FBI Background questionnaire?

[squiddoc]

Question regarding the FBI hiring process and backgrounds.  Outside of the SF-86 form, does anyone know what other pre-investigative or pre-poly questions they will ask concerning an applicant's background?  Just trying to get a leg up in the process and determine if I have a chance of getting hired. 

I have issues in my background that have caused me struggle in the past with a local PD.  I disclosed information that I probably shouldn't have after researching the topic.  No police involvement, no arrests or detentions, no documentation what so ever.  Just some dumb stuff I did when I was younger. Nothing that warrants an automatic DQ from the FBI.

Also, is there a way for agencies to find out if you applied with other agencies in the past besides your own admittance.  More importantly, is there a way they can find out that you have been DQ'd in the past.  Thank you all for your advice.

In my case, even a voluntary disclosure of marijuana usage was enough to wash me out of the Bureau application process.
