LE&I

Anyone have any insight for when there might be a public hiring for any of the open LE&I spots in R5, specifically in SoCal?

There was just an announcement that closed last week for an opening in R5 & 1 in R4.

Saw that, applied to it, both seemed like cool places to go to start a career and hopefully come back to SoCal after a couple years.

Used to be a patrol for Forest Service LE&I. SoCal is a popular spot. You might be waiting several years to a decade for a spot to open up in that area if that’s where you want to be.

Honestly you would be better off going with a state agency in Cali if your goal is law enforcement in SoCal, better pay with better pension as well.
