I applied to 2 separate announcements. One was for schedule B and the other was a continuous announcement. I scheduled the (new clinical version ) PTT last week. Unfortunately failed the run by 10 secs ( my own fault as I haven’t run on a treadmill in years, just outside on a track or a road route).

Received the email that my application was closed out for the first announcement. Then I received an email that my application was also closed on the second announcement as well. Since I also received a separate link to schedule the other announcements PTT I went and called to schedule it. I emailed the SAIO email questioning why the second announcement application was closed out and received no reply. The scheduling company called me back and are now trying to schedule this next PT.

My question is if I get this next PTT scheduled will it not be counted since I received the email from cloud@palladum that both my applications were closed out? Or has anyone dealt with this before?

For context (hopefully) this next PTT will go fine. I did a mock clinical test and figured out my treadmill time and was well under the standard.

This is for the ATF.

Just Had a poly a few weeks ago for a position and had a random thought just now. the examiner made me do the ol “answer the questions in your head” after having me answer out loud once or twice. My question is, how would they know if im answering yes or no to disqualifying questions if im not saying it out loud? Couldn’t you answer yes to a question that would disqualify you and it shows on graph or whatever that you’re telling the truth but the examiner doesn’t know if it was yes or no lol. Do they somehow compare to your first set of answers/responses when you did say them out loud? I hope what im asking makes sense.

Good afternoon everyone.

About a year ago, I was onboarded as a GL-9 Special Agent with HSI during a wave of the surge hiring period. Unfortunately, after a few months, I had to leave the position due to an urgent family matter (right before starting FLETC). It was a very difficult decision, especially after spending years working towards the position, but it was outside of my control.

I’m now looking to go through the process again and plan on reaching out to my previous POCs. In the meantime, does anyone know if there is currently a GL-9 HSI announcement open to the public? I’ve been checking USAJOBS but haven’t been able to find one. If not, has anyone heard when the next one might open?

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone here received an EOD offer from DEA while still on active duty, with about a year remaining on their military contract after the proposed EOD date?

If so, was DEA willing to work with you and push back or hold the EOD date until you could separate, or did you have to work something out with the military to get an early release?

For context, my recruiter is already aware that I’m currently on active duty and knows about my remaining service obligation. I’ve been upfront about my active-duty status throughout the process. However, each time I’m contacted to complete the next step, it seems like they may not realize or remember that I’m still on active duty and have more than a year remaining on my contract.

I’m currently in the later stages of the hiring process, and I’m trying to figure out the best options in case I receive an EOD date before my active-duty obligation ends. I definitely don’t want to miss out on the opportunity if there’s a way to make it work.

I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has personally been through a similar situation or knows someone who has.
