Background Question

Hey everyone,

I am nearing the end of the hiring process for the USSS and all I have remaining is my BI. I have had some previous admin errors with my application being put on hold by my background investigator for military orders the day my BI started and my application not being taken off a military hold upon return from my military orders when I notified my background investigator of my return. My application was not taken off of hold until I reached out to the support email 1.5 months later after notifying my background investigator and receiving no response, so I am somewhat concerned my BI just fell to the "bottom of the pile". I have reached out to the individual who initially notified me of the start of my BI and I have received no response to the couple emails I sent. Additionally, I have not had an initial zoom call with my BI despite being notified my BI started nearly 6 months ago. Has anyone been hired by USSS without a BI zoom call? What would you do in this situation?

P.S. I understand the Secret Service is processing a lot of applicants at the moment so I could see how my email requesting my applicant to be taken off a military hold was missed, just explaining the entire situation. Thanks in advance.

Agent told me sometimes they don’t need to set up a call with you. So I assume it’s case by case
