Do you think that you have to be a football star, a national basketball player, a sharp shooter or a person who could conduct an intense interrogation to become one of the agents like we always watch on TV? You're wrong.
So, what does it really takes to become one of them? Well, there's a chance that a common people would become an FBI agent!
1. Accounting
If you're an accountant, you might not think of yourself to be fit to apply as an FBI agent - but the Bureau begs to differ. In fact, if you're a certified CPA with a bachelor's degree, and at least three years of accounting experience or the corporate equivalent, the FBI would be very interested in talking to you. Hmm...I would say that it could be quite an interesting career change, wouldn't it?
2. Computer Science/Information Technology
Brace yourself computer and engineering geeks! If you'd like to inject a little intrigue and excitement into your computer career, you might consider working for the FBI. Given that many investigations have now shifted into the digital world, it's no surprise that the FBI is looking for computer experts. Investigators regularly comb through massive amounts of digital data in order to find the clue that might solve a seemingly unsolvable crime or prevent a terrorist attack. The FBI is looking for candidates with a bachelor's degree in computer science or electrical engineering, or any bachelor's degree accompanied with a Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) certification or Internetworking Expert (CCIE) certification.
3. Language
Language freaks....WAKE UP! Based on current Bureau needs, fluency in certain languages is absolutely critical. With a four-year bachelor's degree in any discipline - plus knowledge of Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, Hebrew, Hindi, as well as many more languages, you can qualify for this FBI enrollment path, assuming you can pass a high-competency test. So if you're fluent, you have a chance to put those skills to good use. And you thought those language classes your mother or your employer made you take weren't worth anything. Think again!
4. Law
Another way into the FBI is by becoming a lawyer. You must qualify by earning a JD from an accredited law school. Prior to law school, people generally earn an undergraduate degree in a discipline such as English, political science, or criminal justice.
5. Diversified
The FBI's fifth and final enrollment program could actually be called "other"; because it covers every other discipline that the Bureau deems valuable. Are you a psychologist, detective, scientist, or mathematician? This may be your ticket to becoming a Special Agent.
If you're interested in this program, you'll need an undergraduate degree such as a BA or BS, plus three years of full-time work experience in your area of expertise. Or for those with an advanced degree, you need two years of work experience.
