Duties
Applicants must be a U.S. Citizen or eligible to work in the United States. A written examination will be provided to qualified applicants. New Officers are required to attend a six-week training academy at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) in Charleston, South Carolina.
Prior to appointment, the selectee considered for this position will undergo a medical examination and drug screening. Upon successful completion of the medical and drug screening, the selectee may then be provisionally appointed.
