How to Download How To Get A Job In Intelligence RTF
Getting a job in intelligence is both easier and more difficult than it was back in 2009 when I wrote the first edition of How to Get a Job in Intelligence. It is harder because of the budget constraints within the US National Security Community. The winding down of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the hiring restrictions brought about by sequestration have made it much more difficult to get a job as an analyst in traditional intelligence agencies such as the CIA. That said, this trend has been offset by the growth of intelligence positions within the business community. While they are often difficult to identify (businesses rarely call their intelligence positions by that name), the improving economy and the need for people who can analyze information that is critical to success or failure of a company but is about something that is outside that company’s control has only grown over the last six years. This book is designed to provide both a high level overview as well as detailed guidance (with lots and lots of hyperlinks!) that should prove useful to both the entry-level and experienced job hunter. We cover the entire spectrum of intelligence organizations and functions including not only national security positions (such as those with the CIA or FBI) but also within businesses, law enforcement agencies and even internationally. Getting a job in intelligence has never been easy. The requirements, regardless of the area in which you are interested, are always challenging. With this new edition of How To Get a Job in Intelligence, we aim to improve your chances of not only landing a position but landing the right position with an organization that best fits your skills and interests.
