Initial employment with DIA is subject to:
All statements and claims made in employment applications and security forms are subject to investigative verification. Adverse information developed or intentional/unintentional misstatement/withholding of significant adverse information during personnel and clearance processing may preclude employment.
Employment may be denied as a result of information of which the applicant is genuinely unaware or, perhaps, by an assessment that an applicant does not meet the agency's overall employment criteria. A negative employment determination by the agency is final, and normally no specific reasons regarding non-selection will be made. Employment with DIA is not a right upon which an applicant can insist. Offers of employment are made ONLY by the Civilian Operations, DIA's civilian personnel office.
Employees must participate in the DoD Direct Deposit/Electronic Fund Transfer of Pay (DD/EFT) Program. This payment method deposits net pay directly into the employee's account of choice at his/her designated financial institution. DD/EFT enrollment is required within the first 5 days of employment for all new DoD employees, including those previously employed by DoD.
Employment with DIA is restricted to an appointment in the Excepted Service under 10 U.S.C. 1601, 1606, or 1607. Federal employees currently serving in the Competitive Service will voluntarily leave the Competitive Service by accepting employment with DIA.
