Further Evaluation of Qualified Candidates: Senior Leader Leadership Skills Assessment (SL LSA)
All candidates considered for an interview will be invited to complete the Senior Leader Leadership Skills Assessment (SL LSA). The assessment consists of the following components:

1. Leadership Skills Assessment (LSA)

The SL LSA standardizes the requirements and application process for all candidates, improves transparency and feedback about the selection process. The program is based on the FBI Leadership Competency Model.
The LSA is a standardized assessment which evaluates and measure leadership behavioral abilities and skills, ensuring leaders in all job categories meet the FBI's standards of proficiency in management and leadership. The LSA takes place via the telephone and simulates a "day-in-the-life" of a front-line leader or senior leader, with a candidate assuming a management role during the evaluation. Candidates will be presented with scenarios that require them, as the manager, to make crucial leadership decisions. Candidate will be scored on how they handle these situations and embody the FBI's Leadership Competencies. A passing LSA score allows you to continue towards becoming ready to apply to leadership positions in the FBI.
There are no specific study guides for the LSA and the behaviors assessed are not something that one can memorize. The LSA scenarios were designed to account for the various background of candidates while assessing the management or leadership competencies within a familiar environment. In the SL LSA, candidates are assessed based on how they demonstrated the 12 of the 15 FBI Leadership Competencies during all of the scenarios. The best approach to take the SL LSA is to use study time wisely, relax, and be oneself during the interactions.
