Secret Service SA hiring process

[M8541 Reaper]

If there was that specific check box or whatever on those sections you're talking about, I didn't. But any other space where it didn't specify or wasn't clear, I N/A'd the **** out of it.

Directions said to not leave any field blank soooo this guy made sure he went overboard and hit N/A in EVERY box haha. While one would assume you don't need to put N/A after checking the box that governs the following fields, I've learned over the years that it's better to not assume.

I don't want to sound like a d***, but i'm not going to throw his name out there on a public forum, especially not without his permission. I got the info through the general number that has been posted here before, (202) 406-5271 option 3. Just told them I was a SA applicant and trying to find out whats going on with the process and I got a lucky transfer.

Yea I was joking

Bronc, in all honesty, how often are current SA's tested for physical fitness, and what happens if an SA fails? I ask because not a single SA I've had contact with at my local FO would be able to do a pull-up if asked, or run further than the donut box near the water cooler. The two SA's that did my panel interview were both about 5'6" and well over 225 pounds, and they weren't muscular... You could see their bellies hanging over their pants. The SA that did my background locally was of similar proportions, though maybe a tad taller. Funny thing was, they made sure to tell me, over and over, that physical fitness is mandatory and that I need to make sure I'm ready for that... This being told to a guy that never scored below 300 on any USMC PFT.

I know the stated policy is that SA's are tested quarterly, but how can that be with what I've seen?

I don't know... I only worry about myself... I also don't care... Because I know who will never fail a PT test...this guy

We'll see you back here in February asking who you should contact to find out why you didn't get your SAEE email

[Bronc_smith]

Hoping I get one of those.

You don't have to get one of those... Just do what you need to do... Hell if you don't get one of those it makes you look that much better... The most important part of what I said is to just focus on what YOU have to do

Haha! The cycle continues...

Don't you just love the emails telling you that you will be receiving another email at some point?

[tnegaas]

Haha, I wouldn't doubt it based on the previous posts I've read...

I received a phone call saying that I would receive an email. LOL, not sure if that matters in terms of effectiveness.
