@@evanmonast5522 being a reservist is fine, depending on what your full-time job is. My question to you would be - why go through all the same training if you can just go active and get accepted to Officer Candidate School?

First, go to college, because it's unfortunately required now. While there, you'll probably get ruined by the course work, and wokeness, then you'll loose interest in joining anything "Federal", or law enforcement. Welcome to the world. The Marshal Service is still probably the best of the Feds, but how long that will last is anybody's guess.
There was a time I use to steer good people, and younger people to law enforcement, and helped them with what they should know, and be prepared for. Not anymore. Same with the military unfortunately. If they really have the special operations bug, and can't get rid of it, I'll help there, but in general, I advise to go do something else personally rewarding. At the federal level, you can see the decline of law enforcement agencies almost to the year that they started requiring college, and wouldn't accept work experience, and background. Book learning over common sense and street experience. Add that to the political corruption at higher agency levels......not good. Alcoholism, drug use, divorce, suicide, and professional misconduct all higher than they were even ten years ago. Not a recipe for happy life. Well that's enough of my soap box.

A lot of secret service agents leave and go to the US Marshals and other agencies. The US Marshals is a symbol of what was right infrastructure wise about the federal government which was suppose to be very minimal. The primary purpose of the US Marshals is to serve and protect the federal district courts in order to ensure the perseverance and function of the federal justice system. Every function revolves around that. Why seize assets? Because it was court ordered. Why look for a fugitive? Because a judge ordered it. Why transport that prisoner and bring him to court? Because the court ordered it. Why investigate delinquent sex offender registrants? Because it was ordered by a judge and it’s a violation. Why protect witnesses? Because a judge says so. Everything is to serve the courts. Now a days there are so many federal agencies can’t even tell them apart anymore.
The uniformed secret service is a boring job. Even the special agent position is not good in my opinion. The Marshals are a good service, but like any other unit, it has disadvantages. Usually each district U.S. Marshal is a law enforcement professional, but this is not required as POTUS can appoint anyone. I agree that there are so many OIG offices and military quasi law enforcement agencies, that there are far too many. Generally, most state and local were happy with their job, but nowadays, I dont think so. Going to any law enforcement today should require careful consideration from anyone because much of our government has gone bat shit crazy.
@@federallawenforcementcaree9900 brother you are speaking facts. You know I always go for a walk every day and think about this stuff, I’m 21 years old in my last year of college and I’m trying to find my purpose in this planet, and I thought law enforcement was it now with all the shit going on is not worth it anymore at least at the local level and state level. Is a sad situation you know I haven’t think of another career that I would enjoy doing if law enforcement ends up not working out for me specially at these crucial times in our country. I wish I could talk more about this stuff with people closer to me but they just don’t understand as you do, god bless you sir.
I’m a criminal justice student in college my school has had a couple of people go into the USMS right after graduation. I’m trying to follow that path. I know that those kids were the cream of the crop in our department but I’m slowly getting to the level they were on when they graduated
You can do it! Get the highest GPA possible for you can be eligible for GL-7. I been out of college for 4 months. I’m a CJ major as well. I have my interview for USMS in July. I’m super excited and very humbled for the opportunity.
A girl I went to middle school with was found missing in dc and she was a sweetheart and it’s just mysterious as fuck when I search her name just her picture pops up and her articles is missing….I been in the juvenile system but wasn’t raised wrong or in a bad environment I just went through a lot with my family and decision making …. but back on topic , I want to get sworn in and help apprehend and prosecute the evil in our country I’m only 17 and I’m trying my best to obtain the knowledge that I’ll need if I’m gonna truly make it in this…thanks for the intel good sir may god bless you and yours
I’m planning on join the sheriff office then become a deputy sheriff then work alongside deputy us marshal task forces then become a deputy us marshal thanks this video is helpful
I initially did my first meeting July 2019, I am currently doing my background investigation. Then who knows when I could do an academy. Miss your videos!
i was in the army for 7yrs and done three tours over in Iraq but. I wasn't doing my regular job. I was assigned to do check points security work. Once I got back to state side I started working as a security officer. I have fugitive recovery back round behind me and I am 45yrs old. Would that disqualify me to become a US Marshal?
