Assuming you pass the initial polygraph test (very high failure rate), you can expect the following during the formal BI, which is arguably more difficult than the CIA's:
Full records check and interviews, including:
Education (minimum 4-yr degree is required to work at the Bureau)
Financial - full credit and banking records
Medical
Legal/Criminal - anything on your record, including any drug use or trouble, even minor traffic violations
Associations (groups, friends, organizations, etc.), including any overseas contacts
Employment history / problems
Expect in-depth interviews of:
Family (immediate)
Friends (local, high school, college, work, and more)
Neighbors
Employers and current/former co-workers
Current and former Teachers
The interviews are to get a more complete picture of who you are as a person, and your true character, which isn't always apparent with a records check.
To say the FBI leaves no stone unturned during a prospective employee BI is an understatement; that's why passing the polygraph is so difficult, and why the Bureau won't commit to a BI unless the prospect passes. Even then, not everyone gets through the BI process.
What problems do investigators face when evidence is not thoroughly collected?
They cannot retry! Evidence is sometimes wrong!
Added: If evidence is not completely, properly and thoroughly collected or processed, and documented it is subject to being challenged by the defense which might throw its reliability into question.

Can you be a FBI agent with bipolar disorder?
Yes, individuals with bipolar disorder can become FBI agents, but they must meet specific medical and psychological criteria. The FBI conducts thorough background checks and medical evaluations to ensure candidates can manage their condition and perform their duties effectively. If the disorder is well-managed and does not interfere with job performance, it may not disqualify someone from serving as an agent. Each case is assessed individually, focusing on the applicant's overall stability and ability to handle the demands of the role.
Can the FBI block someone from using the internet?
Yes. Either they prevent internet access from a certain house/apartment completely, or threaten a person with jail sentences if they use computers.
What requirements allow a crime to fall under the jurisdiction of the FBI?
If a crime is a federal crime, or if it is a state crime but crosses state lines it falls into the jurisdiction of the FBI. Also at certain times they can get jurisdiction on a crime that doesn't fall into those two categories if some higher authority gives the case to them.
Do you take a survery first or go through training first when applying for an FBI agent?
Before applying to be an FBI agent, you research what qualifications are necessary and if you meet those requirements, you complete an application form at the local FBI office. If you are accepted as a candidate, then you are given a training program. If the "survey" that you are referring to is an application to determine your qualifications, then you would most certainly be "taking the survey" first. The FBI will not be training anyone who doesn't meet their qualifications.
In what year did the FBI begin as the Bureau of Investigation?
The FBI originated from a force of Special Agents created in 1908 by Attorney General Charles Bonaparte during the Presidency of Theodore Roosevelt.
In 1908, Bonaparte applied that Progressive philosophy to the Department of Justice by creating a corps of Special Agents. It had neither a name nor an officially designated leader other than the Attorney General. Yet, these former detectives and Secret Service men were the forerunners of the FBI.
By 1907, the Department of Justice most frequently called upon Secret Service "operatives" to conduct investigations. These men were well-trained, dedicated -- and expensive. Moreover, they reported not to the Attorney General, but to the Chief of the Secret Service.
On July 26, 1908, Bonaparte ordered them to report to Chief Examiner Stanley W. Finch. This action is celebrated as the beginning of the FBI.
