Federal Bureau of Investigation
The mission of the FBI is to protect the American people and uphold the Constitution of the United States. Special Agents enforce more than 300 federal statutes and conduct criminal and national security investigations. They seek out cyberthieves, infiltrate organized crime rings and oversee terrorism investigations, often training local, state and foreign counterparts on the latest technologies in intelligence gathering and data analysis.
We need Special Agents with a range of education, backgrounds and skills in order to get ahead of threats. For example, Special Agents with foreign language skills may be asked to interview a victim of human trafficking; those with computer skills may be asked to decipher malicious computer code; those with accounting skills may need to uncover hidden assets; and those with communication and collaboration skills may lead a joint agency investigation. The FBI provides an opportunity for leaders in every community to join our workforce and contribute in a meaningful way.
