Originally posted by USCG LEME View PostThe first time I thought I was gonna fail, cause the guy took all day and kept talking to me like I was a dirt bag. So when all was said and done he said inconclusive and rescheduled me (after an awesome 8 hour day). The next Poly was much different, the guy was nicer to me and in general the feeling was much different. He asked me a few of the same questions as before, and when he saw that I was still answering all the questions the exact same as the previous interview, he said that we were done and he was recommending that I pass. This interview only took about 3 or 4 hours and was much better of an experience. Im sure when the guy sees that you are staying consistent with your answers you will be all good. Good Luck!

I doubt it because re-gaurdless of location the test dates are the same, but im not 100% sure. I also know from previous experiance that you'll get an email rather your eligible or ineligible to test.

First off I would like to say that I am very impressed on how fast this process is going. I have my medical and physical test next week at the same location and day at a facility about 20 minutes where I live and have my structured interview the beginning of September about 30 minutes where I live. Anyone who has gone through the entire process have any advice?

With regards to adjudication, I had to wait longer than most because I had a traffic ticket that I was waiting to clear through the courts. Moral of the story, any open cases will put a hold on the process for you and you wont be hire-able until after the case is closed. But, I responded immediately to all of the adjudicator's requests; I mean I replied to the emails within a matter of minutes (They come on my phone, so I replied with the needed information). My thought is, they may only have your info on their desk for a matter of moments, till someone else's gets tossed on the pile. You don't want them to forget about you.
Finally when you are doing the interview you are given an opportunity to shine. Stay calm and before you go to the interview, stand infront of a mirror and talk to yourself, rollplay. Sure it seems crazy but it will help you incredibly. First...Roll play that you are an upset traveler, bad guy, whatever...then respond to yourself. Example would be like, Traveler "I hate this country", CBPO "I'm sorry you feel that way." (NOTE: This is completely a made up example, this is not in anyway a scenario or information being wrongfully revealed to you by me). After you have practiced talking to random people, then practice your interview with real people. Try and imagine, if I was gonna hire this guy to be my partner, what would I wanna know, how would I want them to respond, etc. Then practice thinking of questions they might ask, and how you will respond. This should set you up for success. Practice Practice Practice.
Finally, when you are at the point where I finally am...try your best to be patient, cause honestly I am going CRAZY waiting for "The Call" to come. Jade knows what I'm talkin bout.Geo: West Coast

But i let her know that i told absolutely evrything that could possibly trigger and even after that , it continued to rise alittle more than the others. I continued to let her know that i literally had nothing else, she seemed to believe me but looked like she couldnt fight the rise. So im just hoping it goes different this time (God willing)!!

So I been looking at info in this thread for a few weeks now but decided to join in now. So I'm part of the 14-1 group from miami, fl and I'm happy to say I just PASSED my medical/Pft1 today. I'm pretty excited on how fast things have been moving along. Good luck to everyone with the Pft1 coming up. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Oh one more thing. Even though there was a posting saying the Pft1 step test was replaced by the 1.5m run, it wasn't. I had to do the step test today.

@ Alexb6237
Welcome to the forum. It's good to have another 14-1 applicant from MIA. I'm scheduled to take my Medical / PFT1 on Thursday at the Airport Medical Clinic. Do they draw blood as part of the medical exam? Were they strict during the fitness portion? Any insight that you can provide would be very helpful.CBPO

[QUOTE=USCG LEME;3510873]It was the crime thing for me too! "I am not a Crook" No display, just some cheesy wheel of badness. Sounds like you experienced all the same things as me. You'll be fine, even if they think you're an extorting murderous robber.
Oh ok, that makes me feel even much better!! I'll leave it in God's hands and do my part!!Geo Central East Coast
