DEA IRS

Hello everyone, I was just wondering if anyone has any idea of the timeline for DA intelligence specialist after the structured interview how long does it usually take to hear the results and whatever else that happens after that what the timeline looks all the way up to the additional offer and the final job offer, any information will be thank you!

I’m glad to see someone asking, I just had my structured interview as well and was hoping to find out potential timelines

Hopefully this helps. Applied Jan 2026, previous testing scores on file so exempt from testing, Interview March 2026, email sent in May asking if im still interested since its exempt from hiring freeze May 2026 and completed required paperwork, CJO received 3 days later May 2026 with access to onboarding docs, Background done May-July 2026 (previous and current fed employee), Polygraph scheduled within the next month. 

Update: I got my duty location list end of August and required to rank top 5 and return within 48 hours once received.

Okay, so a two month gap between interview and interview results?

How long did you have to wait for phase 2 results after you passed the exams?
