CIA's primary mission is to collect, analyze, evaluate, and disseminate foreign intelligence to assist the President and senior US government policymakers in making decisions relating to national security. Those politicans making shitty decisions despite that information is a problem voters are supposed to fix. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
What is the CIA's "Mission Statement" and what excatly is "Our Nations Interests"? Politicians are importing potential terrorists by the thousands, the FBI is failing time and time again to track and investigate terrorists. The former Secretary of State failed to safeguard this nations secrets as well as CIA secrets. Perhaps the CIA needs to turn some attention to the real threat against this nation which is US politicians. CIA's primary mission is to collect, analyze, evaluate, and disseminate foreign intelligence to assist the President and senior US government policymakers in making decisions relating to national security. Those politicans making shitty decisions despite that information is a problem voters are supposed to fix. Intelligence isn't their only mission. They also have a Operational branch, which SAD falls under. I know you already knew that, but I'm just clarifying. |

Can I apply for something less "operator"? They literally employ every single occupational specialty that any type of company would hire. Do they employ machinists?

Fill me in. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Quoted:
A friend from my old unit is currently in their hiring process. I just did his reference interview a few weeks ago. It's pretty serious when I felt like I needed my lawyer during an interview for another guy
He speaks English, Spanish and Portuguese. He's got the Ranger and Sapper tabs. He deployed with 7th Group, 10th Mountain and 173rd. He's B4 qualified. And he's got a BS in Botany or Horticulture, IIRC 
When he asked if he could list me as a reference he told me that he didn't think he was qualified for the position but applied anyway. My assumption is that the CIA uses SAD as a recruitment tool to put asses in office jobs after they wash out of cool guy school, just like how RASP is a farm-team for the 82nd. I'm sure they only take a very select few of the true carnivores for the sexy jobs. Thats not how any of this works. Fill me in. They receive over 100,000 Applications a year for each of the cool jobs. They are therefore general mega picky. Paramilitary guys are almost to the man exclusively from the tops of their respective military organizations and handle paramilitary type tasks for the CIA. Its a small organization. Super small. And its not the 80's or 90's, there are alot of cool dudes running around around with alot of time in the hot seat. The paramilitary officer thing in GearQueer magazine is to garner interest in applying for the agency. Engineers, IT, logistics, business, etc. They hire for endless different jobs and positions. the NCS is relatively small in comparison to the rest of the organization. The Army doesn't recruit people by making videos of pogues doing paperwork. The make videos of SF dudes shooting carls and jumping out of planes. Agency and the FBI do the same thing. Advertise the sexy, people find and apply for the things they're qualified for. |

It's probably because they can't recruit directly like they used to - too many bridges burned and not enough people want to work for them. They now have to aggressively go out to recruit people, and that includes advertising. LOL, each of the four cool guys jobs take on over 100,000 applications a year. They're doing fine. |

I have a family member was in that unit from desert storm era through Iraq. He told me, probably 10 years ago now, they used to recruit people out of ads in The Economist magazine, and other similar publications.

His father and mother were both in the agency since before the cuban missile crisis. They took him right out of college and trained him from the ground up. His father had been recruited straight out of college from an ivy league school They require a whole lot more than someone who knows how to clear rooms and has combat experience. High I.Q. Physically fit. That sort of thing. Or someone out of the military who is still relatively young in their career (e.g., Johnny Spann). They leave, or at least used to, the heavy lifting to actual military units they are able to utilize such as ST6, e.g., the bin laden raid. They hire a lot of contractors out of the military who aren't necessarily "employees" of the agency. For instance the dude who shot the pakistani on the motorcycle with his glock 19. |
