The FBI is on the hunt for a few hundred special agents.
Buffalo Business First reports that the FBI is searching for people who speak foreign languages, people with accounting, computer science or IT skills or people with law degrees.
“From Aug. 1 to Aug. 15, posting for special agent positions will be open,” said Buffalo field office special-agent-in-charge Brian Boetig. “These are gun-toting, badge-carrying investigators, and we’ll get hundreds of thousands of applicants, who will be assigned to one of the agency’s 56 U.S. field offices, or one of 60 overseas offices.”
Boetig said a lot of help is needed.
“We’re always looking for accountants and those with law backgrounds because of the amount of health-care fraud,” he said. “People with computer and technology backgrounds are helpful because of cyber threats we face.”
Applicants must be between the ages of 23 and 37.
