Excellent Source of Information.......2006-08-20
I purchased the book on the grounds that I needed information about the hiring process and the steps it takes to gain employment with the FBI. In my opinion there should not be any prep books or material for the job, either you have what it takes to make it or you don't. This book gave me what I needed to know so that I was informed about how hiring decisions were made and what steps the agency takes in selecting candidates. I wish all who purchase this book the best of luck and to just remember that you have to live up to a lot to be part of the FBI.
Great reference, but in need of a revision.......2006-05-30
This book is a wonderful backgrounder on the FBI, its history, and how things work within the agency. The list of field offices and the areas they cover was alone worth the cost of the book. The interview hints were sparce, but very applicable. The problem is the application process has changed in some pretty dramatic ways since this book was published. The FBI now uses on-line applications and the application form has been changed. The needs and focus of the Bureau have also changed since 9/11
Yes, this book was helpful. But if you are interested in applying to the FBI, contact the Applicant Coordinator in your local field office and search the web for a law enforcement employment message board to get the latest news in the world of FBI hiring.
Great book.......2005-10-25
Great author, too. I had him as a Criminal Justice professor at Grand Valley State University. He was an adjunct professor there for a couple of years. Very nice, very knowledgeable. This book is a good reference and starting point. Sure, most of the information is available on the Internet, but why go through all the trouble of finding it when it can all be at your fingertips?
Not much info here........2005-09-15
I thought that this would be a good book to help me prepare for the phase 1 testing and what else is to come. Most of the recomendations are just common sense and all of the information was redily available on the internet for free.
FBI Minature Golf.......2005-08-31
We Hope in a future edition, that the author does not forget the path John Douglas (Ret.FBI: BSU) followed to finally arrive at Quantico. Miniture Golf Instructor. Yes now it can be told! Johns career all started at the end; if you will. Yep! at the end of McChord Air Force Base in Parkland Washington. At the venerable "Parkland Mini Putt" miniture golf course. I'll save the details for John himself to fill in, as he's kinda shy about his handicap.
Ta,
Timothy Vaher

Good general overview.......2003-11-11
It was very useful for me to see all the agencies listed with their web sites, numbers and typical background/degrees of new hires.This allowed me to narrow my focus. The main weakness for me was not enough info on KSA's, fed resumes and actual interviews. I would recomend this book, but also suggest you pick up another to complement it...
CORRECTION.......1999-12-08
MAKE A NOTE OF THIS, EVERYONE! This book has incorrectly listed the job hotline for the Environmental Protection Agency. They listed the number as #202.260.5055, but the correct listing is #202.418.4320. PLEASE pass the word. Thanks!
Excellent resource for the US resident jobseakers.......1998-11-18
I have read this book and it is excellent. Whatit is light on are recent policy changes, hot openings areas and good definitin of residency exeption, the onsite contractor opportunities and the educational/industrial partnership availablities. It is heartwarming to know even in this harsh erra of trial by fire downsizing in the federal arena, there are still 38000 great jobs in NSA, 5100 PTO positions and 52000 in the Defense Investigative Service. So many openings in high end administrative, tech savy,or secure positions with so few willing and able candidates obsessed with private industry.Too bad there entrance requirements for most mean you'd have to be a fresh college grad, PhD (at 57k and secure US resident) or not have a single mark on your police or financial record. Kinda tight requirements in national security regions these days.
