I took a polygraph recently with an agency where I failed one last year. I failed last year due to remember something about a drug question while hooked up to the machine which caused a reaction of course. This year I made sure to mention that specific detail along with anything else I could think of. After the polygraph she came into the room and said 'same thing as last year, what's going on?' I explained to her that I had a 100% clear conscience and that I told her the 2 things I was most nervous about regarding the drug question.

She said on 2 seperate occasions that she would put in her report that she thinks I would make a great candidate and she would put down what I was nervous about. She said ultimately it's up to the hiring agency and not her. She mentioned 1 more time that she would put that I would be a good candidate and said good luck. She never explicity said you passed or you failed. Did I pass do you think?

Results came back inconclusive which equates to a fail according to the agency. Am I hurting my future job chances by having my 3rd polygraph not be a passing one?

Isn't it unusual for an agency to offer an applicant so many chances with the polygraph?
