aspiring_1811 I just passed everything (PT, written, interview) and was told that all that you mention is triggered by HQ, which is what I initially thought. Now thats what I have to do, so its a waiting game at this point for me. Your recruiter however can follow up w HQ to make sure youre in que,... -
Levithane i heard it has to be done within 60 days. Just passed mine, 70% of the group failed. If youre not taking the mock test at least once a week you would be wrong. I scored the highest of the group (also the oldest) and in conversation after, everyone that failed DID NOT ever put themselves through... -
nonotnow not sure what “negotiations” youre referring to but from what i was told and from my own experience it would be something to the affect of “ok we have vacancies in Office A, B and C, pick one.” Im not sure it goes beyond that. If so that would be awesome, but i highly doubt it. Was... -
aspiring_1811 I believe that would come from big HR (HQ) but your local field office recruiter would be able to follow up with them and get a status update possibly. Again they have hundreds of candidates emailing them so unless you know them personally or have another connection to them you’ll probably... -
Trooper33 each case is different, i got MAC invite same day i applied. Doesnt come from HQ though, comes from the recruiting office you submit your package to, did in my case at least. -
Meant for response -

DeepseaPD insider contacts definitely help if you have one. You can probably imagine the hundreds of emails per day they receive. -
dark321 of course they dont want you to research and find out what BS nonsense it is, lol. Think about it. I wont say anything further. -
govhopeful good advice and i agree. Only thing I’d add, if you cant arrange a diagnostic through a recruiter, do it yourself. I do them myself at least twice a week. I understand its not the same with pushups/situps but you can get a good idea of where youre at. My only worry is that in doing my pushups... -
Bentley32 minimum is 12 points combined total with a minimum of 1 pt in each event, so that all depends on you and where youre at physically and where you want to be. The point system is open source info, google it. -
nonotnow how'd you find that out? Did you feel good about it walking out? -
ens189 other than the downloadable version which they tell you where to find, the only advice is to pay attention to key words, read through it a few times, dont' overthink it, pay attention to detail. Its not difficult. It's just another dummie filter is all. Its not difficult. -
tluster I contacted recruiter Jan/2020 and emailed everything in. Received invite for expedited testing a few minutes later for the following month. -
kb9977 Nice info thanks! hopefully I can make it for September class (Applied Jan 2020), that may be speediest process but I'm hopefull. -
Most agencies allow for a personal or secondary weapon to be carried on or off duty (depending on agency) and there is a list of weapons which are authorized (each agency is diff). To my knowledge most 9mm or 40's (Glock, H&K, Sig, etc.) For long guns, usually not authorized because you'll only... -
aspiring_1811 agreed -
aspiring_1811 from my experience, agencies under the same umbrella will normally honor the clearance that is active under that umbrellaI.e. DHS would honor all clearances under DHS (cbp, BP, HSI, etc.) I have not been with a DOJ agency but i assume that they would also honor those under DOJ as well.... -
USMC86 i can vouch for what Levi states, I applied 1/2020 and the very first thing im doing is PTA 2/2020 followed by written test and interview. -
aspiring_1811 the normal universal standard is to re-certify every 5 years. But the clearance is good with the agency that granted it until you either A) leave the agency and have a gap of employment or B) get a suspension in clearance which is rare. Not sure if that answers your question not.
