CIA ^ | 01/29/2009

Posted on 03/12/2009 7:47:04 AM PDT by TigerLikesRooster

Economic Analyst

Work Schedule: Full Time

Salary: $48,682 - $95,026*

Location: Washington, DC metropolitan area

The CIA's Directorate of Intelligence (DI) seeks economists to assess foreign economic policies and foreign financial issues - licit as well as illicit - that affect US security interests. They work closely with political, leadership and military analysts throughout the Intelligence Community in producing current and longer-term intelligence products. There is a particular need for country/regional economists with strong backgrounds in China, the Middle East and South Asia, and for specialists in international banking systems, financial markets, financial transactions, financial instruments, and energy.

Economic analysts will also assess illicit financial activities, including networks used by terrorist and criminal groups, financing and procurement of weapons of mass destruction, money laundering and corruption among foreign governments and companies. Agency analysts are encouraged to maintain and broaden professional ties through academic study, contacts and attendance at professional meetings. They may also choose to pursue additional studies in fields relevant to their areas of responsibility. Opportunities exist for foreign travel, language training, analytic and management training, and assignments in other offices in the Agency and throughout the US Government.

Not funny. The Masters of the Intelligence Universe have a string of failures that cost American lives.
