I spoke with a few friends, both in college and military, in hopes of trying to gather enough info about what would be the best option for a friend interested in FBI, CIA, etc. careers. We argued for a while on the military issue and whether or not this would the BEST option. Being in his senior year, I told him ROTC is likely not an option (OCS would be the best bet if Officer is his goal), but even that seems not to be guaranteed. Having family in related fields, I'm just as curious I guess the questions are as follows:
1.) What is the best option for a college senior interested in FBI/CIA type work?
2.) If military is the best option, how would one best make use of his/her degree (in terms of assuring an Officer position)? What sub-group (intelligence, infantry, etc.) is most desirable for FBI/CIA goals? And with which branch of the military (Army? Navy? Marines?)
