Evening all,
I'm very interested in applying to become an Intelligence Officer through the Direct Entry Officer program. I have a Double Honours degree in Political Science and History, and from what I can tell those are two fairly relevant and ideal disciplines to have studied in order to be somewhat qualified for the Intelligence officer position.
My question is, basically, what is the likelihood of being recruited for Int through DEO program? I've read quite a few posts from the past suggesting that the CF doesn't normally take on Intelligence officers from outside their ranks. Int is what I'm most interested in, and I'm at the point where I'm ready to go and speak to a recruiter as soon as I am out of my isolated summer job.
I am mid 20s, in great shape, born and raised in Canada, and meet all the requirements on paper. I've tried to study up on DEO and Int as much as possible so that I know what questions to ask and what to expect when I visit a recruiter, and I thought asking you incredibly knowledgeable and experienced members if they are currently likely to take DEOs in Int was a good last step before visiting my recruiter!
Thanks for your responses in advance
