What does the BAU actually do?
Okay- I admit I've been watching a little too much criminal Minds- but I was wondering what they actually do. I find interesting- "profiles." I think that it's a great tool to really get into a criminal's minds- no pun intended. I've watched my fair share of law enforcement tv shows- and they all have inspired me. But- I don't know exactly what would fit me best- Anyways, The BAU is very interesting, helpful and cool. I really want to know what they really do? IS the show accurate? Do they actually investigate? Or do they just give profiles? #law #business #criminalminds #newyork # #criminal-justice #lawyers #corporate-law #FBI #BAU #law-enforcement #enforcement
How close is Brooklyn-99 to the real NYPD?
Ok, dumb question, but is Brooklyn-99 anything similar to actually being on the NYPD? I love the show and it's made me consider joining the NYPD but I know it's fiction and probably unrealistic. One of the best parts about the show is its representation and diversity, but is the NYPD force actually anything like that, or is it like police stereotypes and mostly white guys? I know the events and humor are exaggerated on TV, but does the workplace typically have toxic masculinity and racism like some police forces are known to have? #JULY20 #police #NYPD #cops #cop #NYC #New-York #criminal-justice

Professional jobs that don't involve spending all day on the computer
I'm a political science college grad with experience working in the courts system, legal support, and criminal justice policy. I've realized that I don't like spending all day on the computer, and most of the professional jobs that I've had involve a lot of solo computer work. This last semester, I was a teaching assistant, and it was really fun to spend my time teaching and attending class, and communicating with the students and the professor. I don' t mind computer work, especially if it involves communicating with others in some way, but my ideal would be about 3 to 4 hours per day rather than 8 or 9. I'm looking at what my next steps will be after the pandemic and wondering where I can go from here that will involve moving around and communicating with people. Hoping to get ideas for an area of work, or a role within an area of work that makes sense with my experience! Given my previous experience as a TA, I've considered some type of student support role in higher education. I've also considered criminal or regulatory investigations (or audit investigations) but I'm not sure if my experience would translate into that directly. I am also looking at admin roles in areas related to my experience that seem to involve a lot of coordinating logistics & communicating with others. Thanks in advance for your time! #criminology #law #criminal-justice #teaching #higher-education #investigations
What steps do I need to take to join the Behavioral Analysis Unit of the FBI?
I am currently a psychological science and criminology major at the University of California, Irvine. My dream career is a Special Agent who "profiles" a criminal and their behavior in order to understand the criminals. I am aware that in order to be considered for this job, one must first become a Special Agent under the FBI. However, I am still unclear of the direct steps necessary to achieve this goal. It would be amazing if anyone could even point me in the right direction! #criminal-justice #career #law #psychology #forensic-psychology #criminal-profiler #FBI

What are some jobs related to social justice?
I've come to realize that my only passion is social justice, especially for lgbtq and poc. I do also have a desire to help people and a knack for writing. However I feel like I would not thrive on one-on-one work like becoming a councelor because it feels too personal and too much pressure, like I would be devestated if I failed someone. Do you think I could be satisfied with some specific career in politics, law, psych research, or something that helps spread awareness? #social-justice #lawyer #psychology #politics #political-science #law #criminal-justice

How can I become a lawyer? I already took the LSAT and got a 164 and submitted an application essay, but I applied for the CAS which did not send my transcripts to the appropriate schools I applied to, so I did not get in. Is there an easier way to become a lawyer? I have ADHD, depression, and anxiety and I really need some help because I can't jump through all of the hoops required to become a lawyer. My dream is to work for civil rights and social justice.
