    Fazle, incredible video. You explained each step in great detail. I recently applied to EWR here in NJ and I was selected to take my computer-based test. What kinds of questions do they ask during the federal interview? Thank you!

      In a next few weeks I'll be setting up a way to help people 1-on-1 with Federal job interview prep, resume writing and prep, and how to evaluate a Federal job posting and keyword evaluation.
      If you're interested in 1-on-1 help after you pass your CBT, let me know. I'll send you the details on how to get started.
      The types of questions on the CBT will be basic reading and writing, with the difficulty of an 8th grade final exam.
      The xray test is a different story. It tests color vision. To get an idea of what it will be like. go to Google and search "x-ray baggage screening images". Go through those images and try to identify the objects in the pictures. Those will be the same types of images you'll see on the xray portion of the CBT. I went in a took the test cold, back in 2009. There was no information on all this back then, especially no images on Google.

      This new version of the test seems to make more sense because when you’re looking at an X-ray image it’s one big puzzle. You’re having to find different object and piece them together in your head to make sure everything in the bag makes sense and that it looks like it supposed to be there.

      I have applied to the FB group with both of my FB accounts.
      I completed the CBT, and filled out everything for the E-qip SF-86 and submitted it a few weeks ago but I haven't received any response about the background check. I'm wondering when they will start the investigation or if they already have.
      I'm still waiting for my airport assessment, and I even completed a second application to a different airport nearby to hopefully increase the odds of being selected soon for airport assessment.
      How would I know when the background investigation is complete? Does every applicant get interviewed by a investigator? Do they send a email to inform me that the investigation is complete?

    • @theTSAguy
      @theTSAguy  3 роки тому +5

      1. You will have an actual interview with an investigator and you'll get a document uploaded to your eOFP when your investigation is complete. Don't worry about this for now.
      2. Yes everyone gets an interview
      3. Yes

    I'm heading to my "Airport Assessment" in Kona Hawaii this Wednesday. (Its in an office building near a Costco a couple miles from the Airport ) I passed my CBT almost 2 years ago! I'm pretty sure the Pandemic added a year to my process!

Thanks for your videos, they are helping me prepare for the assessment!

      Medical takes a few hours, background cash take 90 days to get your interview scheduled and then another 90 to you get a final result. You get an interim clearance to your full investigation clears. There's no way to speed up the process even if you're former military or police. Every agency does your investigation all over again, unless you're getting an upgrade in clearance within the same agency.

      If you want to ball park what you will be paid. Look up the GS-5 pay in your locality. Then subtract 10k off that. If you're part-time, after you subtract 10k, then you divide by 2.

    Hi! Thank you for the detailed video. I have a question. I took the new CBT exam and never got the results from them. A few days later I got an email with the conditional offer. I accepted and filled out a bunch of forms with deadline dates. At this point the E-Qip is the only form pending but I have not been given the code for it. I had applied for the TSA position 2 years and a code was provided to me but that has long expired. I reached out to the helpdesk email but response since a week. Any advice for me. I read on various forums that people reach out to the airports with similar issues but i have no contact with any airport staff that can help me with logging into the E-QiP website.

    I’m not sure if you answered this , but what do you recommend on attire to the airport assessment interview? Suit or is jeans and a button up shirt okay ?

    • @theTSAguy
      @theTSAguy  2 роки тому +1

      The airport assessment is now virtual via Webex due to COVID. When doing virtual interviews you can wear a button-up shirt. I usually throw on a tie and sport coat to show them I'm serious about the job. Even when I do phone interviews I still wear a suit and tie just to get into the proper interview mind set.
      I actually cover dress-code in my video on interviewing.
      When it comes to interviews you always want to dress conservatively. There have been multiple reports of people passing the CBT but still received rejection notices due to showing up in jeans. The rejection notice literally stated, "Failure to adhere to professional attire". I too thought that was taking it too far but the TSA does require testing sites to complete candidate evaluation forms. The forms do ask about how the candidate is dressed and punctuality.
      During my in-person interview in 2011 there were several people that showed up in jeans. One guy even had on a sweater vest and a tie with nice jeans that he ironed. Long story-short....I never saw any them again.
      Ask yourself this, if you were a federal hiring manager and your candidate walked in wearing jeans, would you hire them to represent your agency?
      If you haven't subscribed go ahead and do so. I'll have more videos coming.

I applied, I took a test, I received an email with task to complete including the e 86, now im due for the interview. Im extremely nervous because Ive been with my current employer for 24 years.

      The progress tracker in the candidate portal is just an info-graphic. If that does not update then there is still nothing to worry about. You're waiting on security clearance and drug testing. Once everything clears then you will be moved to the "ready pool". You'll get an email notifying.
