Hey guys, I submitted my 2nd B.I. forms 4 months ago and I still have not been contacted by an investigator to schedule a meeting. Is anyone else going through this? What do you guys think? Thanks

Seems like a lot of people are getting their drug tests now, maybe they are pushing for more EOD's, or maybe they are just trying to blow the rest of their budget before the next FY? This process is so unpredictable...

hey anyone that was looking to change their location, i just received an email with confirmation of my location change. Sent the request nearly 2 months ago. Better later than never right?

[Waterpistola]

with that said, any TO's going out for Florida lately?

Lol this thread is funny. Anyways, I am registered to take the CBPO exam in October 6 in New York City. Does anyone have a headup for me in regards to the exam? Is it tough?

i jus took the exam in NYC on aug 8th, and i would have to say it was pretty tough, i got an 86 but i definitely did better than i thought i did. I thought i was going to get in the mid 70s or lower. I would have to say it was by far the hardest civil service exam i have taken, but thats just me

I agree I thought the test was very tough too! I was shocked when I scored a 90. I had to look to make sure I didn't get somebody else's test results! lol I applied for the SE region and I am guessing it will be a long time before I hear anything. My NOR came in on Aug 30th. Anybody hearing anything about any TO's going out for SE region lately?

I picked the SE region as well but i am hearing that the SE region is very hard to get into, even with the score of 90( and i got an 86), due to the fact there are very few vacanies and that if you really want the job that you should change to the SW region.

I am thinking bout changing to bout changing locations, but i really dont know if i can stay in those locations especially since most of the locations are directly on the border and not at airports. I am from NY and it was already a stretch for me to be willing to me down south, but southwest, I just dont know.

Anyone on here currently work in the southwest region or no someone that does, that can can give me an incite on how life is down there, i can just imagine, being in the dessert in the middle of nowhere lol

Well, I can get into CASS now. It says that my structured interview has been scheduled, but I haven't been informed of a date??? Also, any July '11 testers receive their fingerprint cards yet?

[cbpo kid]

I tested in July and just got an email that says that there was a delay in sending the finger print cards. The cards have been sent out yesterday 09/07/11, expect them in 5 days is what the email says. I just got into CASS aswell no structured interview yet :/

[QnsNY]

I was so excited to see that all areas in the Cass System are completed and green... Things seem to be moving before the fiscal year ends or it could be the start of the next fiscal year for me...