Im a current police officer and seriously considering USMS after assisting them with serving a warrant in my city. Already submitted an email to attend a informational session. Thanks for the info!
Currently in Air Force Security Forces, maybe looking at doing OSI for the Air Force. But currently trying to get my bachelors while I am in. I joined at 22, kinda wanted to do my full 20. However if the Max age is 37, I might get out to pursue this career. Wish I would of joined earlier now.
@@federallawenforcementcaree9900 yeah I would be 42 exactly. I would need to get out. Good news is that it’s a federal job and I can’t keep on investing in my TSP
I went from active (Security Forces) to Air Guard. Started my career with the feds in INS then switched to USMS. Retired from the guard in 2007 as a MSgt then from the USMS in 2017. So doing both is possible. But if you can go AFOSI that’s really not a bad way to go, it was one option I was thinking about.
@@jameslyons6655 I’ve thought about doing OSI. I think it would help out a lot. But maybe leaving AD and going to the guard wouldn’t be a bad idea. I’ve heard USMS is selective. But I have years to try to get my foot in the door? How do you like it so far?
I’m currently a senior in college majoring in Intelligence and Security. I’m going to be commissioning into the Air Force in May, hopefully as a Security Forces officer, but i do not know what my job will be yet. After four years of active duty time, Im hoping to switch to the guard/reserves and become a US Marshal. What sort of graduate degree/career opportunities should I look out for while in the Air Force to increase my chances of getting accepted into the US Marshal Service?
Just about any degree would be good the the US Marshals. They do not do the specialty work that is done in some other agencies, so whatever you are interested in taking would be your best course of action.
If you have a GPA of 2.9 or higher, you would fully qualify. I would apply to as many agencies as possible...you can apply to DEA and Secret Svc, but also put in for other federal jobs, which will provide experience.
This in formation was super helpful. I was prior military, then corporate business for ten years, selected for FBI, USMS. About to graduate. Your videos really helped. Only thing that was incorrect, I did use the gym nearly daily (I’m sure the difficulty of academy life has significantly adjusted, haha). Thank you. TSP guidance is also gold.
I was looking to get into federal law enforcement and was deciding between US Marshals, HSI, abd ICE. I would like to join USMS But I heard they get into alot of shootings
So, if i have 4 years of expirence with a local police agency. I qualify, due to my expirence, for the posistion of Deputy U.S. Marshal without a college degree? or would i still need one?
Yes, you would qualify. I believe that the USMS are hiring right now and there are different levels one can qualify to apply for....once they begin hiring, I would recommend you apply.
@@kingpinstewie4961 usajobs.gov has some jobs, but unfortunately not all. Check with individual agencies....the DEA vacancy is on the agency website, but not on usajobs.
You can qualify with a degree alone or with experience or with a combination of the two. For instance, if you have a hs diploma and spent several years on a sheriff's department meeting the job description of the position for which you are applying, that is sufficient. On the other hand, if you have a BA, that in itself is sufficient without experience.
My advice for anyone interested in wanting to join the US Marshals service, call the district you want to work in and call the Marshal recruiter for that district.
I know this is a old video but I am looking towards trying to go the career path of being a US Marshal after I ETS in the military. Is there anything I should be doing now to be better prepared?
You can. If you're just applying with law enforcement experience you have to understand there will be Vets with that plus a degree. If you're not a vet and you have LE experience having that degree will be key. Damn near everybody applying nowadays has at least a degree.
Yes a 2.9 GPA with a BA will qualify for a GS7. A BA with any GPA will qualify for a GS5. Nowadays they are only selectively recruiting a few here and there, mostly police officers who work on the Task Forces. Hopefully they will hire more this year.
I was a rookie with Fort Worth Police when 911 hit. US Air Marshalls were taking transfers like crazy, looking for any cops to tranfer over. I'm 52 now. Trying to go Postal Police or VA Police. I have Military as well. Wld like to apply for this...
Become a local or state cop and start gaining that experience. A lot of agencies give incentives to further your education too so look into that if money is ever the issue. Like he said Marshals don't necessarily need a college degree, it's just a massive leg up.
