Interview with an FBI Agent?

FBI Interviews and beyond...

• Carole, I am currently partway through the process of becoming an FBI agent.  I took a Portuguese proficiency test (even though my area of emphasys is computers with a BS in Computer Science), and the next step for me is to have the interview before a panel of 3 FBI agents.  The most solid advice I have received so far is "Be Honest... No really, be *completely* honest." (This from an FBI agent I spoke with) What I'm really wanting to know is what I can do to better prepare myself for that interview, and what can I do to prepare myself for steps that come after that (I believe it's the PF test after that, along with the polygraph).  I have only wanted something this bad one other time in my life, and I married her. :).  What I'm trying to say is that I'm willing to go to great lengths to prepare myself for this.  Oh, and I'm already working out and getting myself ready for the physical fitness test, so I've got that part covered. Thanks a ton Carole, --Jared

  Hello Jared, The FBI - Phase II interview is the most intense and challenging interview of its kind. I have been coaching FBI candidates for more than three years and have had a wonderful success rate helping people pass this unusual interview. The challenge is that the agents interviewing you will only know one thing about you - your name. They will not have access to any applications or other documents - it is a "blind date." Because the interview is primarily "behavioral based," preparation will be ESSENTIAL - or you will fail and have to wait a year before you can apply again. What a waste!
