BOP isn't hiring externals anytime soon.
If someone was to ask where to apply if you want to try and get on quick I say Yazoo City is your best bet. They have had issues activating the new USP there because Manning and they just sent out an announcement for 15 LT spots with a bonus.

BOP is hiring new folks it's just more intermittent than it's been. It's been covered here several times. Each institution has to be in the 89% Manning before they can pull a list. My complex went almost a year from the last class they hired before they froze the spots to starting 5 vets this week.

At this rate we might as well wait unto the next hiring announcement in March. Hopefully soon the Federal budget will be approved to hire more besides focusing on Manning.
Like I mentioned if I was needing to get in quick (say before a age cut off etc) I'd go for Yazoo City. Otherwise other FCCs could or could bot be a wait. If your trying for an old school stand alone like Texarkana you can forget it.

Waiting is silly being it's an open continuous announcement. You never k ow when they will get permission to pull a list. People retire and promote out on a moment's notice.

I applied when I got the email they sent out. I got referred on 10/17 sometime in November they sent me preliminary paperwork. I then was interviewed and received a conditional offer on 12/5 and I filled my eqip on 12/22. I’m now just awaiting an entry date which will hopefully be soon but hard to say as the government is slow lol. As far as your other other comment when I contacted them I asked for a courtesy interview as I’m closer to FCI La Tuna and Florence but they turned me down and told me it needed to be at Yazoo so I dunno every facility is different.

The best and most powerful job in BOP is a GS 8 step 10 Officer with seniority. They get what shift, job, days off, vacation, O/T and doesn't have to do what they don't want to. LTs have to work where the Capt wants with no say so, CAPT get jumped by admin about every day. Good Capts don't pass the stupid down. Bad ones knee jerk and pass the chewing to LTs.