Good evening. I am in the national guard, drilling @ an infantry unit in my state and doing ROTC IOT become an Army infantry/combat arms officer. Would having an infantry background be helpful in federal law enforcement, especially the US Marshals?
Thank you for this information! I have an info session for USMS in about 3 weeks. I am highly considering them for future employment and need I need all the information about the agency that I can get my hands on.
Kyle how did it go? I'm in south texas and i want to go to a session for the schedule b session? But i don't know when they are hiring this is my dream right here!
@@VasquezBaltazarFam90 so the info session is cool and they do make you feel interested but after I filled out my questionnaire (which my rep said was extremely competitive) I didn’t even get an interview. Apparently I wasn’t the “targeted population” 🙄
im a recent college grad and my goal is to one day become a US Marshal. Im currently in the hiring process with a few local PDs so assuming I get hired what's the best course of action for me to take to increase my chances of becoming a marshal?
Basically all s/l law enforcement should give you a good basis for being hired as a DUSM. Most of the necessary skills you will probably already have as a police officer, so just be patient and hopefully they will announce soon. You may want to reach out to their recruiter in the judicial district where you live to see if they are hiring under direct hire provisions.
If you don't have a usajobs account I'd get on that ASAP, also I'd make sure your resume is ready to go. The Marshals also have a recent graduate hiring announcement so I'd look at for that as well.
Currently 19 years old in college for criminology im going into my 3rd of college . My question was do I still have to the academy after words . In if yes where should I start like how to join were to sign up in when should I hear back ,
@@JayMol97 You can just understand there are a lot of people applying who have degrees, who are also vets with LE experience. Try to be as competitive as possible.
@@randomlyposter1974 no. Everybody hates MPs and you’ll be handling drunk soldiers and sitting in a car all day waiting for somebody to go over the limit
@@jessehawkes1298 dang sound like you got anger to Marines but one more question I know now they have changed Meps what do I tell me recruiter about my medical health? Do I still not talk or talk if you are unfamiliar with what I am talking about look it up? And thanks
Hello sir, My plan currently is to get my bachelors degree on business aviation and masters on forensic science. Then possibly work in the forensic science field for a few years before applying to the USMS. Is there anything you would suggest? Maybe anything I could add on or different route that you would take from my point? Are there any suggestions you could give me for possibly getting a higher chance of becoming a US Marshal?
Can anyone answer this question? All federal agencies I've seen usually require a polygraph exam before hire. U.S. Marshal Service says a background investigation but nothing about a polygraph. I'd be pretty surprised if they don't polygraph their applicants. Is a polygraph just looped in with the background investigation?
They don’t do a polygraph but keep in mind the people conducting the interview are highly trained, experienced investigators who get lied to on the regular. If you are at the interview and they hit an area where they feel you are being less than fully forthcoming, you’re not laying all your cards on the table, then good luck to you. You may have had a better chance beating the box.
@@jameslyons6655 I've had to take a polygraph for municipal police jobs and I've passed. I still hate them just because you have to air out all your dirty laundry and feel like shit but I get it and it definitely works. I'm surprised they don't have something like that to put pressure on an applicant.
Yep, 100%. My friend was BOP for 3 years and got hired by the Marshals. He was told Marshals like hiring BOP because the experience translates to what the Marshals do on a daily basis. BOP is a good stepping stone.
@@edgargutierrez1844 His degree was in progress, and we were both prior service. His BOP experience got him hired because the degree isn't an a requirement. He finished it after he was hired. So his vet preference and BOP experience got him the job.
That would definitely help. The USNA is an excellent choice and you may find that you want to serve in the USN or USMC for 20, so your options are wide open.
@@federallawenforcementcaree9900 I still wanna join, as to update I’m two years in college. I’m in for a criminal Justice degree with a minor in psychology. I won’t be joining the military anymore. Would you say I’m on the right track so far? I’m 21 and after college I was thinking of maybe becoming a bail bondsman agent while wait for recruitment openings. Would you say this a good idea?
