[Mr. Lawyer]

Evening Ladies & Gents,

Out of curiosity, Who here has already gotten The Call and was given the option of Baltimore or Dulles? If so, PM me please. Thanks.

So any updates for my fellow 13-1 applicants? A new year is almost here, maybe we will finally all get that call.

One can hope. I've done 2 polygraphs already. Let's go

Thanks.. yes I saw the paper. The test was nothing like how I thought it would be, it wasn't hard. My VBT is in two weeks and I keep hearing its like a regular job interview, I'm trying not to overthink it.

Is it true Customs is looking for a lot of females? have you heard that?

The job posting stated that they can hire females w/o regard to gender bias/numbers. That would seem to indicate that they need females. That is true of most Law Enforcement jobs. The last opening I saw from Boarder PATROL was only for female applicants.

Well I met July 2013 but it's still a long time. The most important lesson I've learned throughout this process is to stay occupy and focus other things while waiting. Also, lots of patient.

Yes don't over think it. I'm not too worried about the SI. Just the VBT WHICH A LOT OF PEOPLE FAIL.

The last cbp job opening i saw stated this:

"Female CBP Officers are in high demand for the processing female travelers that are detained, interrogated and/or deported. Therefore, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management has granted CBP an exception to Title 5 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 332, Section 332.407 which authorizes the targeted recruitment of female officers in locations experiencing a critical need. "

Hello,

Anyone working, has work or has been offered San Francisco Airport?

Anyone knows how is to work there?...or if its a good or bad place to work?

[Dragonfly]

best thing to do is practice in stairs for 10 minutes straight...and no matter what don't get distracted talking or looking anywhere else but the wall or an object.

You will be alright
