What's Really Killing Law Enforcement?

[Eurodriver]

Say that to the white, male, non-veteran guy with a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice….

Why would anyone get a degree in criminal justice though? The Feds are no different than the private sector and a degree in criminal justice doesn’t really convey much.

Fed LE is scooping up CPAs like it’s going out of style. Anyone with a degree and working knowledge of finance is being thrown so many GS13 Agent positions that they get to be picky.

Also I don’t think veteran matters as much as it used to - sure you get preference but that just gets you to the BQ list. Agencies are realizing that if they want quality hires they need varied experiences that involve something other than “I can follow instructions”
