I can't imagine that the PT standards are that high for most OIG positions. If you can at minimum bench your own weight and run 1.5 miles in under 12 minutes you'd probably be fine.

That would be equally as reliable as the polygraph, so it makes perfect sense.

I've been told that it's "risk based" but who knows what that actually means, especially considering I've talked to others who were flagged to take the polygraph despite a clean background, clearance, and current LEO status.

I suspect that the emails aren't being sent out simultaneously.

Did you receive an email? I just checked my inbox and still nothing.

Nothing so far. Do they at least let us know if we failed?

That's just insane.

I just tell myself that being with the federal government gives you the opportunity to transfer between different agencies in different locations, and without any issues related to your retirement; provided of course that you remain in a 6(c) covered position. It makes the lower retirement and subpar...

It's been like three years since I went through the process with FAMS, but I seem to remember that the PT was after passing the panel interview.

Well, it looks like we've got 10 days until the Phase III portion of hiring supposedly begins. Hopefully we'll hear something this week about our exam scores and if we get to continue on to the next phase.

I'm hoping for this announcement to go well.

Offering $75,608 entry-level pay for a job that doesn't require a degree or experience would have attracted a lot of qualified people in the past. I wonder how recruitment levels are nationwide.

The beginning of the Phase III assessment window is March 23rd, so it makes sense for us to get the results of Phase II prior to that date.

I was at an interview last week for a different and one of the other applicants was current BOP. He said something about it taking a year for them to send new hires to FLETC. Is that true?
