lionlove - I'm in the track for the economist position but I think I'm going to switch over to public diplomacy. I know they're hard to get but putting down consular because it's easier would leave me miserable. Can you switch tracks after you've been accepted ever?
UKAXO - Yeah the only thing I'm worried about are the people with the internships or the kids finishing up their peace corps tours. Do they offer internships for people who are about to graduate?
AlphaSigOU - Yeah I applied at the NSA and CIA. The NSA pays you beans and the CIA was...nice...but that's all. I also would have been unable to pass security clearance at the NSA without a special permit from a director and they never give those out for entry level positions. The positions I applied for were not science or tech based.
I'm not worried about the exams too much. They test some basic stuff and the stuff that isn't basic is just weird trivia (like who was the first native american senator) which I have some shot at I figure. Anyone know where to look for some more sample questions?
And what does the security clearance involve? I can't find anything on their website on what they check on.
