Attend a candid and informative presentation and discussion with officers of the National Clandestine Service (NCS) from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and learn about full-time overseas career opportunities. Please bring your resume and be prepared for a potential interview at a later date.
National Clandestine Service careers offer fast-paced, varied work environments that will challenge you to find innovative solutions to complex problems, to travel internationally, and to use your business and other professional skills as well as existing or new language capabilities in ways that will make a positive difference to you, your family and your country. This is more than a job. It is a way of life for professionals who demand the highest personal satisfaction from their work. The NCS is an intelligence service with positions available primarily overseas. However, the NCS requires training in Washington DC and nearby areas prior to working overseas.
