Secret Service SA hiring process

[LadyKiller]

Well for the ones referred we must have had the correct key words and phrases in our resumes. I also bet you guys did not choose a,b, or c on the assessment questions? Did you choose d and e? If none of my assumptions are correct they must choose our names out of a hat. However, I have only been denied to test by HSI in 2011, but I was lacking my degree at that time. I already had the vet and FLEO.

<----Non vet, former federal leo, 10+ years leo exp, 3 B.S. degrees, 1 masters, currently finishing second masters. Received testing date.

No degree w/extensive local/federal leo experience - referred for testing (Career Connector). Guess there is no rhyme or reason...

Question, when applying I believe you had to apply through the announcement that included your current residence. How do you advise the secret service that you don't actually want to work in that particular area, but a different region?

If you are selected by the USSS they will offer you whatever they have open at the time. According to an ASAC I talked to the typical first assignment is a big office in Chicago, New York, Miami, L.A., D.C., or Detroit. So they do not care what was on the announcement or what your preference is, they offer locations they need to fill.

I'm a vet no points, BA and career connector says you will be contacted via email for both 7/9.

First time posting on this thread... Status got changed this morning to Referred on USAJOBS for 7, but nothing on career connector. Hoping I get that invite for testing.

Masters in Accounting + CPA + CFE + Work Experience.

Fingers crossed***

Does anyone know if LEAP is paid during training at the academy? If its been asked before, I apologize.

The SA who did my background investigation is looking into that for me as it came up during my home interview. He was fairly certain that I would receive LEAP but the admin officer he asked said the opposite. He is continuing to track it down for me. I will be sure to provide an update when I hear back!

[TXICE]

Yes, you will receive LEAP while at FLETC.

According to my "online" research, the only agencies that don't pay LEAP during training is AFOSI and ICE-HSI. (I *think* FBI pays as well, ever since some agents sued for OT backpay).

Has anyone who's career connector says or said "you will be contacted via email" been referred? Still nothing trying to figure this game out
