4) Anything specific for females at FLETC?

Here's one...

"Behave"...and if you can't, be very discreet. "FLETC fling", rumor and fact, follow people about for years, sometimes careers. It may not be fair, but females tend to get branded harder by their "imprudence" than males.

Hey mole. I EOD at San Ysidro July 14th and I was just curious what EOD is comprised of.

The investigator called me to confirm a date, then sent a confirmation email with all the info in it.
While observing these other applicants processes and timeline, these things do not run on a timely manner, so you just got to have faith and patience!!!

Thanks for the info, I downloaded a credit report as someone else suggested and it looks like CBP pulled the report on 6/6/14, so a poly phone call should hopefully be coming soon.

Hey kattle, I know I'm probably not in any position to be able to answer, but I have a cousin whose been working as CBPO for over 10 years and he let me know that it's pretty much you going to the port and signing papers and learning little things here and there in a suit for a month. Very easy money he says. Hope that helps any

I've been wondering what the heck we do at EOD also

Still have not received a date for my Poly! Turned in my Eqip 5/20.

Gonna check my credit report and see if they have pulled a credit check yet.

Well mole emailed me saying:
EoD, first day, you'll be doing paperwork. Admin stuff, getting you in the system. Then computer work till fletc.

Fletc wasn't bad. It's how you take it. Curriculum is easy if you reveille a little bit every night. PT is easy if you've been training.

It will be apparent who "that guy," is. Stay away from them.

Hello everyone for those of you who may be doing the PFT 1 sometime in July or after. The step test is being replaced with a 1.5 mile run. I don't know what time you need in order to pass. I'm sure something with more detail on that portion of the exam will come out soon.

Do I have to wear a suit for my vbt tomorrow, because in the email it says business casual. I only have $40 in my account because I support my mother. I'm just wondering if any of you or have known others that have taken the vbt in slacks and a polo shirt.

Thank you.

[melissa85]

Business casual is fine, you don't really need a suit. I did not wear a suit for my VBT.

[cur679]

Did you pass your vbt

[melissa85]

Yes I have to resend a new evaluation forum for my eyes since I did not pass that. I had PRK done and had to wait three months. I believe I have my polygraph exam waiting for me after I send the paper work in.

background

Congratulations to everyone that is getting the calls.
I have to ask. I was hired for federal correctional officer job but got the offer taken away because I was suspended from my county jail job. I was suspended for two days because I broke jail protocol for a safety issue. My boss understood why I did it but I broke protocol. Will this same issue mess up my background check with cbp?
