041: FBI Special Agent - A Career Like No Other

In this special episode, Special Agents Greg Branch and Bill Toland are interviewed about the qualifications and requirements needed to become a special agent with the FBI. Greg joined the FBI in 1995 and has been assigned to squads handling reactive matters, such as drugs and bank robberies and to white collar crime investigations. For the past seven years, he has been tasked with recruiting efforts and is the Applicant Coordinator responsible for managing the special agent hiring program in the Philadelphia Division. Bill, a recent graduate of the FBI Academy, is also based in the Philadelphia Division, where he is on a Cyber Squad. They provide a thorough and personal review of the FBI Special Agent hiring program and what it's like to train at the FBI Academy. I encourage all listeners interested in joining the FBI to apply, especially women and minorities. All potential FBI Special Agent candidates must start the application process online at FBIJobs.gov.  Check out episode show notes, photos, and related articles.  https://jerriwilliams.com/fbi-special-agent/   See also updated 2022 recruiting interview: https://jerriwilliams.com/fbi-special-agent/     Buy me a coffee - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/JerriWilliams Join my Reader Team to get the FBI Reading Resource - Books about the FBI, written by FBI agents, the 20 clichés about the FBI Reality Checklist, and keep up to date on the FBI in books, TV, and movies via my monthly email.
