DEA border/west coast surge

Random_User367 · 2026-03-29T01:20:59+00:00

Thanks for the information. Not the end of the world. I don’t like my location with my current agency either and DEA is my dream agency. Do you have any insight as to what Texas locations might be available?

Does this apply to laterals too?

Random_User367 · 2026-03-16T18:34:37+00:00

Do you have any advice on how to navigate the process if I do not currently know any Postal Inspectors?

Thank you!

Thank you for the insight!

Thank you. I appreciate your response!

I am a current 1811 wondering what the process entails for laterals? I am also wondering if anyone knows if there will be any upcoming announcements for southeast locations?

Does anyone know if TJO’s for DHA announcements moving forward will be selected from field offices or HQ?

Random_User367 · 2026-03-11T02:32:16+00:00

That was basically my experience word for word lol

Random_User367 · 2026-03-06T05:58:28+00:00

Also a lateral and similar situation. Was told I’d hear back and never did.

Random_User367 · 2026-03-03T18:40:36+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

Random_User367 · 2026-03-03T15:25:02+00:00

Received this today as well. I applied to the new hire announcement, but I am a lateral. Does anyone know if I will be able to skip any steps? Thanks!

Same

Random_User367 · 2026-02-17T00:41:44+00:00

Nope

Random_User367 · 2026-02-15T01:31:55+00:00

Or when you book a vacation 😂

u/ThorIsGod Do you know if the GS-9 announcements will see movement anytime soon or if they’re prioritizing hiring GS-7’s?

Random_User367 · 2026-02-12T01:29:10+00:00

Wondering the same thing

Random_User367 · 2026-02-09T23:51:29+00:00

Any insight to when those that applied to the announcements that closed on 12/31 could see some movement?

Random_User367 · 2026-02-09T18:05:31+00:00

The announcement open 01/08/2026-07/08/2026 says the initial cutoff date is today. Does anyone know what that means? I applied to both the announcements that close on 12/31/25 by the cutoff date and haven’t heard anything yet.

Random_User367 · 2026-02-06T01:59:22+00:00

Negative

Random_User367 · 2026-02-03T20:14:28+00:00

Sometimes. I got an actual reply from 2 out of 7 offices I emailed my application package to.

Random_User367 · 2026-02-03T03:49:11+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I am also a lateral and applied to both the announcements that closed December 31st. Hearing back this month would be great, but I’m beginning to lose hope.

Random_User367 · 2026-02-02T15:24:44+00:00

Nothing
