currently residing in Houston, Texas, and I have been accepted into a recognized educational institution (University of Houston) for this Fall semester.

So what do you guys think I should do? I'm a US citizen but the only issue is that I graduated from High School in Saudi Arabia. Do you guys think I should e-mail them and ask?

Thanks.

I graduated with my M.A. in January, but went ahead and applied anyway. Too bad though, I don't believe I've seen anything with 1811 potential on the recent graduate front.

I'm in. Thank goodness I'm still 1 class away from graduating!! Now hopefully they can pay match current DHS LEOs
