Prior military flight time isn't a minimum.
I could have pasted that info, too. The point is not about the specific mins.
You applied to become a federal law enforcement officer who will carry a weapon every day, hold a Secret clearance, and have the authority to arrest suspects anywhere in the US (and jointly, in many countries). This is not an entry level job. Although vastly different in scope and duties, it's more comparable to a major airline in terms of compensation and experience. And just like getting into a major, they are looking for applicants who show preparedness, judgement, and leadership experience equal to the responsibility. As a new hire AIA, I would expect you to be able to do the same research and preparation I did to get this job.
That being said, it
is a G-job, and once you meet the mins, you're in the interview pool. Your chances then depend entirely on how high your application/resume scored. The better your answers to the questionaire, the better your chances to interview. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, you didn't apply through USAjobs, which means you didn't apply.
Good luck. I don't mean any of this derogatorally, and hope that if CBP is your goal, you get it. This is a great job, and worth the effort of a high score.
