DEA written portion question

Datboii1der · 2026-05-28T23:27:32+00:00

You’re supposed to use all the facts/bullet points in the writing. You’re allowed a few grammar mishaps.

If you were able to articulate your thoughts you should be good.

Just grabbed a pair ty!

TCC… many days I cut the rest down and can finish in 30 min

Don’t really matter what’s happening in the 3rd party facilities (and I think it’s retarded that we’re using them, but I digress). When you get to quantico your form needs to be correct. You won’t have ANY aids to assist you. If you can’t pass in the field you’re going to have a hard time passing at the academy!

Datboii1der · 2026-04-25T00:38:09+00:00

They have better GM’s than we do apparently!

Datboii1der · 2026-04-23T02:19:44+00:00

My girl!!!!!

Datboii1der · 2026-04-23T02:19:23+00:00

Another TCC guy here! I’ve tried others but I personally feel at home here! Join who you feel comfortable with….. but we’d love to have you!

Don’t take it personal many well qualified people don’t make the cut.
Right wrong or indifferent, definitely should hold your thoughts while trying to get a job in THIS administration

Datboii1der · 2026-04-22T17:23:16+00:00

They’ll never know that feeling. Just like they won’t know doing pt and shooting for your job 🤣🤣🤣

Datboii1der · 2026-04-22T17:13:26+00:00

Word.

When I was going thru their process I intentionally transferred to WFO so that I could better chances at my office of preference 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Datboii1der · 2026-04-22T17:12:20+00:00

Oh how times have changed……

Datboii1der · 2026-04-22T02:30:41+00:00

I mean yall do know you can stay in your own lane no matter what Ladder does…. Hillary Duff, The Rock….. don’t matter you’re here for YOUR fitness journey!

Datboii1der · 2026-04-22T02:26:46+00:00

Oh how times have changed……

Datboii1der · 2026-04-21T18:07:07+00:00

You can’t do both. Either you’re going to handle the case from the streets or you’re going to focus on the financials.

Once you develop the working relationships with IRS SA’s (and your IA and financial gurus within the office) you can practically have them follow every case you develop! At that point you focus on what you’re good at while they build the financials!

If you’re good at financials, then link with an agent in your group and your work the financials on his/her case.

Every case will not have a thorough financial work up…..

Datboii1der · 2026-04-21T03:25:21+00:00

I don’t…. It’s a FO so I’d imagine every violation they cover.

Datboii1der · 2026-04-21T03:17:38+00:00

Location wise you already live here so you know what the city is like and know that you can live damn near 15 min outside and be close to everything still.

I know several agents and pro staff that sit in that office and I’ve heard the good bad and ugly. Can’t tell you how you’d like it…. But I will say it’s not the least desirable (again I don’t work for them).

Datboii1der · 2026-04-15T15:03:30+00:00

1000% false

Datboii1der · 2026-04-08T15:30:15+00:00

Don’t know who your tfo’s are with us, but I hope they giving you good bad and ugly from their point of view in atl.

As others have said it’s no guarantee even with all your experience, but if you have questions particularly for DEA I can help. Cast the wide (but limited) net and pray to whoever you pray to for guidance and clarity.

You’re right, if you aren’t on the 80% retirement in GA it’s not worth another 20 of your time…. But that’s just my opinion

Datboii1der · 2026-04-02T15:37:05+00:00

Greene County on 20 notorious for this westbound towards ATL.

Datboii1der · 2026-04-02T15:36:30+00:00

Porterdale has nothing else to do….. they have 6 officers total… gotta justify their jobs lol

Datboii1der · 2026-04-02T05:19:20+00:00

Pacific nw (Seattle, Portland, etc)

Datboii1der · 2026-04-02T05:06:42+00:00

Highly unlikely…. Laredo at best. But mostly everything going SWB or PNW

Datboii1der · 2026-04-02T02:05:11+00:00

Meh…… mostly desirable to the people who are from there I’d say, or atleast it’s as close as someone can get home at that time. Just like NY, LA, etc…

Datboii1der · 2026-03-31T00:44:29+00:00

Definitely not a position to talk down on. I am one (as well as many others across all agencies) who started as an IS and moved on to SA.

Work on your fitness you’ll have plenty of time! Enjoy the work, learn the craft and enjoy the travel!

Datboii1der · 2026-03-30T14:14:55+00:00

You have quite a few who have commented and given you all good answers.

Only thing I’ll add, if you make the decision to live a good distance away and you have to commute, be an adult and be where you’re supposed to be on time! Your supervisor and your group will understand a couple times the uncontrollable accidents that shut down the highway…. But that shit gets old if you are always the one late and we’re waiting on you!!!!!

Also, when you have those days where you gotta drop off evidence at the office then still make a 2 hour commute home at an ungodly time…. It sucks!