I am currently 19 years old and just got finished with an internship at my counties sheriffs office and an officer really got me interested in the U.S marshals. I will be graduating from the police academy next may. My question is would I need to get my bachelors degree do be a marshal or would work experience be enough to potentially be hired?
Yes, getting your degree would help and make you more competitive in the hiring process. You're young, get through patrol first then get into some investigative units with your agency. You're in a good spot to build your resume before you hit 30.
Sir, I thought the oldest federal law enforcement agency is actually the US Postal Inspection Service? Doesn’t it’s origins technically predate the constitution itself 🤔 Also I’m loving this exploring federal law enforcement series you have... are you going to talk about military federal law enforcement agencies too? That’d be awesome 😎
Surveyors law enforcement capacity was very vague and relatively unknown during the colonial period. They weren’t officially called special agents until early 1800’s. The US Marshal and it’s deputies on the other hand was a badge and gun agency from its origin. You don’t get anymore law enforcement in the feds side than a Deputy US Marshal.
I'm a current deputy sheriff, thanks for making these! I'm learning a bunch
Thanks

Thanks for the kind words.
Just passed my Polygraph today. Waiting on background. Let’s go!
So a US marshal deputy is basically a Sheriff deputy on the federal level?
That is a good analogy.
First, go to college, because it's unfortunately required now. While there, you'll probably get ruined by the course work, and wokeness, then you'll loose interest in joining anything "Federal", or law enforcement. Welcome to the world.

I wish I could talk more about this stuff with people closer to me but they just don’t understand as you do, god bless you sir.
I’m a criminal justice student in college my school has had a couple of people go into the USMS right after graduation. I’m trying to follow that path. I know that those kids were the cream of the crop in our department but I’m slowly getting to the level they were on when they graduated
You can do it! Get the highest GPA possible for you can be eligible for GL-7.
I been out of college for 4 months. I’m a CJ major as well. I have my interview for USMS in July. I’m super excited and very humbled for the opportunity.
@@eman_98 what is a GL-7 ?
@@eman_98 also congrats on landing the interview
@@anthonymaselli7533 it’s a pay grade and level within the USMS and also for other federal agency’s.
@@anthonymaselli7533 thank you I appreciate it.

US Marshals Nice & Good.
Hello sir how would I contact you for help with my resume?
flecfuture@gmail.com
Can you join the USMS if you’re still currently serving in the military as a Reservist or National Guard?
I’m planning on join the sheriff office then become a deputy sheriff then work alongside deputy us marshal task forces then become a deputy us marshal thanks this video is helpful
Odds of getting in with a Bachelor and associates in stem with 3.2 gpa and firearms and mma experience?
I initially did my first meeting July 2019, I am currently doing my background investigation. Then who knows when I could do an academy. Miss your videos!
How’s it going?
What is the actual hiring process? Like what does each step consist of?
I will pray for the whole world to go to heaven love your Christian faith friend Timmy lee hart
i was in the army for 7yrs and done three tours over in Iraq but. I wasn't doing my regular job. I was assigned to do check points security work. Once I got back to state side I started working as a security officer. I have fugitive recovery back round behind me and I am 45yrs old. Would that disqualify me to become a US Marshal?
Unfortunately you are past the age limit to be hired as a DUSM.
@@stephenhall5115you get a age wavier if you served in the military
Im a current police officer and seriously considering USMS after assisting them with serving a warrant in my city. Already submitted an email to attend a informational session. Thanks for the info!
@@clemson1013 College degree isn't required, it just makes you more competitive. Military experience is a plus as well as other LE experience.
Any updates bro?
I was offered a job with the USMS back in the 80's. I always have regreted not taking the job
Currently in Air Force Security Forces, maybe looking at doing OSI for the Air Force. But currently trying to get my bachelors while I am in. I joined at 22, kinda wanted to do my full 20. However if the Max age is 37, I might get out to pursue this career. Wish I would of joined earlier now.
If you are a preference eligible, you can go over the 37 age limit. How much over depends on the agency. I think the cutoff is 42.
