    Getting hired by the Central Intelligence Agency has been my primary focus for almost four years now. While I was still serving in the Army I had decided to start college classes so as to expedite the process of getting my degree once my time serving in uniform was over. I knew that I wanted to continue to serve my country, but I also knew that I wanted to see the world, and to be challenged while doing so. After doing some research into my options I decided that pursuing a career with the CIA was by far the most appealing thing I could possibly imagine. Working in the DC area at the CIA’s headquarters would obviously be an incredible achievement for me, but I still want more than that.…

    At the beginning of the semester I was somewhat intimated by the amount of course work that was expected of each student in this class. However, as time went on and I started to complete the assignments, it became clear how useful many of them were, particularly the resume and the career exploration paper. Both of these assignments were beneficial in their own way, despite the time and effort that went in to completing them according to the instructions. The resume and subsequent critiques from multiple sources yielded a professional document that is flawless and ready to be disseminated to potential employers after a minor customization to it based upon the job description and requirements. The career exploration assignment has taught me how…

    Veterans Stereotypes

    • 5 Pages

    Another stereotype and misconception that Veterans are given is that they are they are only good for killing others as well as to being completely uneducated and do not have any other skill other than the one they they get from training and working for the military. The skills that they do receive from the military are completely useless when adapting to civilian life, and veterans are viewed by some as useless, unskilled, and unemployed. That they are a huge waste of taxpayer money if they were to serve no purpose outside of the military and they are just better off staying with the military and just serve and die instead of trying to take the jobs of workers who are actually skilled in what they do. So with this info in mind an employer…
