2022 ATF 1811 GL7-9 Announcement

[Josh_1997]

Does anyone want to be added to a group chat so we can all stay in contact and communicate?

[tlaughlin]

I'd be game for that. My interview is scheduled for June 28th in Nashville.

[mih pihsrow]

Just wanted to give you guys/gals some encouragement and tell you to stay the course. ATF is a grear agency to work for and well worth the time and effort. Good luck to you all.

[DoubleHaul]

Any word if they've resumed processing applicants from the 22-ATF-SA-003 announcement? I haven't heard squat since getting my exam results in early May.

[mih pihsrow]

Im not sure but they have resumed doing interviews that were temporarily paused so their should be some movement.

[green_machine22]

Anyone know if PFT comes before the interview?

[RagingRino]

Yes it does

[green_machine22]

Cool, thanks!

[RagingRino]

I would start running for it now. It’s no joke.

[green_machine22]

I do, I usually knock out 24-30 miles per week and hit the gym about five. I’m just curious about the order of the hiring process since I haven’t heard anything after I passed the exam.

[patroltofed]

Any current ATF agents on here I could ask questions about the job to? Thanks

[kvasir]

patroltofed Former agent. I can attempt to answer any questions you have.

[mih pihsrow]

Sure PM me

[tarquinusmc]

Just got an email saying Albuquerque Tucson and Phoenix PT test will be first week in August date TBD

[green_machine22]

When did you apply, if you don’t mind me asking?

[tarquinusmc]

22-ATF-SA-003 in January.

[green_machine22]

I’m April, 2022, so I’m a little behind you then. Thanks!

[2B18-11]

@green_machine22, there was another public announcement in April? Did you get any word of if there will be any additional announcements this year?

Have my PTT scheduled for August 12th in Columbus. Anyone have any tips for improving sit-ups and push-ups? I am really close to the minimum requirements but I’m not super confident I can do it on test day. This will be my first physical fitness test for an agency.

[DoubleHaul]

I'm no fitness trainer, but one thing that has always worked for me has been to add weight to my pushups. You can use a weight vest or just a backpack with a barbell plate tossed in. Do 200 reps every other day, in as few sets as possible. Make sure to give yourself a rest day in between where you aren't doing any pushing exercises that work chest, shoulders, triceps.

[Stay Salty VB]

If ATF is like most agencies you should have the ability to schedule a second attempt should you fail. Correct me if I’m wrong and I wouldn’t depend on a last chance scenario but if you’re close to the minimums just keep pushing even if you don’t pass the first one just to be safe.

[DoubleHaul]

Got my PTT scheduled for July 25. Processing out of Chicago. Good to see movement in the process.

[dom_v]

Set to deploy soon so i figure it will postpone my 1811 escapades.

Anyone deployed while in the process for a gov position ? Can they keep you in the process? I'm pretty sure they will tell me to kick rocks and re apply.

[Carrillo_17]

Got my PTT scheduled for Aug 11th, processing out of El Paso, hopefully the process starts moving a little bit faster hehe

[Stay Salty VB]

Finally scheduling PTT in august for Virginia applicants.

[Serdv]

Anyone from the New England area been reached out to about a PTT?

[nkrysinski]

PTT email for New York came out this morning.
