Criminal Justice Degree

[kc3]

I graduated 4 years ago with an AAS in Criminal Justice. My problem is "I can't find a job using this degree." I have looked high and low and the only job out there that I could apply it to would be a police officer. Does anyone have any ideas of what I could apply this degree to? Or know of any sites? Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.

This is my major also. I have bee looking at the CIA, FBI, US FEDERAL MARSHAL, and secret service. I don't remember your state off hand, but try one of these. I know I will when I graduate. You can't be over 34 .

None of those agencies will even give you a second look without a 4-year degree and then only 3% of the applicants are ever hired. Other agencies, including the NSA and NATO Security forces, require a master's degree.

If you don't want to be a cop then go back to school.

How about a store cop or small town cop.Every state has different criteria for police officer certification.I know a dept like Arlinton Tx requires a 4 year degree but Granbury Tx does not.Just check around.