@@federallawenforcementcaree9900 yeah I would be 42 exactly. I would need to get out. Good news is that it’s a federal job and I can’t keep on investing in my TSP
I went from active (Security Forces) to Air Guard. Started my career with the feds in INS then switched to USMS. Retired from the guard in 2007 as a MSgt then from the USMS in 2017. So doing both is possible. But if you can go AFOSI that’s really not a bad way to go, it was one option I was thinking about.
@@jameslyons6655 I’ve thought about doing OSI. I think it would help out a lot. But maybe leaving AD and going to the guard wouldn’t be a bad idea. I’ve heard USMS is selective. But I have years to try to get my foot in the door? How do you like it so far?
I’m currently a senior in college majoring in Intelligence and Security. I’m going to be commissioning into the Air Force in May, hopefully as a Security Forces officer, but i do not know what my job will be yet. After four years of active duty time, Im hoping to switch to the guard/reserves and become a US Marshal. What sort of graduate degree/career opportunities should I look out for while in the Air Force to increase my chances of getting accepted into the US Marshal Service?
Just about any degree would be good the the US Marshals. They do not do the specialty work that is done in some other agencies, so whatever you are interested in taking would be your best course of action.
thats funny I'm a SF Lt right now looking to join reserves and do the US Marshall lol
How likely am I to get hired with a Bachelor's Degree and no experience?
If you have a GPA of 2.9 or higher, you would fully qualify. I would apply to as many agencies as possible...you can apply to DEA and Secret Svc, but also put in for other federal jobs, which will provide experience.
The Marshals have a recent graduate hiring announcement, so make sure you pay attention to USAJOBS.
This in formation was super helpful. I was prior military, then corporate business for ten years, selected for FBI, USMS. About to graduate. Your videos really helped. Only thing that was incorrect, I did use the gym nearly daily (I’m sure the difficulty of academy life has significantly adjusted, haha). Thank you. TSP guidance is also gold.
Can you do one on what you think about Fugitive Recovery.
I was looking to get into federal law enforcement and was deciding between US Marshals, HSI, abd ICE. I would like to join USMS But I heard they get into alot of shootings
It’s a law enforcement job. That’s part of the risk.
Do marshals conduct traffic stops?
No.
Have 5 years in TDCJ with 4 year degree. I have mediocre credit; would that hurt my chances in your opinion?
Only way to find out is to throw your name in there.
I thought the Postal Inspectors were the oldest Federal Law Enforcement agency.
So, if i have 4 years of expirence with a local police agency. I qualify, due to my expirence, for the posistion of Deputy U.S. Marshal without a college degree? or would i still need one?
Yes, you would qualify. I believe that the USMS are hiring right now and there are different levels one can qualify to apply for....once they begin hiring, I would recommend you apply.
@@federallawenforcementcaree9900 how do I know when they are hiring?
@@kingpinstewie4961 usajobs.gov has some jobs, but unfortunately not all. Check with individual agencies....the DEA vacancy is on the agency website, but not on usajobs.
@@kingpinstewie4961 schedule b hiring
A degree would make you more competitive . I would start working on it if you haven’t already.
What does it mean by “or a combination of education and experience”?
You can qualify with a degree alone or with experience or with a combination of the two. For instance, if you have a hs diploma and spent several years on a sheriff's department meeting the job description of the position for which you are applying, that is sufficient. On the other hand, if you have a BA, that in itself is sufficient without experience.
My advice for anyone interested in wanting to join the US Marshals service, call the district you want to work in and call the Marshal recruiter for that district.
Good advice as they can tell you about when the vacancies are likely to open and also about contract work until they do.
Yep. That's the only way to get the process started.
I’m very interested I almost get my bachelors hopefully as soon as I get it I can apply
I know this is a old video but I am looking towards trying to go the career path of being a US Marshal after I ETS in the military. Is there anything I should be doing now to be better prepared?
Be ready to run. PT at the academy is no joke.
@@jchfuture I think I get enough running but thanks lol
Get a masters degree
If you're a state trooper can you join US Marshal?
You can. If you're just applying with law enforcement experience you have to understand there will be Vets with that plus a degree. If you're not a vet and you have LE experience having that degree will be key. Damn near everybody applying nowadays has at least a degree.
