This kind of jobs usually requires citizenship. Is there a country where it's not needed or it could be gained during the training? Is there an institute worth going, preferably in Europe or any english speaking country? I am 17 and live in Finland. I know that finnish polices are hired in scandinavian area. I am also interested if there's private companies hiring people for that kind of job (bodyguard etc.).

I have been thinking about joining the military for a while now and I am just wondering what section would best suite me. I am in school right now and plan to get my masters in chemical engineering. Is there a particular branch that I could best utilize this degree in? I have been thinking about the Navy Seals although I know it would be rigorous training. I am already in great physical condition, I think its more a factor of how I could best utilize my knowledge/skills effectively and efficiently.

I'm currently in the military. I have been through alot of tactical training with all kindz of weapons and other types of combat training. More advanced than the typical infantry personell. I'm looking to become a part of a federal agency (not sure wich one) and was wondering what type of degree I should go for. I was looking at the bachelors of arts in homeland security. Would that be a good choice. Also I hold a secret clearance and was wondering if that helps or not. I know that it not uncommon for people to have that clearance.

I just graduated from college and have joined the Army. My ultimate goal is to land a job as a Special/Field Agent with a federal law enforcement agency. My bachelor's degree is in criminal justice and I'm hoping that combined with military experience I will be a good candidate for a federal law enforcement position. Can anyone, preferably someone with experience, or holding a federal law enforcement position provide me with any helpful information?

DEA, Air/U.S Marshal, F.B.I, maybe even SWAT. How would a B.A in criminal justice, combat experience in afghanistan as infantry airborne, and 3 years of service as a military police officer look when applying?

I already did my freshman year in college, but now we are having financial issues. So I was thinking in attending a community college, graduate ( which by the time, I will turn 21) then apply for a police officer. Maybe after some years have passed, apply for a job as a FBI special agent. Will this work? I really want to be an FBI Special agent.
