This guy has a lot of wisdom. Be honest with yourself and let your heart lead you

[@Americanheld]

What an insightful episode, thank you for this!

I recently graduated with a masters degree in architecture. I've been looking for an officer career that would allow me to continue serving in the military. I never thought intelligence would be a good fit. As architects we are educated in learning how to dissect information from various cultures, we do lots of site analysis, research, budget capabilities, theory, history, coding, humanitarian design in which we look at countries outside the US and their economic capabilities, current conflicts, etc. We are educated with such a broad range of subjects, its hard to translate that into something that has more substance than just blueprints. This really, really, really helps.

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

architecture can qualify you for a lot of different career fields. take a look: www.milvet.state.pa.us/DMVA/Docs_PNG/hro/AFOCD.pdf

Are there opportunities for intelligence officers in the private sector? What skills do you learn that would transfer to the civilian world? Comparing to 17D where they learn a lot of skills and get certificates that can broaden their civilian world prospects, is there anything similar that a 14N would learn that would learn that would broaden their civilian prospects? Or is a 14N pretty much locked into government positions?

I’m hoping to attend USAFA as well and check out this career! It was reassuring to hear his points about making the most where you are as I fit that mindset to a T

Can you please do videos for the air guard or air reserve?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

we did.

[@flaviofelix99]

loved the podcast! lots of incredibly valuable info there that isn't easy to find. I have been struggling a bit to decide my career path in the armed forces and would love to be able to connect with Zane. I know I want to end up as an intel officer but can't start that process yet. How can we connect?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

send an email to [e-mail] and we’ll forward it on to Zane.

@@airforceofficerpodcast thank you so very much!!!! you guys are absolutely amazing; I'm slowly listening to all podcasts haha

[@hannahscanlan7555]

Are MI officers eligible for language training if they pass the DLAB test? What are the requirements of getting language trained? For ex. Do you have to serve a certain number of years?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

yes, intel officers can get language training, but it’s generally not a primary duty. that sort of work is left to the enlisted linguists.

[@db2k_tv]

Great video, love that you guys explained the tells of this career! My family is active/prior military so I’m taking notes to bring back to them. Are there any fields of study in college that I should be taking to help get a better understanding of intelligence and to have a stronger probability of securing the position?

Do you think you can do a podcast on any prior enlisted officers and their whole progress?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

we've interviewed many pro enlisted officers. what specifically are you looking for?

[@Lowkeyme-s7w]

Jag officers and human intelligence officers

Finishing up my MBA, took it because I am interested in leadership in particular, helping lead initiatives. Is that a large part of being an intelligence Officer?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

💯

[@briankelly1240]

@@airforceofficerpodcast : just saw you replied, just scheduled to talk to a recruiter, wrapping up MBA in May!

[@becraftcorey]

Do you have to have a degree in a specific area or can it be anything? Air force website says you have to have a specific degree ?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

a 14N can have a degree in pretty much anything, but you can see for yourself here: www.milvet.state.pa.us/DMVA/Docs_PNG/hro/AFOCD.pdf

I am graduating with a Bachelors's in Business Management this December 2023. How hard would it be to get commissioned as an Intelligence Officer?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

hard.

[@BBVictini1]

How about as a Physics and Math double-major (2 BSs)?

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

still hard. the degree has little to do with it. getting selected for OTS is extremely competitive.

[@chickenlips605]

Son is currently in ROTC; is it difficult to be selected for this career field? TIA

[@airforceofficerpodcast]

intel is among the largest career fields, so it’s not difficult from a numbers game. that said, how well your son performs in school and AFROTC will decide whether he gets his top choice. also, the needs of the Air Force will always be a factor.

For Those AWARDED a red folder when going through processing, do they exit or get detained? Timothy Ryan Olds received one at MEPS of Troy Michigan, but was released. This was back in 2015. Perhaps it was due to a covert mission to learn why we forgot that freemasons were given the opportunity to hide nukes on farmland often masked by what would appear from arial swimming pools. North Korean insurgents in search of such in USA, SAMSUNG HQ TWIN TOWERS IN NORTH KOREA.
