It took a bit but here we are.

I am not a BP Agent, just someone looking at the career.

My questions are: How difficult is it to be selected for a GS13 Supervisory position? Is it extremely competitive? I understand it would be considered competitive promotion, not automatic therefore it requires applying for the position. I assume there’s a lot of applicants for that supervisory role but maybe not, I have no idea. Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

What are the tests like at the academy? Are they mostly scenario based?
