squirrel 0 #2 July 3, 2007 Really depends on what entity is doing the background check. The DOJ does it for contractors and realtors, and with me it took 5 weeks. My wife on the other hand had to go through a "check by name" since her fingerprints would not register on the livescan...it would score her between 0 and 10 out of 100! Her check took 3 months. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

normiss 889 #4 July 3, 2007 meaning I could be FORCED to sit here and surf for months to come?!?!?!? wow...the money I'm being paid to do nothing. Since the airport authority is a state run organization, I would assume the state is doing the check.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squirrel 0 #6 July 3, 2007 Quote Since the airport authority is a state run organization, I would assume the state is doing the check.... well, the California State Licensing Board, and the Board of Cal Realitors required a FBI and DOJ check... I think the TSA would be the same? ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisamariewillbe 1 #9 July 3, 2007 It took them awhile, 5 or 6 weeks, EVERYONE you listed on your application may get up to two calls. Also they verify everything on the app which isnt like most employers. Whats worse is when you finally get through the whole process and then you start and they lay off the 25 newest employees within a week of starting.Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydiver51 0 #13 July 3, 2007 TSA is a federal job and will be checked by federal agencies. I started to apply for one of those jubs, but since i'm drawing money for PTSD, I thought maybe not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rookie120 0 #15 July 3, 2007 I dont know who exactly did my background checks but they were all done in less than 10 days. I think the TSA did them along with the FBI check.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turtlespeed 226 #16 July 3, 2007 Depends on if its the DHS doing the checks or not.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marcandalysse 0 #17 July 3, 2007 Hey man, one of those systems you are talking about is the one that I am overhauling....the State of Florida Dept of Law Enforcement Fingerprint and criminal history databases. It ties into the FBI NCIC database and other systems too. Usually they check the state files, then send it along to Feds. Our team had to get background checks and it took a month to pass the PRELIMINARY check...

marcandalysse 0 #21 July 3, 2007 yeah, the latest motorola stuff... we just saw Oceans Thirteen, and they had an example of automated fingerprint matching screens, minutia and all....minutia are focal points on the print that get scanned and searched....the more points that match the better the identification 'HIT'. each fingerprint file has ten lines for amputations....how much of each finger is missing from the scanthere's another table for Scars Marks and Tattoos, pages and pages of descriptions of all the types and places they can be.....needs to be updated for Piercings though (serious!) which weren't so common when the codes were last written. yeah, its fascinating being in the inside of the machine!
