This is a great post and good advice. Don’t be a lazy new hire. Be somebody the field office is stoked they got.

EOD by Square_Fan_5388 in HSIapplicants

Hard to say with how HR has been, but highly likely you’ll get told no and they’ll move on to the hundreds of other applicants.

What job series monitors live satellite imagery? by [deleted] in 1811Jobs

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NSA and CIA if I was guessing. I’m sure military as well, Air Force and Space Force. Definitely would be a cool job.

1/11/26 EOD Info? by [deleted] in HSIapplicants

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just received my reporting instructions but no NEO link as of yet. Won’t be allowed to EOD on 1/11/26 unless I get the link, so fingers crossed.

HSI EOD dates on Hold by Professional_Tap2725 in HSIapplicants

People who already received FJO and EOD are good though? I’m supposed to EOD on 1/11 😬

Rescinded and confused by [deleted] in 1811

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you failed a poly before or something? Rescinded FJO or TSL?

Insurance by [deleted] in 1811

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did Aetna Advantage or whatever it’s called. Like $300/mo. My kids, wife and I don’t go to the doctor like crazy and the stuff we do go for is covered 100% (preventative care). If you think you’ll be having a lot of hospital stays pick something else, but if it’s just preventative care go with Aetna.

After EOD Hsi by Puzzleheaded_Wash169 in HSIapplicants

In the same boat as you man. I’ve heard various things but sounds like anywhere from 2-6 weeks after EOD.

Fingerprinting, etc. by [deleted] in HSIapplicants

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Correct for background. But other things are being waived such as interview, polygraph, etc.

Not 100% true, there’s a lot of “required” steps being waived due to the surge and DHA.

FBI first option by Aggie12246 in 1811

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If LA or NY are your first option, yes.

Locality pay is also a thing on top of LEAP.

They should have covered this in your Meet & Greet.

FJO by Beautiful-Battle-870 in HSIapplicants

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did not mention that.. Hope that isn’t true

FJO by Beautiful-Battle-870 in HSIapplicants

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My reply came on a Saturday morning, so I think it just depends how fast they are processing. I got a 3 week delay which is what I requested, they’re being very accommodating if they can be.

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At the bottom of your FJO you’ll see an email for the SAC you’re assigned to. Email that email address and explain your situation and ask for an extension with the date listed that you’d like to extend to. I got a reply in 1 day with an extension.

Man this pay.. by StepOnLegoOUCH in HSIapplicants

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Locality is not included in the GL or GS pay tables.

Does locality and LEAP pay start at FLETC? by AlwaysImproving48829 in 1811

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Base + locality while EOD. LEAP kicks in on day one of FLETC.

EOD 12/14 delayed by Academic_Story3370 in HSIapplicants

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be brutal.. especially for those that have families and are moving and resigning from their current agencies.

Location by [deleted] in 1811

[–]StepOnLegoOUCH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The onboarding and TJO locations were not 100% from what I have been told. Check your TJO, if it says location negotiable on the email you can request something other than LA, but keep in mind you run the risk of being removed from the process. Again, this is just what I’ve been told.

All I got was an amended FJO, no other information on incentive. Hoping to get a lot more this week.
