Indianapolis - Despite a slumping economy and constant news of layoffs, the FBI is desperate to hire thousands of new employees.They have been called "G-men" and "The Feds" and their blue shield is almost instantly recognized, but what goes on behind the doors of the Federal Bureau of Investigation is often very much misunderstood.



"Most people think of the FBI special agents as lawyers and accountants," said FBI special agent Wendy Osbourne.
While thousand of companies and government agencies are cutting back staff, the FBI is hiring - and not just a few people, but thousands. This year, the bureau is hoping to add almost a thousand new special agents.
"I can tell you we start with a huge pool and to get to the FBI academy, very few make it," said Osbourne.
They're also looking to increase their professional staff by more than 2,000 employees.
"This is not a job where you apply today and you will be with us tomorrow. This will take about a year to get through our application process," Osbourne said.
Getting into the FBI Academy is no simple task and the requirements, even though they've relaxed in recent years, is still very complex. Applicants must be U.S. citizens and between the ages of 23-37 - and honest.
"The rigorous test we put you through, both the academic test, the panel interview, the background investigation, the polygraph, the physical fitness and medical exam," Osbourne said.
However, if you are not in your twenties or late thirties and in great shape - and don't really like guns, there are still positions for you.
"That can be anything from Spanish to Russian to Arabic or any of the Middle Eastern languages and has a four-year college degree, we are looking for 'em," said Osbourne.
But if leaving your hometown is unthinkable, you'll need to look elsewhere.
"All FBI agents are required to relocate, so if you are coming from Indiana, you don't get to come back to Indiana, initially," Osbourne said.

I would, from the looks of things they do not do much of anything. You'd probably just have to cruise around in a jeep and yap to other agents on a radio all day/night. I'd apply if I was there.

You'd think liking mexicans would be more of a disqualifying attribute.



They are claiming that anyone with even a misdemeanor is disqualified from applying, which SHOULD disqualify 90% of black males, but I'm guessing there's gonna be a hoard of new black FBI agents somehow. Just like 1/3 of the Homeland Security personnel are blacks with criminal records. Obama isn't even a citizen of the United States.

Pierce predicted this in the Turner Diaries.

I went to a job fair recently, and about 1/2 of the organizations hiring were somehow government related. You name the government department, and they were there:

FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, Anchorage Alaska Police department (WTF?), Secret Service, FEMA... on and on and on.

It was pathetic, really. Is America so fucked now that the only jobs out there are for people to just watch what others are doing? What happened to American industry? America got to be boss because it was number one in gross national product, and that, my friends directly translates into military might.
