First of all it was a small joke, sorry if it wasn't to your liking. Wearing a suit and tie to a portion of the US Marshal hiring process is something that the forum shouldn't have to tell you. The place you go for your information session may very well end up be the district office that you get assigned...

Had checkmate not posted before I did, I would have told you to wear a shirt with your favorite meme on it, and mismatched shoes.

Dude you're applying for a federal job wear a suit.

[Levithane]

No news is good news, wouldn't consider yourself out of the running. Seems pretty normal with any Federal process to think you failed, and then you end up passing.

[Levithane]

I would strongly advise not asking about details regarding the structured interview portion for USMS, or for any Federal Agency. Im assuming USMS has you sign an NDA, and therefore nothing can really be talked about.

A Tentative offer is usually just a letter stating "you're eligible for hire, provided you complete these steps". More often than not it just shows a list of things you need to complete....

Im not too familiar with the mounts. Im currently winning a used Comp m4 in an auction for under $300. It comes equipped with an A.R.M.S throw lever mount and 30 MOA spacer. This is all gibberish to me, as I would have been content with the QRP2 mount.

Read their website carefully, this is copy and pasted verbatim.

"The unlawful use or possession of drugs, at any time, by Inspection Service employees is not tolerated, and may serve as the basis for removal from the Postal Inspection Service."

"Individuals...

Which aim point do you have? Debating on whether to buy a new aim point pro, or just buy a used aim point Comp M4.

[Levithane]

Go with trijicon or truglos for the glock. For the Kimber I would just put fiber optic sights on it.

@nonotnow

Yeah I looked at the study guide seemed pretty straight forward. Wasn't sure if it lasted as long as the study guide indicated. They tell you if you pass at the end or not?

[Levithane]

They make you do the eqip early to make sure you're trustworthy, and worth investing time in.

[Levithane]

Not aware of any policy changes. When I applied and went to the AC before not passing, it was 10 years for hard drugs, and 3 years for Marijuana. Applied, told them I experimented with it in college, and I was still given the opportunity to go to the AC. Not sure why you got denied. How long have you...

[Levithane]

Normally I would go ahead and say apply, but schedule B has been moving quick for a Federal process. The issue you would run into is possibly getting a job offer before the Army has discharged you. You would have to ask HR I have no idea as to whether they hold spots for individuals until they finish...

@nonotnow
How was the interview?

[Levithane]

I asked about corrective eye surgery when I went to the information session. It didn't sound like corrective procedures would disqualify you, provided there are no issues. If everything is A ok you should be fine. Website even says its only disqualifying "dependent on the outcome of the surgery"....

[Levithane]

CCCSD may come off blunt, but he's telling you how it is. Yes a Secret Clearance and Public Trust position are not the same thing, that is correct. Having a Secret clearance doesn't correlate to holding a position of public trust. But you are being trusted by the government to handle specific information,...

[Levithane]

If you failed a portion of the hiring, I believe you have to wait a year before reapplying.

[Levithane]

Normally I would agree with this statement. However, the individual in question barely even made news headlines. I think I maybe saw 1 to 2 segments that were touching on the Mohamed Noor shooting case....

[Levithane]

I wouldn't worry about your location choice. They'll notify you within the two week period like the email states. Trust me you'll get the email when you least expect it.

[Levithane]

Because to some degree having a Secret Clearance and Public Trust is the same thing. The public is trusting you with a Secret Clearance (even though its lower level) to conduct military activities in accordance with interests of the nation. Be thankful they had you withdraw, it would not have been fun...
