I think I'm not going to worry about it as much anymore. If I hear something then great, but I am not one of the younger people on here. Time isn't really on my side.

Originally posted by Ashlynn1220VT View PostI would not freak out until you hear anything from them. This is all part of the tactic. I was pretty much told I failed and that my results would be sent to quality control to be reviewed and that I might be contacted to retest. It's all bull****. They try to get to your head. If you told the truth then you should be fine. I never heard anything from them after but moved right on to my background and got hired!
But we'll see what happens, I should get a notice in 2-4 weeks.
Thanks for the words though Ashlynn

same boat.... I took Medical and then PFT-1 April 21 (med) and April 22 (PFT-1) Then I took VBT/SI on May14 (passed notice on May30) A week later a call to retest my hearing for documentation purposes? I called back and asked if there was an issue and they told me it just needs to be documented. I told them I'm 60% Comp Vet with a documented hearing losss, and asked if that was good enough? They called back and confirmed the Med Officer approved it and my appointment was cancelled. Many phone contacts over this ... about 3 weeks ago I contacted HR about still not receiving anything but a BG email and was told they are waiting on clearance of Medical review? I called Medical and was told "We haven't gotten to your date yet" and "we couldn't have contacted you, this is interesting" They told me to stand by as they were getting close to the April dates and something should be coming soon in email. I just received the "congrats for passing the PFT-1) email yesterday? so I guess patience is the key here??
Good Luck

Its been over 4 months and still awaiting my medical to pass on CASS. I contacted MHC and they said they are backlogged on the medical and I should be seeing something shortly. Anyone else having this issue? I have read that others have received a letter about their medical status for possible correction. Thank you!

Hello all,
I applied to this position recently not knowing much about it. I have no related experience, but I am perusing my masters in homeland security & terrorism. I was a bit more optimistic about the hiring process before reading these forums. I was wondering how long from start to finish does this process usually take? How important is experience? Also, I applied to the north east region and noticed everyone else in this region only had the option to pick small isolated towns. How are the chances of landing a Boston metro area?
Thanks, any help is appreciated.

Back when I did medical for BP I had to pay out if pocket for an Optometrist to administer the Farnsworth 15 test, then fax those results over.
Just wondering if I should just go get that done before my medical exam.

Kris,
I had my VBT/SI at the Ybor facility. That would be awesome news for me if it's held there so that I don't have to drive 2 hours to Orlando. Oh man, please be in Tampa! Good luck with your poly!

Not sure how long ago your last Farnsworth test was, but if you show up to the medical with that, it will save a lot of time in limbo waiting for your medical to clear after you have the test done.
