Is being a DSS (diplomatic security service) agent a good career?We Answered:
Yes being a Diplomatic Security Service Special Agent is a good career. If you are interested in being a federal agent while spending a a significant part of your career living and working overseas, then DSS might be the place for you. You will be required to move about every 2-3 years and can expect to do your first 2-3 years domestically in a field office with a handful of temporary duty protection assignments overseas.DSS is NOT an easy agency to get into. One reason is that there are not that many agents compared to other agencies such as the FBI, ATF, ICE, etc. DSS has openings usually only once a year and sometimes less frequently than that. The best way to see when they are hiring is by checking the U.S. Department of State website. On the website you will also see that there are opportunities to become a Foreign Service Officer (FSO). Also very competitive but very rewarding. FSOs have many opportunities to learn foreign languages and spend most of their careers working at U.S. embassies and consulates overseas. These are the folks that are diplomats.
As for what you should study in college, just study what you are interested in. A bachelors degree is required and good grades are importatnt. There are agents that have degrees in criminal justice, history, international relations, psychology, foreign languages, and law. If you are particulary interested in law enforcement, criminal justice is always good and being fluent in Spanish is definitely a plus.
When you get ready to graduate from college, I would recommend that you apply to numerous agencies and go from there. Kind of a shotgun effect, you apply for a lot of jobs and take the best offer. It's not unusual to start out with one department and then move on to another as opportunities become available. A lot of federal agents have also started their careers as local or state police officers. Which is definitely not a bad way to start out and get some good street law enforcement experience.
For federal jobs go to www.usajobs.opm.gov
Remember to keep your options open and stay focused in college.
Good luck!

Will pot experimentation 10 times bar me from getting in the Air Foce Security Forces?We Answered:
I know that honesty is the best policy... but in this case it's not. I was fired from my very first job for what they perceived as stealing (long story)... afterwards, did I go around writing that on my applications/resumes? Absolutely not. Honesty is great, but if it's something that's going to harm your chances at success, then keep it to yourself. If you haven't smoked recently, then how are they to know about your past experiences?And by the way, 10 times is not many at all.. I used to know a kid in high school who literally came to school high every day.

What can I do to land a decent IT job?We Answered:
Josh....Your right on target. You have excellent credentials. If I were reading your resume you would go to the top of the pile. Don't get discouraged. Remember.......network.......network....… Answer anything and I do mean anything you come across. The economy is in the toilet. But someone somewhere is looking for you. You sound like a great prospect. Keep going and never ever take it personally........its just a matter of time before you hook up with some company that will love to have you. Don't give up.....You need to understand the following and remember the competition is fierce........Good Luck.........
There are thousand and thousands of talented, experience people on the street due to the economy…the competition for any job is extreme. …people will do anything for much less just to feed their kids……..I don’t expect it to get any better before 2012……
Keep pulling harder than the next guy. Your turn is on the way......
