whats a better career psychologist or CIA investigator?

psychologist would be an easier job to get.  There is a lot of work and effort involved in getting into the CIA.  And it's not the glory you see in movies either.  If you are interested, contact them and they can tell you more about the CIA.  I'm not sure psychology is a major they are after, so if you are leaning that direction, you might need to change your major.

Starbucks, Border's, Seattle's Best.  No, seriously their are jobs out there, with the CIA and with other organizations that analyze world and political events, but they are very competitive and you need to have stellar grades to get them.  If you want to work for the CIA or some sort of government organization I would reccomend getting a security clearance now.  You can do this by joining the army and getting certain jobs for which you need a security clearance.

A bachelors in psychology is better than no degree (by a lot), but to work in that field you really need a masters or doctorate. If you are not set on psychology as your career field, then do not worry about it so much. I have my BS in sociology and work as a software trainer! You just need a college degree, don't worry too much about how applicable it is!

I think you're really looking to be in parapsychology or something like that.  That's not a real science question.  Learn some basics first and then come back and try again.

Depending on what you would like to do.  Like if you want to join the CIA you need a Bachelors degree to apply.  Being ex-military is a big help though.  Check out www.federaljobsearch.com

The best way to become a CIA agent is to go to the website in my sources. They will pay for your education if you can get the scholarship. All you need is a minimum of a 3.0 GPA and be able to speak English clearly. Based on the lower level job you are placed in you would have to get a degree in that. So basically as long as you are committed to finishing school you can go into the CIA with a high school diploma. They will require all of your summers to be spent working for them. Have fun.

Both are good choices.  He should decide based on his own likes and dislikes, though.  I can speak about Intel jobs, as I was Army Intel for 6yrs.  I worked with alot of AF imagery intelligence analysts in Miami, FL.  They all told me the job was great and promotions were plentiful.  Seemed to keep them all quite high and dry, too.  They spent hours in front of computer screens identifying military targets, equipment, etc from satellite surveillance imagery.  The medical personnel were just like any normal hospital personnel, though.  They have jobs for nurses, aides, assistants, records, etc.  The Air Force has its own community college that grants degrees for schooling and experience in a job as well.

To steal one from Archie Bunker--what are you going to do?  be a sociologist?  \n\nPsycology is both more apt to lead to a job, and is a harder (more fact, less opinion) science than sociology.

Bi-Langual is a huge factor. Degree in Business is good, especially if you have accounting minor. Most agencies are not looking for military/police they are looking more for chemist, computer specialist, accountants, translators, etc. High GPA is also a plus. CIA, FBI, Secret Service are hard to get into if you are straight out of college. Graduate degree helps. Once you get into Federal govt it is a lot easier to transfer to the agency that you really want. DEA, Border Patrol, Customs are some of the "easier" agencies to get into. Good Luck. Be ready to move off to where everland for at least 2-5yrs.

sensitive material relates to special skills you might hold (such as being able to fluently translate russian and french).  Military intelligence is involved heavily in classified information as well as well placed brass in the pentagon.  Although they are not military, the CIA probably knows more secrets about the military then many officers.  As what has been mentioned already, your not guaranteed anything by your recruiter.  The military puts you where they need you; not what you need.

The CIA, because they where better equipped then the KGB.

CIA works internationally as well as nationally, it  also has a broader jurisdiction. FBI only works nationally and is more focused on specific people, where as CIA works on the organisations. i think CIA is mroe important

Well - maybe you want to increase your investigation skills and specialize in a different safety-oriented area is a thought.  Also, that you feel it is time to move into a different field, all the while remaining in a peace officer position because of your love for the job

Either Psychology or Psychiatry are your best bets. It depends on how much close contact you want with those you are working with. In Psychology you'll have more book study time and learning about the mind in general, but as a Psychiatrist you'll have time to work with individual patients on their problems. Also keep the ideas of Counsellor, Social worker, or Therapist on your mind. The best thing to do would be to talk to an expert career finder. Hey, you may end up doing that for a living yourself! There are plenty of job opportunities open for people who like to help, I'm sure you'll find what fits you best if you look into it.

IT OFF CONGRATS FOR COMING TO THIS POINT. SECOND BEING A PSYCHOLOGIST AND KNOWING A SECOND LANGUAGE IS ALWAYS A GOOD THING. AM SURE IF YOU APPLY TO THE SECRET SERVICE THEY WILL FIND A USE FOR YOU. BEING ABLE TO UNDERSTAND A MIND OF A PERSON IS VERY GOOD FOR THAT LINE OF WORK. IT ALL ABOUT KNOWING THE MIND TO COUNTERACT IT. GOOD LUCK
