Finally received the email that my background is now complete. I have the approved for hire profile. The date has not changed and it still shows that I am still in background. |

Quick question: After how many days did you see the Approved for Hire Profile & where ? My BI was completed before the Thanksgiving and still do not received any email nor update on portal. TIA, So I received the email that my background was complete and I logged in right after and saw the approved for hire profile. My date still hasn't changed and it still shows I am in background. Its going to be located on the same page where you click your applications, your notifications etc. Edited by user Friday, December 10, 2021 7:26:34 AM(UTC)

Right! At first, I felt bad for declining the positions they offered me, but I’m glad I did. We deserve to be happy and confident in our selection. Praying we all accept an FJO by March lol it’s been a long time coming! Originally Posted by: HopefullyChozen2Lead  Originally Posted by: Bikerrr  Congrats!!! Finally!!!

Feel free to PM but I wanted to know what position did they offer you and how long after your background did you get a FJO? |

Has anybody been offered a CJO for GS-09? All mine have came in GS-07, but I have a Masters Degree and I know that is a equalification for GS-09.

Once you complete the background, can you apply for the positions listed under current perm or do you only apply for the ones open for all? |

@juju19 depending on the position, a masters degree may not bump you up a grade. For example, OST caps out at GS-8. Most people get offers at GS-7 and you can be evaluated for a GS-8, but the required experience is very specific to the position. It sucks but I guess it just shows that some of these positions are very temporary and used as feeders for other FBI positions.

After a year, I finally got my FO! I'm headed to DC. Thanks for the insight and this group was a great reference.
@Midwest2NYC I was able to get it updated to GS-09.
