    Im a CBP Officer. People also need to keep in mind that as a Uniformed Officer once you are off the clock you are off the clock. Special Agents are usually on call. Everything career have their plus and minus.

      Agents have duty. On call but it’s really split between the agents in that office. It’s not bad at all in most offices

    Don't forget 1810 series special agents (general investigator). I worked in thi capacity for what is now called the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) conducting government background investigations. A great career path especially for those interested in an unarmed position. In addition to your GS salary you also receive additional locality pay in an amount depending on your geographic location. I started as a GS-7 and progressed to the GS-12 level in a few short years.

    There’s not a mandatory 20 year retirement. You’re eligible to retire after 20 years and at age 50 or 25 years and at any age.

      Army CIDC has changed since 2001, 2010 era... The Army are starting to use both Senior NCOs Warrant Officers, Commissioned Officers: company grade. CIDC is now more like Air Force OSI 🕵🏼‍♂️ . Both now use trained civilians & active duty SAs.

      I’m 19 and studying criminal justice too. I spoke to some agents and they said they started applying in their senior year. I’m thinking of going for USSS uniformed division or border patrol since they’re the easiest to get into and transfer to another federal law enforcement job after a few years

Thanks for the information, i’ve also heard the same thing that’s it’s good to apply to almost every agency because it’s not guaranteed to get into the one you really want. But as long as you get in do couple years then you can transfer into the agency you really want

    • @ghostJC1126

      Get your degree, majority of agents are just college grads some with military. Only meet a damn few with spec ops plus degree in that field. If you’re thinking you’ll be kicking down doors as a Marshal, nope. Takes years to get out on a fugitive task force.

      @@rothefoe11 no worries, I’ll just give you some advice. If you fail at first, keep pursuing. If you want to be a door kicker, FBI really is the only Federal agency with a dedicated door kicking unit HRT. There’s also Nuclear Courier which are mostly all Spec Forces guys. FAST teams for DEA were disbanded almost a decade ago.

      Trust me, DEA still kicks in doors. FAST was simply the foreign deployed unit. Domestic DEA offices kick in doors on a regular basis.

    • @ghostJC1126
      @ghostJC1126 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @jimbrown7069 They utilize their SRT teams and some Groups do, but mostly this new gen of management wants these specialized units to conduct these enforcement operations. Even one of the original FAST team members (we had a conversation at a bar) stated they have moved away from these type of enforcement. I observed this as well, but I blame the Administrator. Plus, being assigned to these SRT units, you’re still a case agent. FBI, Marshals, and Bortac, are the only specialized units that primarily focus on just that (not a collateral duty).
