What do I need to do to get started on criminal profiling?

I've seen several television shows that incorporate criminal profiling and I realize that some of these shows may exaggerate the process that is taken to incriminate someone. One show that I watch is Criminal Minds, and this show has really sparked my interest. Even though this show may stretch the truth about some things but I am still very interested in the career. #law #police #criminal-justice #law-enforcement #lawyers #criminal #crime

I’m struggling to get the right answer

I understand that in able to become homicide detective you must become an police officer and then work there for years to get promoted but in some agencies they don’t require it ?? What if you start working as cyber detective and gaining experience, passing the fitness test etc required can that be instead of being a police officer? . Second question Can you work as both homicide detective and cyber detective at the same time if you have the skills to? Third question do you think a homicide detective can work remotely? I’m currently 11th grader and I’m gradation early as 12th grader I’m trying to figure out answers.What advice and suggestions you would give? I hope you can give in details

How do you handle conflict surrounding the job?

I am in the application process for a couple of different law enforcement agencies. I still live at home and have family members who are current or retired law enforcement. I have tried being open about the process and how it will work after I graduate from academy, but there is no way I'm changing their mind on not liking the idea (which I completely understand, as a good parent will always worry). Do you have advice on dealing with this conflict when it occurs? Or even on the job, how do you deal with conflict at home? #criminal-justice #law-enforcement #police #conflict #law #police-academy #advice

I am a senior at Lighthouse Community Charter Public School in Oakland California. I like to spend time with my family during my free time and be with my friends. For my career, I want to focus in criminology. I want to become a detective and solve cases. One of my skills is solving problems, for example math.

What should I do ?

To become a criminal defense attorney, I am currently studying criminal justice and was studying psych. However, I am dropping psych since they are so closely related. I was advised to do either Business Management, Accounting, or a science. I am awful at math and always have been. What other options would I have? What would look good applying for law schools?

How to narrow down a cluster of different career paths and interests, to about 3 or 4 and focus on those few, without uncertainty and second guessing?

The majors I am interested in are so different from each other (ex: architecture and law) that I am having a hard time to narrow it down to just a few. I am aware that I don't have to know now but I am on a time crunch and my goal is to narrow it down to 2 and stick with it.