To be clear, you don’t need experience? A bachelors degree in a related field with a gpa of 2.9 or higher is enough to get into the USMS?
Yes a 2.9 GPA with a BA will qualify for a GS7. A BA with any GPA will qualify for a GS5. Nowadays they are only selectively recruiting a few here and there, mostly police officers who work on the Task Forces. Hopefully they will hire more this year.
Can you make a video about the FBI?
So you do a lot of escorting prisoners
I was a rookie with Fort Worth Police when 911 hit.
US Air Marshalls were taking transfers like crazy, looking for any cops to tranfer over.
I'm 52 now. Trying to go Postal Police or VA Police.
I have Military as well.
Wld like to apply for this...
I'd love to be a Marshall but I'm 28 years old and don't plan on getting a 4 year degree anytime soon.
Become a local or state cop and start gaining that experience. A lot of agencies give incentives to further your education too so look into that if money is ever the issue. Like he said Marshals don't necessarily need a college degree, it's just a massive leg up.
I hear they have three new openings now !! 😆
All of your videos are really great. Very informational. Thank you.
Thank you.
Good evening. I am in the national guard, drilling @ an infantry unit in my state and doing ROTC IOT become an Army infantry/combat arms officer. Would having an infantry background be helpful in federal law enforcement, especially the US Marshals?
Thank you for this information! I have an info session for USMS in about 3 weeks. I am highly considering them for future employment and need I need all the information about the agency that I can get my hands on.
Kyle how did it go? I'm in south texas and i want to go to a session for the schedule b session? But i don't know when they are hiring this is my dream right here!
@@VasquezBaltazarFam90 so the info session is cool and they do make you feel interested but after I filled out my questionnaire (which my rep said was extremely competitive) I didn’t even get an interview. Apparently I wasn’t the “targeted population” 🙄
@@kylesissom5332 you serious?
@@VasquezBaltazarFam90 yea, I was rather put off by it because o really didn’t understand the reasoning behind it.
@@kylesissom5332 but i thought that if gou went to the session thats because you were getting hired?
im a recent college grad and my goal is to one day become a US Marshal. Im currently in the hiring process with a few local PDs so assuming I get hired what's the best course of action for me to take to increase my chances of becoming a marshal?
Basically all s/l law enforcement should give you a good basis for being hired as a DUSM. Most of the necessary skills you will probably already have as a police officer, so just be patient and hopefully they will announce soon. You may want to reach out to their recruiter in the judicial district where you live to see if they are hiring under direct hire provisions.
If you don't have a usajobs account I'd get on that ASAP, also I'd make sure your resume is ready to go. The Marshals also have a recent graduate hiring announcement so I'd look at for that as well.
I wonder if they would hire someone who was DOD/US Mililtary that is an EOD operator

Just bought a 3 story house here in Africa...guess I staying here
Currently 19 years old in college for criminology im going into my 3rd of college . My question was do I still have to the academy after words . In if yes where should I start like how to join were to sign up in when should I hear back ,
UK viewer, very interesting series, do UK citizens have access to apply for federal agencies or is US citizenship required first
I think you have had to be a resident of the us for atl east 5 years before you can be considered
@@animex2569 You have to be a citizen of the US. This wasnt always the case. I know two DEA Agents who were not citizens when they were hired.
Thanks for the help, got a mate leaving UK Armed forces and looking to relocate to US.
Can I join from being a police officer without any degree?
Yes. They accept many different backgrounds.
@@jdog0341 Thanks man!
@@JayMol97 You can just understand there are a lot of people applying who have degrees, who are also vets with LE experience. Try to be as competitive as possible.

Finally the information I’ve been looking for. After my 6 years in the army I’m definitely going to be a Marshall
I am thinking of mp good move?
@@randomlyposter1974 no. Everybody hates MPs and you’ll be handling drunk soldiers and sitting in a car all day waiting for somebody to go over the limit
@@jessehawkes1298 okay one more question is it s good idea for me to go marine corps instead of army
@@randomlyposter1974 go army. The quality of life is better, better funding, better gear. I swear to god if you go Marines I will hurt you

Hello sir,
My plan currently is to get my bachelors degree on business aviation and masters on forensic science. Then possibly work in the forensic science field for a few years before applying to the USMS. Is there anything you would suggest? Maybe anything I could add on or different route that you would take from my point? Are there any suggestions you could give me for possibly getting a higher chance of becoming a US Marshal?
