Little exposure of any information, potential to garner the specific personnel through vetting…it is a workable arrangment that goes back several decades…worked then and will do the same now.

I think that this is a great idea, exposure is good. That being said, I would be concerned that there would be an influx of applicants that think they are applying for Jack Bauer’s job; thus slowing down the hiring process for serious applicants.

As a U.S Veteran studying overseas, my exposure to recruitment drives, etc. is quite limited. Does anyone know of any U.S Govt. programs (recruitment) that are available for people in my situation? Any guidance would be helpful!

“I like it! Am dusting of my resume and sharpening my interview skills.”

“I hear these spots all the time on commercial radio while working. They are well done, and if I tell you what I do for a living, I will have to kill you.”

“Walk-ins are suspect enough. To advertise openly is just a disaster waiting to happen. Just bad ju-ju in so many ways.”

“Considering my radio listening is limited to about 10 minutes in the morning (when/if I set my alarm) and/or if I have the radio when driving, I’ve yet to hear these spots. Are they advertising on NPR?”

“One one to find out who is really qualfied and listening to these ads at the same time. Who is the targeted audience?”

“I think it’s a good idea that doesn’t expose anything – you need people that can blend into whatever environment they’re placed. Whatever direction you feel though, please don’t give credit for this idea to Panetta – the CIA has had national recruiting campaigns in place well before he got appointed. I remember seeing commercials on the Discovery Channel years ago as an example.”
