I think you have to continue to apply for every agency in the federal government. Also, if you have any military or reservist experience, make sure they know it. It's not easy to break into some positions, as you already know, and unfortunately, you have to keep trying. Also, apply for positions that may be within certain office, that may not be directly for polygraph analyst and once you are in that position, apply for the analyst position. Once you are inside the federal government system it's a little easier. Below is a recent job announcement. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

Same as anyone else; you apply have the proper and expected credentials and they will hire you if they think your the best person for the job. You probably could apply to some sort of school for FBI work and get your foot in the door as to who would be a better inside contact to know.
