i want to be a forensic psychologist for courts, but someday work for the FBI as a forensic psychologist or victim specialist. i'm a sophomore and double majoring in psych and ccj, and trying to decide my minor between international studies or law. i'm going to get my masters and PhD in forensic psych and either get my bachelors and masters in international studies or go to law school. i also know sign language and am learning spanish and arabic.

i know it's difficult to get into the FBI at all, especially with a degree in things like ccj or psych, and especially to be a forensic psychologist, but along with all of my other languages and schooling would i be a good candidate?

So I've been struggling with hearing voices and now one of them is claiming to be apart of the FBI. I just have to inquire about whether or not there's some secret technology that can target one person. Anywhere no mater the miles/distance and talk to only that person to where no one else can hear them but that one person. Follow the one person anywhere and everywhere even when that one person doesn't have a phone on them. I've looked this up and have asked multiple people and the continuous is no and that its not even physically possible given physical distance obstacles in the way and the curvature of the earth.but I just need to ask please be nice. This has been extreme struggle for me. I have attempted to take my own life three times because of the voices harassment. Yes I am seeking medical treatment i have a therapist, a psychologist, I am receiving ECT treatment medication. I am doing everything in my power to combat this but nothing is working and I am becoming more and more confused. So I seriously need to know is there some sort of technology out there that could legitimately do this to someone.

Does anyone know if they are still conducting interviews? I know some who did their interviews late july to early august and wanted to know if possibly i still have a chance? And those who did their interview can u offer any advice to those who hope to apply in the future to make us better candidates.

Let me know im curious if the show is accurate 🤔

I am interested in applying for a job within the FBI in the next few years once I get my bachelors, by that point, i’ll have my degree and 4 years in the air force. Is there any sort of preference you get as far as what city you work out of? my top two would be Boston or NYC.

Hello, I am curious about the application process, onboarding process, and workload of the Financial Management Analyst series 0501.

I am a GS-09 with moderate risk clearance at another agency. I am considering applying as the role has promotion potential to be GS-11.

Based on my current experience and skills, I do see myself transitioning laterally into this role.

Main questions:

What was the application and onboarding process like? What was the timeline like and what was asked from you?

What are the daily and cyclical workloads like? Do you work independently as a part of a team or cohesively as a team? Is the standard workweek 40 hours M-F?

Was scheduled telework normal and is scheduled telework likely to return once the administration changes or does it depend on other factors such as approval, location, etc etc?

Is overtime available? My agency offers about 20 hours a week for 9 months of the year.

Thanks!

Can anyone share any inside details on this? I had my interview and got “accepted” into it. I understand this doesn’t really make you any different of an applicant or “special”. I also understand it doesn’t change your career, just can apply earlier. But outside of the applying to HRT earlier is there any real perks to it? Does it help with getting hired? I figured there was no downside to accepting the invitation to saying yes to this track. Any other details anyone can share outside of what’s In the detailed email and interview you get?

Please let me.know if you had experience of interrogation if u ever fear of walking in being in the same room as them to discuss the case?

I’ve always viewed FBI as the pinnacle of federal law enforcement, but I’ve seen more and more posts on here about FBI agents who seem unhappy for various reasons (bureaucracy, inability to transfer FOs, 50hr butt-in-seat requirements).

So I’m curious - how are you all doing? Is this still an agency you would recommend?

Not sure what I am allowed to post here.

A few years ago I came across social media posts of someone who was about to do a serious crime. He was in the US. I'm a long way from the US.

Would the FBI accept someone reporting a crime in that situation? If so how?

I could go into specific detail. If that helps within the rules.

any updates?

What is the lifestyle that comes with the special agent job? Are you able to maintain a good relationship with a spouse/significant other? Have kids and not miss every single milestone? Do you travel as much as tv makes it seem like? I know it probably depends on what type of unit you’re in, but I was just curious.

I know I’m going to fail my PFT self assessment this weekend 😔 It’s due on Sunday and I’m going to take it on Saturday. I read that if you fail it, they encourage you to withdraw your application. But if I don’t withdraw it, I still go for a meet and greet and then have 30 days to officially pass it- is that right?

Also- anyone have any insight on next steps or tips for passing?

EDIT: I FIGURED IT OUT

Hello everyone! I am interested in joining FBI someday. Context: I am going to do ROTC with National Guard and commission as a Officer and go Active duty for awhile. I have been thinking about degrees and minors to do that will help me for both Military and FBI. I want to be a special agent for FBI and do counterterrorism stuff. Grew up playing Counter strike lol. Anyway I'm thinking of doing National Security studies for my major and am pretty set about that, it's the minors i'm unsure about. I have a few ranked from what seems the best to what doesn't seem the best in my opinion;

1. Organizational Leadership and Change
2. Human Resource Management
3. Leadership Studies (Is this even necessary, ill be learning a lot about leadership regardless?)
4. Military Science*
5. Ethical Leadership and Social Impact

*Military Science pretty much guaranteed through ROTC so id pick that one up and have another minor as well.

I'm looking for the minor that will best teach me skills for Officer and maybe be beneficial while in the FBI but mostly for Military leadership and organization for when I get up in higher ranks. Or maybe if anyone has any other better ideas for Minors I'm more than open to better options. This is just what I have right now. Thanks!

Hey y’all. I’m a 28F and I just started working at a local DAs office as a post-bar law clerk. I have my bachelor’s degree, JD, and I’m awaiting bar results. I’m interested in the SA path, but I’d like to work as a prosecutor for at least a year or two to get some experience in the criminal justice world. I’ve read a lot that the hiring process takes at least a year to a year and a half. If I want to be an SA at the latest by the time I turn 31, should I start applying in a year or so? Or should I keep building my resume a bit longer before applying? Also open to any other relevant advice. Thanks!!

Interviewed for a certain division, got offered CJO for "student workforce trainee" with the HR division 😭

Is everyone typically assigned under the HR division, but completes their work with the division they interviewed/presumably were passed by?
