Disqualifiers

Before you apply, go over the below list to make sure that you are not automatically disqualified from applying.  You will be disqualified if:
 
  • You have been convicted of a felony (well, duh)
  • You used illegal drugs (this is talking about constant use, and not a dorm party 10 years ago)
  • You have defaulted on a student loan (if you can't pay back the government, what makes you think they'll give you a job.
  • You have failed an FBI-administered urinalysis drug test (Failing this means your too stupid to join.  Who would be doing drugs before a piss test?)
     
  • You have failed to register with the Selective Service System (this is not the time or place for making a political stance)
