Listening to this story, it feels the best way to proceed through the recruitment process is just be yourself. Instead of thinking about how well to perform, is you just perform. Meaning it’s not about you wanting the job it’s about the job wanting what you are. Pretty dope.

We all are skilled in some aspect of life. For some, it's mote mental others more physical. Like being able to easily figure out a way to destroy something with what's around you. A quick thinker. They may be blunt, but sometimes you need a blunt tool. Other times, more meticulous. For those delicate matters of life. Sometimes, a snake. Why not charm them before you get what you need. Every person has a role in life. It's a matter of what you feel like you're good at. Find what you're good at and exploit it. Figure out what you're bad at and try to work hard to be good or at least decent at it. I used to suck at charming people. But over time and a massive amount of failed attempts, I learned how to properly converse with individuals. To the point where people end up giving me things for cheap. Combine that with intellect and quick thinking along with mechanical knowledge, and you're a machine designed to work in the modern era with no issues. It's a lot to read, and I do apologize. Though it's true. So, in short. Figure out what you're good at. Then, focus on that. Figure out what you're bad at and become better at it. If it's a fear. Beat that fear into submission. If it's strength, train to be stronger. Start off little and work your way up. It would be a shame for someone to die not being their best self. Though many do die without witnessing their ultimate form.

I’m 43. I underwent a barrage of tests a year ago and learned practically everything I always wanted to know. High-functioning autism, decided before birth. Underdeveloped right-brain, same. Anxiety and depression tied to sensory/processing/perception challenges (and millions of misunderstandings through interaction). Such information is really hard to swallow. Even harder as a husband and father. But the man is right: Long-term, I have a lot more headspace to focus on my irrefutable strengths and weaknesses. It’s just a shame I learned so late in life. I encourage anyone to get an examination by a qualified neuropsychologist. It’s expensive, but it changed my life in unimaginable ways.
@AdrianLoganLive
@AdrianLoganLive 2 года назад
Could you briefly explain how you went about doing that? I'm an INTP, I have a suspicion I am high-functioning autism. Did you just lok up a neuroppsychologist in your area and pay them to run the tests, that simple? How much did you pay? I just would like an idea of would I may expect for the cost. Thank you

@snail415
@snail415 2 года назад
@@AdrianLoganLive Fair questions, and I’ll try to answer without any discouragement. First, look for one with obvious and credible experience in a range of focus areas (ADD, ADHD, ASD, etc.). If you can, seek a free consultation. Ask about their test methodology so that YOU don’t waste time questioning their efforts and results. My doctor used internationally-recognized tools, tests, and techniques that have been around for many years. But he didn’t focus on brain structure- he focused on brain function. Ultimately you want to trust your doctor and the results, because if you’re any bit like me you are skeptical about a lot of what you see and hear. When it comes to an assessment about you…you don’t want to find yourself in that situation. So, I looked for “the best person” I could find. My assessment was about 4 hours and cost about $1,500. The written evaluation took 3 weeks, and I encouraged that process to take as long as it deserved. That document isn’t a ticket to some kind of handout or forgiveness - it helps you begin the journey to learning more than you know. It can also help your family see credibility to what you experience, but might not have known how to express any of it. Lastly- My doctor looked me in the eye at the onset and told me that he believed he could help me. He himself has ADD, and overcame the involved challenges on his own. He was a success story that made all the difference in agreeing to try the evaluation. The information and journey since has been very hard. But I cannot tell you how powerful it has been to know that I have to look in the mirror with that information and accept it. I have to apply what I can and ‘own’ my efforts with that information…just like my doctor chose to. I wish you the best. Remember that no matter ‘how you came out of the factory’, you have to find ways for others to feel the love you know you have. It’s everything, because when you succeed there you will feel the way you deserve to feel about who you are.

@@snail415 Thanks for taking the time to write that all out. I think that the price is well worth it for the path of peace it will hopefully set me on, and provide some closure to the apparent anomalies I continue to discover about myself. I often make videos inspired by my own self realizations in hopes it can provide some sort of value to others. It was only in the last few months at the age of 32 I realized I have social anxiety (and have for quite some time). I've avoided touching on the topics of ASD until I'm sure, but I've often mentioned in my content I'm neurodivergent. That's without a doubt. I hope I can find a doctor who I can be as confident with as you were with yours and discover more about myself. I know it will have a greater impact on my relationship with my self, and the people I care about in my life. Thanks again!

Same situation for me. Although I found it impossible to get a formal autism diagnosis as an adult. In hindsight, I’m glad I have no medical record of an ASD diagnosis……..you never know when laws will change and find yourself disqualified for certain rights & privileges. I might be paranoid but I think they will eventually disqualify autistics from firearm permits, as so many mass shooters are reported as being outsiders, socially awkward, quirky.

