Any Federal HR Specialists out there? (DHS specifically?)

I have a question about reinstatement in the Federal service:

Say someone was a Federal employee only very briefly, and they found that the particular position to which they had been hired was simply not for them. Now, supposing that person was still interested in government service, perhaps they even have in mind a different job within the same department, more suited towards their abilities and interests. What is their eligibility vis-a-vis noncompetitive reinstatement? Does reinstatement refer specifically to the position from which they resigned, or Federal Service in general? How would such a person go about applying for noncompetitive appointment?

    In my experience, you must have completed at least three years before qualifying for a non-competitive reinstatement.
