question.  
 
do you get health insurance as soon as you start work?

 
You can buy it, but you don't just get it. PTO pays for part (probably 2/3), you pay for part.
 
The insurance companies trip all over each other during the open season fairs trying to get this business. Writing policies with little or no dental or vision to all the new young kids is $$ in the bank. I usually make a walk-thru to see if they are giving away any free crap that i like.

Just out of curiosity... Is there a standard amount of time before an examiner becomes eligible to apply for a supervisory position? How competitive is the selection process for these positions?

I'm a comp. Eng. and had two interviews. One in a jab fair and one over the phone. I received an email requesting forms SF-85 and OF-306 to be filled out. What step is this in the hiring process?? When do they tell you if u got the job or not.
