PUBLIC NOTICE- DEA Criminal Investigators

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting: It's a public notice for DEA Criminal Investigator GL-1811-7/9/11 positions. It includes duties, applicant availability, phases, location availability, Spanish language skill, basic agent training, etc. Also requirements: conditions of employment (citizenship, clearance, mobility agreement, medical, polygraph, selective service, age, E-Verify, trial period, driver's license, random drug testing, 16-week BAT). Qualifications: details for GL-07, GL-09 levels (education/experience substitution). Also maybe skills: Spanish language skill desirable. We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe summary of mission). Responsibilities (duties). Requirements (conditions of employment). Qualifications (education/experience). Skills (Spanish language). Benefits? Not mentioned. Pay? Not mentioned. Schedule? Not mentioned. So we omit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not include duplicated lines. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to format with

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to ensure we don't include headings for sections with no content. Let's extract content. First, "About the role": The posting includes a paragraph: "At the DEA, our people are agents for change. A unique mission requires special talent. As a DEA Special Agent, you will work as part of an elite criminal investigative team that transforms the power of your talent into action. That action makes a difference for the security and well-being of our nation and the world every day." Also maybe the summary line: "THIS IS NOT AN OPEN JOB ANNOUNCEMENT** This is a public notice for Drug Enforcement Administration Criminal Investigator GL-1811-7/9/11 positions open to U.S. Citizens. A job announcement will be posted on USAJobs on July 20th and October 19th, 2026." That's meta but maybe part of About the role? It's more about the notice. Could include as prose. We'll include About the role with that paragraph. Responsibilities: The duties list: Conducts complex criminal investigations targeting narcotics and drug related activities; Prepares comprehensive and succinct criminal investigative reports and prepares and delivers briefings for senior personnel and other Federal, state, and local agencies; Identifies and apprehends drug traffickers and arresting individuals engaged in criminal drug activities; Gathers and analyzes evidence through investigative leads, seizures, arrests, execution of search warrants, and a variety of other means; Testifies on behalf of the Federal government in court or before grand juries. Additional duties may be assigned based upon an individual's unique knowledge, skills, and/or experience. We'll put each as

• . Requirements: Conditions of employment list: U.S. Citizenship Required; Must be able to obtain and maintain a Top-Secret security clearance; Each applicant will be reviewed individually to agency suitability policy; Upon completion of this review, the DEA will decide, if any additional clearance will be required; Must sign a mobility agreement that confirms your understanding and agreement to accept relocation to any location depending on the needs of the DEA; This position requires the completion of a pre-employment medical clearance and annual medical examination; A full-scope pre-employment polygraph is required; 1811 Applicants who have previously completed and passed a polygraph examination with their current or former agency, may seek reciprocity with the DEA during the hiring process; Selective Service: Males born after 12/31/59 must be registered or exempt from Selective Service; Applicant must be at least 21 years of age and not older than 36 at the time of application, unless you are a preference eligible veteran or a current, or previously served in a Federal civilian law enforcement retirement covered position; Successfully pass the E-Verify employment verification check; Selectee will be required to serve a 1-year or 2-year trial period, as appropriate, during which we will evaluate your fitness and whether your continued employment advances the public interest; This position requires that the incumbent must possess and maintain a valid state driver's license; Incumbent is subject to random drug testing; Individuals are required to successfully complete a 16-week basic agent training (BAT) course held at the DEA Training Academy in Quantico, Virginia. Also location availability: The agency is currently prioritizing the filling of positions in border locations, and location availability is limited. While every effort will be made to accommodate preferences, location assignments will ultimately be determined based on the needs of the agency. Spanish Language Skill: Applicants who possess proficiency in the Spanish language (speaking, reading, and writing) are strongly encouraged to apply. Spanish language skills are highly desirable in support of DEA's mission to disrupt and dismantle transnational criminal organizations, particularly in investigations involving Latin America, the Southern Border, and international partnerships. Spanish language proficiency may be assessed during the hiring process. Applicants who indicate proficiency may be required to complete a language assessment. Basic Agent Training: Applicants who have not completed previous federal law enforcement training through another federal law enforcement agency must attend and complete a 16-week residential training program. Special Agent Transition Program: Current or former 1811 applicants who have successfully completed a Federal Criminal Investigation training program through another federal law enforcement agency may qualify for a 3-week Special Agent Transition Program (FLETC/CITP Transcripts must be attached). Applicant Availability: There are four (4) evaluation phases used to determine the applicants who are Best Qualified for the position. Applicants MUST be available to complete all phases of the Special Agent applicant process. Failure to successfully complete/pass any of the screening processes will result in the applicant being disqualified and removed from consideration. Phase 1: Physical Task Assessment (PTA) ... etc. This could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section like "Selection Process". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put the phases under Requirements as part of eligibility/process. Or we could incorporate into Requirements as a list. Qualifications: The detailed qualification requirements for GL-07 and GL-09 levels, including education substitution, SAA, etc. We'll need to preserve all that info. It's lengthy. We'll put as
  • for each bullet? Might be long but okay. Skills: Spanish language skill (maybe also other skills like teamwork, problem solving etc from phases). But we can put Spanish language skill as Skills. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat same info. Let's craft HTML. We'll start with

