Does it matter what degree you have when applying for a job in National Security positions?

I want a position within the National Security arena. When my area of interest is in the National Security area I want to either prepare myself for a good career in business, without eliminating myself for a position with either the CIA (National Security) or FBI. #national-security #career #career-choice

Rheana’s Answer

The answer to this question depends on what you want to do in National Security. What do you want to do at CIA or FBI? Each agency has everything from HR to Finance/Budget to Legal to Mail Room to Facilities Management to Information Technology to Custodial/Janitorial Services. All of these departments support the agency mission/National Security. Once you figure out exactly what you want to do, you can decide on a college major. I actually used to work at one of the agencies you mentioned, but I worked in Human Resources. My degree is also in Human Resources. You and I may have different career goals, but we both would work in National Security. Makes sense? I hope this helps!

Keith’s Answer

I know that these were preferred degrees for several of the government agencies in the past, I still think these are very relevant.
