I was offered a CJO with a 2.9 GPA from a small private school. I took a full semester off to attend military training and still finished in 4yrs, thus my GPA suffered a little while I took 20 credit semesters to finish "on time" and not go further into debt. Again I think they look at the big picture. If you can justify it then it's probably not going to be an issue.

Right on, good job Paok.

What the lowest you've seen, non-mil, and no masters. Just a regular civilian with a 4 year.

Bottom line: don't talk about your employer in a negative light on social media.

Yep, Oberon is right on this.

With that said, it's more common for smaller departments, who do their own direct hiring, to search social-media in order to gather information on their applicants. I have a family member that directs a department which falls into this category, and this person uses social-media searches on each applicant. AND, those searches have resulted in persons not being chosen to interview as well as persons not being hired....

The lowest I've seen come through our office had a GPA of 2.8. This gentleman had a ton of other stuff that enhanced his application.