    Requirements

    with conditions (citizenship, clearance, suitability, mobility agreement, medical, polygraph, reciprocity, selective service, age, E-Verify, trial period, driver's license, random drug testing, 16-week BAT, location availability, Spanish language skill? Actually Spanish language skill is more a skill, but could be in Requirements as desirable. We'll put Spanish language skill under Skills. Also include applicant availability phases as list. We need to ensure we don't miss any substantive info. Let's list all substantive items: - Public notice for DEA Criminal Investigator GL-1811-7/9/11 positions open to U.S. Citizens. Job announcement will be posted on USAJobs on July 20th and October 19th, 2026. (maybe include in About the role) - Mission statement paragraph. - Duties list (5 items + additional duties may be assigned). - Applicant MUST be available to complete all phases. - Phase 1: Physical Task Assessment (PTA) description, encourage to view video. - Phase 2: Proctored Testing: Writing Assessment at proctored center, over 600 locations, measures Attention to Detail, Memory, Teamwork, Problem Solving, Decision Making. - Phase 3: Basic Qualification Review: resume review, may exclude if self-ratings higher than supported, errors/omissions may impact eligibility, preview assessment questions link. - Phase 4: Structured Interview: evaluate Teamwork, Interpersonal Skills, Problem Solving, Oral Communication, Decision Making/Judgement, Self-Management, Flexibility. - Current or former 1811 applicants who have completed Federal Criminal Investigation training via another agency may be considered for abbreviated hiring process. - Location Availability: agency prioritizing border locations, limited availability, preferences considered but assignments based on agency needs. - Spanish Language Skill: proficiency strongly encouraged, desirable for mission, may be assessed, may require language assessment. - Basic Agent Training: applicants without prior federal law enforcement training must attend 16-week residential training. - Special Agent Transition Program: current/former 1811 applicants with prior federal criminal investigation training may qualify for 3-week program (FLETC/CITP transcripts must be attached). - Conditions of employment: list as earlier. - Qualifications: detailed for GL-07 and GL-09. We need to ensure we include all. Now, we need to decide where to put each. About the role: include notice and mission paragraph. Responsibilities: duties list. Requirements: include conditions of employment, applicant availability phases, location availability, basic agent training, special agent transition program? Those are more about process/training. Could be under Requirements as they are requirements for employment. We'll include them. Qualifications: education/experience requirements. Skills: Spanish language skill. We must not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now, we need to avoid duplication: e.g., Spanish language skill appears both in Requirements (maybe) and Skills; we will only put in Skills. Also, Basic Agent Training appears in Requirements (as condition) and also maybe in Qualifications? No. Now, we need to format lists. Let's craft. We'll need to escape any HTML special characters? Not needed. We'll produce:
