I recently applied to the CIA over the internet in early march for a Clandestine student position.  They recently contacted me and asked me to fill out a packet.  I have not heard since and was wondering if my application just simply caught the attention of some program that filters the applications.  I still have two weeks left for them to call, but I was wondering what the general consensus is on if I'm qualified to continue the interview process.

Qualifications:

Pursing a BS degree in Political Science  and minor in Arabic at a notable university

Currently have a 3.8 GPA

Proficient in writing, speaking, translating Arabic on at least the 2 level and plan on taking additional classes to improve proficiency

Traveled abroad in Europe and Middle East

Work History:  food service and general warehouse working for publishing company

Completely clean track record: No felonies, tickets, drugs, drinking, piracy, theft, cheating, mental illness, ect.

I am in the same boat, not as qualified as you, but did you ever hear from them? Based on other posts I have read, they usually send a letter if an application is not accepted otherwise it could take more than a month, which is in my case, but no word from them yet. I am just nervous as I really want this.

Thanks and good luck to you as well.

the thirty days is just an estimate. you can call the office and ask them, and they do send rejection letters so if you haven't got one of those yet i wouldn't give up hope.

Pursing BS Mechanical engineering and Bio-Technology Engineering (double degree)

Proficient in Mandarin, Cantonese, and regional Chinese (plus writing and reading)

US citizen.  

Work for U.S. D.O.T NHTSA internship this summer and still have security clearance, not sure what level.

Whats my chance of getting a internship with CIA? If my GPA is only 3.0?

I haven't apply yet, but reading all posts here, look like its hard to get in.  So before doing so, can someone tell me what my chance of getting in with my GPA and background (clean)
