<p>hi all
I was thinking about this:
is an engineering degree a good idea if you want to work for the CIA as an officer overseas??
what kind of degrees do people take to work in this field??</p>

<p>best;</p>

<p>Those positions are usually for humanities, history, and poly sci majors with language experience. Most of the time the technical positions are posted up in the States. Analysts take engineering degrees also which could put you overseas. </p>

<p>Just browse around the website to find out more about the opportunities. I doubt anyone will chime in here to say, Hey I can help you, I work at the CIA. </p>

<p>If your stats are competitive enough, then apply for an internship or co-op. If you get in, then you can ask around about various options you can TRY to pursue.</p>

<p>Why wanna work for CIA?..I always have the impressions that they will recruit you and not the other way around? maybe…</p>

<p>Hate to say it, but as a non-citizen you chances are very close to 0.</p>

I was gonna say this! There might be a few positions if he becomes a citizen first, but even that is a long shot.</p>

They have a website. They only actively recruit “high-value” candidates. If you are a member of SFOD-D (“Delta Force”), they will recruit you. If you are a member of Delta Tau Alpha, check the website, they’ll contact you if they are interested.</p>
