What you did in the Army isn’t as important as being in the Army in general. Law enforcement is looking for folks with specific skills. Almost any MOS will give you those skills. Military law enforcement is so completely different than civilian LE that being an MP will not help you. Besides most MP’s do not do law enforcement duties anyway. <br /><br />Getting a 4 year degree will help you get hired. All Federal agencies require a bachelors degree to qualify.<br /><br />Find a MOS that looks interesting, and talk to folks who actually do the job before you sign the papers. Take advantage of the education programs offered by the Army and get your degree while you are still in.

I am in no way saying that you cannot do it but you have to really want it and keep practicing practicing practicing. Federal and civilian law-enforcement agencies do not necessarily seat out soldiers that were in the military police position because they do not want to re-train your thought process. Speak with a recruiter and then get a second opinion SFC Private RallyPoint Member Thu, 26 Jul 2018 15:08:35 -0400 2018-07-26T15:08:35-04:00 Response by Capt Henry Mixon made Sep 15 at 2018 12:47 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-are-good-options-for-an-mos-that-could-open-doors-for-the-fbi-or-an-intelligence-agency-or-even-cid-after-i-get-out?n=3966367&urlhash=3966367 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Also consider CID, Criminal Investigations Division.

Besides CID I have a feeling that any could lead you towards the FBI if you learn and take steps that they desire from applicants. Infantry cant be beat from a tactics standpoint however may lack in administrative work... what aspects would you like to glean from said Army career besides being generally headed towards a three letter agency job? 2LT Brian L.
