How do I get a job as a psychologist in law enforcement?

Ever since I saw Dr. Sweets in Bones and the show Lie to Me I thought it would be a really cool job to be able to get to help out with criminal profiling and interrogations. Do I just need to get a psychology degree to get the job or do I need to double major in something else as well? #psychology #administration-of-justice #law-enforcement

How can I become a environmental/wildlife enforcement officer?

My ultimate goal is to become an environmental enforcement or wildlife enforcement officer for Environment and Climate Change Canada. I have so many questions about this position (what's the hiring process like? what is a typical day in the job? what is the pay? do I have to relocate to different locations in Canada? I'm thinking of getting a bachelor of arts in environmental studies, would that qualify to be an officer?, and many more) and would love to connect to anyone who are or have been an environment/ wildlife enforcement officer or those who shares the same goal as me #environmental-services #environmental-compliance #environment #law-enforcement #environmental

How do you become a Crime Scene Technician?

I have been trying to figure out the real steps to becoming part of the Criminal Justice area, but I would really like to focus on gathering evidence, investigation, etc. However, I do not want to go on the path of a patrol/police officer in order to obtain this job. Is there a path I can take without becoming an officer, but still becoming a Crime Scene Technician? #crime-scene-investigation #criminal-justice #law-enforcement #csi #criminology

What's a good major to pursue if I want to have a "back up" career?

I want to study psychology, criminology, marketing/accounting, or sociology. Eventually I want to become an FBI Agent. I know there are people who don't stay in the same career all their life or sometimes their careers even fail. What's a good major I can pursue that will guarantee me a job in the workplace? Especially somewhere in the law enforcement or business world. I love dealing with people. I just don't want to pick a major that can affect my future financial stability. #money #financial-stability #career-choice #choosing-a-major #fbi-agent #law-enforcement #women-in-business #psychology #social-media-marketing #sociology

How do I know if I will enjoy becoming an FBI agent? Or if I'll be good at it or successful?

I love watching TV shows related to law enforcement, whether it's from the perspective of a criminal or law enforcer. I wanted to become an FBI Agent ever since my brother was murdered and for some reason it really interests me that they solve different kinds of cases all over the United States. I've been a part of an FBI program for high school students and they make us role play and pretend to actually be "agents" but I'm afraid that it'll be way too competitive out there in the field that I won't get in. What if I do get in and I don't enjoy it? What would my daily life look like if I was an FBI Agent? #FBI #law-enforcement #law #federal-agent #fbi-agent #success

Can you have tattoos and still become an FBI Agent?

My career goal is to become an FBI Agent, but I'm not sure if I can be in the FBI if I have tattoos. Will I just have to cover them up, or am I not allowed to have them all, or is it no big deal as long as they are appropriate? #career #law-enforcement
