Last year, i applied for a position with the USSS Uniformed Division. I passed the written test, security interview and the physical. When I went for my polygraph, I wasn't very worried about it. However, things soon turned for the worse. The polygrapher told me that i was being deceptive on the drug question. That was the one question that i KNEW id PASS since i had never even touched a drug, let alone actually do a drug. He sat there for an hour and tried to get me to just tell him what i did. I didnt know what to say. I just kept telling him that i was being 100% honest about it and that i had never done anything with drugs. Well, he refused to run the testing again and said that the results would be sent to HQ but that once they saw the test they'd prolly not keep me going ahead in the process...i was SOOO furious about the whole process and lost all faith i had in the polygraph test. NOW, I am scheduled to fly out to L.A in May to test for the LAPD. Should i really even bother flying all the way across the country to just be called a liar again? is there any way i could pass the drug question since i failed it once already, even though i was telling the truth before? Im so frustrated about the whole thing so if any of you have any advice or suggestions please let me know..thanks
