The FBI is looking for linguists who are fluent in a variety of languages. If you know anyone who can speak, read, and write a foreign language at a professional level and is interested in working as a linguist for the FBI, please ask him/her to apply online at http://www.fbijobs.gov/linguists.
Linguists with the FBI begin as independent contractors and may be offered permanent employment after an initial trial period. Linguists responding to this canvass could work in San Francisco or in any major field office of their preference. Contract Linguists usually work full-time (40+ hours a week), but we will consider applicants who are willing to work as little as 20 hours a week.
Please note that the hiring process requires testing and a background check process that can be lengthy. In addition, the FBI requires that linguists speak, read, and write English well. (not perfectly, but well.) Applicants must be U.S. citizens, and must have lived in the United States for three out of the last five years.
