Thank you for the info!!! I’m currently in the process of interviewing!!
Thank you for this helpful information
Very informative. Thank you
New subscriber just off of how informative, and too the point this video is. I’m current at 440lbs, with osteoarthritis in my knees. My right knee is in pain daily, so after watching this, it’s clear this job may be to much for me in my current state(as I’m working to lose weight.) thank you so much for making this video.
Appreciate Your info
This would look pretty good on your Resume, that’s for sure plus u can get a Pension

What are the perks flights
Since I have epilepsy ( not too severe ) and am not allowed to join selective service. Does this mean I cannot become a TSO?

You can get a waiver/exemption for it. Though you can be denied. All federal jobs are highly competitive, so they can easily choose someone without any medical problems, unless your medical problem is due to a disability caused by the US military.

I don't recall seeing any age limit listed when I compiled the information for the video. If there is an age limit, then it will be mentioned in the job posting on usajobs.gov I saw TSOs that looked to be in their 50s at least.
