Entrevista
Applied online through their website and got a response by email to submit a pre-interview screening via HireVue. There were a set of 12 questions that you record yourself answering. I heard back within a week to schedule an in-person interview. The interview questions for both pre-interview and in-person were very standard. I was offered the position the following day. Because of the clearance level I was informed it would take 12-18 months.

Entrevista
I applied online, was contacted probably within a week by phone. Asked brief questions, and then heard an in-person interview would be scheduled about a week later. Had the in-person at agency's HQ. Took 3 hours for them to offer me the position.
If you're interviewing for a position with their DEA contract, make sure to be completely transparent as soon as they contact you. Anything over marijuana use is considered an auto-disqualification for even a public trust security clearance, even if it was sparing and experimental. You don't want to accept the offer only to have it rescinded once you answer questions about prior drug use honestly. I wish that drug use would have been brought up from the very first point of contact - would have saved a lot of time on everyone's part.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us feedback. We plan on reviewing our process to determine how we might appropriately share additional information on the criteria the Government uses to determine Security Access suitability, and at what stage in the process this would make the most sense.