Any LE experience would help really, knocking out your educations is key.
War with United States is Funny 😊
Can anyone answer this question? All federal agencies I've seen usually require a polygraph exam before hire. U.S. Marshal Service says a background investigation but nothing about a polygraph. I'd be pretty surprised if they don't polygraph their applicants. Is a polygraph just looped in with the background investigation?
No polygraph with the Marshals
@@jchfuture yep the only federal LE agency that does polygraph. very weird in my opinion
They don’t do a polygraph but keep in mind the people conducting the interview are highly trained, experienced investigators who get lied to on the regular. If you are at the interview and they hit an area where they feel you are being less than fully forthcoming, you’re not laying all your cards on the table, then good luck to you. You may have had a better chance beating the box.
@@jameslyons6655 I've had to take a polygraph for municipal police jobs and I've passed. I still hate them just because you have to air out all your dirty laundry and feel like shit but I get it and it definitely works. I'm surprised they don't have something like that to put pressure on an applicant.
The show justified makes a deputy Marshalls job look pretty bad ass.
Found this channel too late. Good content though!
Will BOP help becoming a marshal?
Yep, 100%. My friend was BOP for 3 years and got hired by the Marshals. He was told Marshals like hiring BOP because the experience translates to what the Marshals do on a daily basis. BOP is a good stepping stone.
@@jchfuture
how long did he worked for the bop and did he had a degree?
@@edgargutierrez1844 His degree was in progress, and we were both prior service. His BOP experience got him hired because the degree isn't an a requirement. He finished it after he was hired. So his vet preference and BOP experience got him the job.
It also allows to keep all of the same retirement. They only thing you would loose is, seniority.
Good afternoon to everyone!
Can a marshal pull someone over for a traffic violation?
No
The last thing this country needs is more feds
The last thing this country needs is criminals on the streets and people who support them. ;D
Can you do a video on HSI
Is there no polygraph?
🤔
No polygraph for the Marshals
I plan to go to the naval academy and be a special forces officer in the marines or navy. Will those help me get in? I’d love to do it after.
And to add to that, how good or bad would my odds be?
That would definitely help. The USNA is an excellent choice and you may find that you want to serve in the USN or USMC for 20, so your options are wide open.
Special Forces are only Army. You must mean special operations. Good luck.
Having vet status in federal law enforcement hiring is a plus
@@federallawenforcementcaree9900
I still wanna join, as to update I’m two years in college. I’m in for a criminal Justice degree with a minor in psychology. I won’t be joining the military anymore. Would you say I’m on the right track so far? I’m 21 and after college I was thinking of maybe becoming a bail bondsman agent while wait for recruitment openings. Would you say this a good idea?
I am currently 19 years old and just got finished with an internship at my counties sheriffs office and an officer really got me interested in the U.S marshals. I will be graduating from the police academy next may. My question is would I need to get my bachelors degree do be a marshal or would work experience be enough to potentially be hired?
Yes, getting your degree would help and make you more competitive in the hiring process. You're young, get through patrol first then get into some investigative units with your agency. You're in a good spot to build your resume before you hit 30.
@@jchfuture hey man thank you I appreciate the feedback!
@@bonessh2001 No problem, good luck
Sir, I thought the oldest federal law enforcement agency is actually the US Postal Inspection Service? Doesn’t it’s origins technically predate the constitution itself 🤔
Also I’m loving this exploring federal law enforcement series you have... are you going to talk about military federal law enforcement agencies too? That’d be awesome 😎
Surveyors law enforcement capacity was very vague and relatively unknown during the colonial period. They weren’t officially called special agents until early 1800’s. The US Marshal and it’s deputies on the other hand was a badge and gun agency from its origin. You don’t get anymore law enforcement in the feds side than a Deputy US Marshal.
Sorry to get back to you so late. Yes, I will.
It may very well. Sorry for the late response. I will look into that!
