I know you all probably have a million threads or posts about this topic so I apologize, but I figure I might as well ask maybe someone here will have more information for me.
I currently work at NASA in Greenbelt Maryland as a Gov. Contractor. I currently work on all the HVAC units on the entire base but sent in for my third class engineers license to be a building engineer.
What triggered my interest in the USSS was when Queen Elizabeth came to our center to visit, my company worked along side the USSS to setup the entrance, road blocking with barriers, check offices with the K9 units, etc. I have always wanted to be some sort of law enforcement but never thought about it seriously. Well now that I'm 21, I'm taking a great interest.
I am 6'0" and about 180-185 pounds. I work out at the gym everyday except the weekend. I play soccer as well. I can bench 330 pounds, I can run a 5 minute mile. I'm in pretty much incredible shape, its an important part of my life. In being the best shape I've ever been in my life I decided why not give this a shot?
To work at NASA I just had to go through a huge extensive background check as homeland security has changed the policies to work on any Government facility. I pretty much have one of the highest clearances(to my knowledge). I know I only work on HVAC units, but they feed some of the most important clean rooms, and server rooms. We also take care of some units that keep server rooms cool enough for global communications, even some of NSA's satellites. If the unit goes down, the room gets too hot, the servers will shut down, and we lose communications. I'm more or less part of the team of the people that arn't seen or recognized yet play an important part.
I would love to join the USSS. I feel I'm in shape enough, I have no criminal record other than some speeding tickets, I've never done a drug in my life, I have a positive attitude and a good head on my shoulders. I'm also very patriotic, and love our country. Does this sound like something I am qualified to do, although with no prior LE experience, you have to learn somewhere, and I've heard you can get in with no experience at all. Is it worth a shot or not?
I know I'm going to do it either way, but I would like some confidence to back me and keep me motivated to apply and get in.
Let me know what you think.
Everything is greatly appreciated.
Corey.