When I was out of college I directly applied to be a CIA officer. My then wife was totally against it because we’d have to move. She though we’d move to DC but I explained we’d likely be overseas and then she really freaked. So the interview was going well and the interviewer asked what position I’d want, case officer or operations officer. I said operations officer “because I wouldn’t have to travel as much.” The guy’s face froze and asked further why. Then I brought up my wife and that was it. I got a letter weeks later saying the did not have a position “commensurate” with my experience. Still happy that I got to do that interview.

When my daughter was in college, the letter agencies were recruiting. Her friend, who’s mom was a psychologist, filled out the form for the CIA. But he filled it out like he was a complete psychopath. Next day, two guys were at his dorm door telling him he had to be with them because he was “everything they look for in an agent”. He was terrified because it was a joke to him. They wouldn’t leave him alone! He had to get his parents to intervene. This is real. It’s definitely crazy stuff.

One thing I can attest to is that the ability to “beat” the PG is actually not just that the person is a pathological liar, but can also be the result(s) due to other factors - including those that the agency would look favorably upon (virtually every agent in the field, especially UC, needs to have the ability to mislead, impersonate, deceive/lie - and often fabricate information/details that sometimes could be quite complex &/or “situationally evolving.”). In such situations an agent must be able to “simulate” multiple scenarios for a certain situation in real-time/ a split-second AND develop a lie or deceiving response while also being sure to be able to repeat everything if questioned without any variances. Deception and omission is one thing, but ability to fabricate “truths” successfully requires more than a tac in the shoe or high-level consciousness meditation technique people have used to beat the PG with. . . It requires the ability to “appear” to the tester the same as a Patho-liar would, BUT to only do so on “tasked” questions (ones which someone like your POC agent would have sent you in with the directive to not be truthful about, which the PG tech/facilitator would not be aware of to ensure it doesn’t effect their delivery of questions (even the smallest difference in posture, facial expression, sentence rhythm ,speech tone etc can occur from “knowing”). So….if you can’t “beat the box” you’re likely not going to proceed as it’s a skill they will help recruits to hone/master, but they won’t waste assets on “50/50” shots.

the poly is designed to get you committed to your answers and illicit a written explanation regarding shown graph spikes. even repeating your name thru a 3rd time after waiting a while in a slightly different way can cause a spike in change (ie.you included the middle initial instead of the full middle name this time). the poly officer is in charge of your future career, or not. really depends if you can impress that operator as being normal and not special in some way that could be interpreted as a disqualifier. The invitation is sudden and you drop your life and go; or you don't. Termination can happen without explanation at any time.

And more. Frankly lots of agencies and lots of roles and positions in a lot of places. I had to take care of my health and decided to pursue other things more personal back home in Korea. But I still find this stuff interesting. In reverse hindsight a friend in Army Intelligence thought my role in nukes directly was the same mystery. So whatever... Service is Service.

In CIA cyber security the model is integrity, availability and confidentiality. And don't be afraid to make mistakes. But not just the CIA all the way down to the humble black pizzeria. Running a good pizzeria that's integrity. Running a good pizzeria that's availability running a good pizzeria confidentiality. It's ok to make mistakes even huuuuuuge mistakes. Just get it right eventually maybe. But don't stress stress is the enemy of good pizza. Yeah when I found out they had pizzeria being running out of the CIA. I was like wft. Really where?

I'm an intelligence officer for another intelligence agency - this was super interesting... my recruitment process took exactly 2 years! Interviews, exercises, written and verbal assessments, fitness assessments.... and then the vetting, the vetting was insane! They interviewed pretty much everyone I'd ever met, all my exes, family, colleagues, best friends, current partner and his parents, my finances were scutinised down to every last bank statement and credit card purchase, language skills with translators. When I finally suddenly got the call 'congratulations, you've been selected' I was at a point where I thought it was never going to happen, I nearly fell over in shock lol. But man, it was worth it, best work I've ever done :)

I was on active duty in the marine corps at the time and flew in that morning to do the polygraph and flew back that afternoon. He told me to relax and answer his questions and I just did exactly what he asked. And no. I was not asleep or on drugs. Just following directions

During the interview, which consisted of a walk around a park, where they vetted my knowledge and I vetted their tech stack. After learning they didn't use MVC frameworks, and still used PHP, I knew I wasn't interested, but still proceeded with the recruitment phases. The next was a questionnaire where I was asked if I did drugs in the past - 3 months before that I had just went to Burning Man, and let's just say the rest is history.

Physical exam is about the same or close. Where the military grinder for the 1st few months is very tough physically just to get to your 1st base... it's more mentally straining with IC. Edward Snowden broke physically in Army Basic but he apparently did quite well in the cyber realm for the IC as a civilian fed Boi. Each is a different demand and different lifestyle.
