Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration

Transportation Security Officer

June 2019 • Salt Lake City, UT

What I liked

I have liked the environment, the learning about our nation's security, and the ways we keep people safe in their transportation.

What I wish was different

Can take some time to get fully certified.

Advice

This is a great job for anyone looking to work for the Federal Government, and would like descent pay starting out. They don't work with your college schedule so you will have to work your college schedule around your working hours. If you are just starting out and shift bid time is coming up, your shift may get changed and you may have to work according to that schedule, which can interfere with your school schedule. Benefits are great so if you save up annual leave you can always try and use that on select school days if approved and available.
