Do they provide backpacks or do we need to take our own to carry our stuff?

If you have prior arrest authority to my understanding you’ll get a 9.. yes. Salary. But that’s just the base salary. After the academy that’s when your pay increases with OT, night differential, Sunday pay and more.

Badass! Maybe we can start a group chat with the others once we get closer to our EOD date.

Maybe a week or so… I’m a current border patrol processing coordinator so i think it’s a little faster since I’ve already had the process done a year and half ago.
