I work for DOJ and posessing a degree is really the major hurrdle in applying. Doesn't matter really what it is in. Next your credit history needs to be perfect or near perfect. The better your history the better your chances. If you are going to your second interview more than likely they are interviewing neighbors or will be asking for that info. You will be evaluated by your answers in the initial questioneer/test. Be honest! Remember to answer the questions in the interview with the understanding of how they want to hear them (if that makes sense). If you do not know an answer tell them, and also tell them you will do the necessary research to have that answer next time. What GS is the position open at and what is the highest potential? Is this for a Special Agent opening or a Police Officer within DSS? I am a GS-11 instructor now and started as a GS-6 Officer way back just to get in the door. If this is your goal getting in the door should be priority. Once you are in you can move from one agency to another like I have. Good Luck to you, let me know how things go for you.
