Special Agent
If I have any questions along the way, is there anyone I may reach out to directly for information?
Why is a background investigation needed?
Is there a limit to how many jobs I may apply for, or a timeframe that I must adhere to? For example, may I apply to jobs continuously or do I need to wait for a period of time to pass before continuing my job search?
I am very interested in workplace flexibilities. How can I know whether and which flexibilities may be offered to me in this position?
I would be moving across the country if selected for this position. Will any relocation expenses be covered?
I have read about Student Loan Repayment Programs (SLRP) and would be very interested in being considered. How may I know whether I qualify?
Is it advisable to apply to jobs for which I do not have experience with? For example, if I have a Law enforcement background, but want to pursue an administrative position, or vice versa?
I’ve been out of the workforce for the past several years. How should I choose which experience(s) to include? Is there a timeframe that deems some work experience or jobs “outdated” or “irrelevant” because they were so long ago?
How can I decide which work or educational experiences are relevant to the position I am applying for? Should I over-include, when in doubt, or exclude from my resume?
I have only worked in the private sector and do not know how to equate my experience to the GS scale. How can I figure this out?
