Yeah your right, the polygraph is just a machine they use to measure reactions you have no real control over. As long as I know im right and that I have nothing to hide, I shouldn't have nothing to worry about. I can't let something like this machine get me down because I know myself more than any machine will ever know me. I just hope the background investigators can see past this machines "predictions" and see the real person that I am; because I feel that I am a good candidate for this position.

Yes you DO!  You can tell the truth, know you are telling the truth, and STILL FAIL!  You ALSO have to NOT volunteer ANY information, or make ANY admissions, no matter HOW INSIGNIFICANT you think it is, IF it concerns a RELEVANT question.

IOW, you have to NOT nibble at the BAIT they use to lure you in during their FISHING EXPEDITION!  

Example, "you're have trouble with this question.  Anything bothering you?  Must be something.  I want to help you get this job!  Let's get everything off your chest so you can clear your mind and do better on that question (hahaha!)!  Okay now Mr. Applicant.  What could be troubling you? (what little tidbits can you give me to hang you with?  Shocked)  Blah! Blah! Blah!"

Exactly! as long as I don't bring up little details into the equation; I should be alright. Because like I said "I have nothing to hide"
For example in the first posting I read that he mentioned something about hanging out with the local gang; but what he ment was his neighborhood friends. The examiner thought completely different and started asking him questions about his gang affiliations!!! This to me seems ridiculous but I guess its those little words that they try to stick to in order to try and get you to confess to something that doesnt even exist.

That line of questioning seems atypical (and rather voyeuristic) for FBI pre-employment polygraph screening. I would be interested to hear from any other FBI applicants if they have been asked similar questions.


The individual interrogating me at the FBI also tried to steer some of the questioning to perverse sexuality.

Sheesh-

I had a really similar experience with the FBI polygrapher. I wonder if the FBI guys are really similar in their interviewing techniques or if you and I may have had the same interviewer.  You weren't interviewed by a Mr. Anderson were you?
