Central Intelligence Agency

Love or hate it, the Central Intelligence Agency is an American icon. The press is certainly very mixed. On the one hand, the CIA as supporters of United States in time of war. During the cold war was dramatisé international espionage. The popular image of Cape and dagger black ops CIA officers who fought against international criminals, the Communists and the crazy to protect the world for democracy. At the same time, the aura of secrecy created the Central Intelligence Agency, autour feelings are sometimes. It was difficult to see an agency who secretly in international affairs as defenders of democracy has been tinkering.

When I am for a signed employment of the Central Intelligence Agency, I've done in part because I wanted this contradiction. Briefly a career at the National Security Agency I thought, but I thought central intelligence if more my style. I wasn't so interested in good cryptography as old fashioned espionage or data analysis. By an agent of the CIA, I would be able to see what is happening in the world and a little insight in the picture of national security.

Although I can't talk about what I did for the Central Intelligence Agency, I can tell you one thing: it is much more simple routine and that expect you. There are many reports, meetings, telemetric observation and security missions systematic and control of his superiors. This is not some films of James Bond where you're constantly involved in battles with Ninja who want to kill you. It was certainly not manic wizards that I had to fight with. Most of the things I did was just a more sophisticated and complete the situation in the developed world knowledge intelligence helps my superiors.

The Central Intelligence Agency is absolutely necessary. One of the things that I learned when doing the job full sense of the term "knowledge is power." Although sometimes the CIA covert operations, is the most important that we actually are to collect information. Our leaders are aware of the political situation in the world and potential threats, most they can do to protect ourselves and to avoid those threats. Central intelligence agents get to travel abroad, to meet interesting people and make the world a safer place. What would be a better job than? I am not at all. This is why I work for the CIA.
