Best Answer

Be at least 18 years old and a high school graduate to do any type of clerical, secretary-type job. Any other job at the CIA requires at least a 4-year college degree (BA/BS) with a minimum 3.0GPA, if not more advanced degrees (MA/MS, MBA, JD, PhD, etc). For almost any position at the CIA, being fluent in a foreign language and having excellent written and communication skills is a huge bonus, if not a necessity. And lastly, stay out of trouble. All CIA employees must pass an extensive background investigation to determine your trustworthiness, reliability, and overall character. Any arrests, drug use, alcohol abuse, or history of being untrustworthy or overly gossipy can seriously screw up any chance of being hired.

To apply to the CIA is not all secret and high-tech as the movies might make it seem. No guy dressed in black with sunglasses will show up at your door and try to recruit you. You actually just simply go to the CIA's website, cia.gov, and they have an entire careers section on their site. They post all current job openings, descriptions of all their different jobs, specific requirements, and salary and benefit information. Once you're ready, you just apply online, and if they're interested, they'll get back to you.

The CIA was opening Steinbeck's mail as part of their HTLINGUAL program. There's evidence now that Steinbeck actually worked for the CIA in a new book Steinbeck: Citizen Spy. You might be thinking of Steinbeck believing that the FBI was following him during the Second World War.
