What internships/job titles did you work in before landing a job as a Forensic Psychologist or in a Federal Agency?
Hi all, hope you are doing well! I am a second year Forensic Psychology student living in New Jersey. Although I hate to admit it, my career goals aren't exactly set, but I know that I want to either work as a Forensic Psychologist in the court system or in any Behavioral Analysis/Criminal Profiling role for a federal agency such as the FBI, CIA, DEA, etc. As a result, my question here today is for anyone who has either worked in one of the careers I'm interested in, is on the way there, or who is currently in this role; What internship or job titles have you held to get here? I am asking this as someone who is seriously struggling to find internships or jobs in my area that will genuinely add something to my area of interest. I have been looking for a little over a year, but am struggling to find something that is both in my area and that is relevant. At the moment, I have about 5 years of volunteer experience in a law enforcement program for youth (think along the lines of an Explorer Post) that I have worked at long enough to serve as a Board Member and a job as a Secretary for another Community-based program, so I am extremely eager to start getting involved in my actual career of interest. As always, I am eagerly awaiting any response and would appreciate any advice that can be given. Thank you so much!
