Job Advice

Hey y’all,

I am currently looking for a job in the Intel field and I’m having trouble finding a job that I would be qualified for and I am seeking advice from you all to see where I could focus my job search.

I just graduated with my bachelors in homeland security and I am an intelligence analyst in the Marine corps reserves, so my experience is very limited as I have not gone on any active orders. Essentially I meet most requirements for analyst jobs but am lacking experience. But, because I have a clearance I assume it makes me a better candidate.

I’m really open to anything, just so I can get my foot in the door. I have a job now so I don’t need anything immediate, however, I prefer to have something by the end of the year. The only thing I want to avoid is any job that requires me to go through an academy. Additionally, I live in Maryland and I’d prefer to stay in the state and would like to avoid D.C. and Virginia.
