• ✓Completion of a formal intelligence school course, typically three or more months full time, resulting in an Intelligence MOS such as All-Source, IMINT, SIGINT, or HUMINT.
• ✓Understanding of the basic intelligence cycle and the TCPED process.
• ✓Ability to type at least 32 words per minute with 90% accuracy without looking at the keyboard.
• ✓Ability to accurately distinguish red, green, blue, and yellow on video screens.
• ✓Ability to work a rotating 12-hour shift schedule, 7am–7pm or 7pm–7am, alternating days and nights monthly, including weekends and holidays.

• ▸You stay calm and accurate when the pace is high, the timeline is compressed, and the details matter.
• ▸You communicate clearly, especially when handing off information across shifts, teams, or mission partners.
• ▸You are hungry to learn—FMV, imagery, sensors, culture, reporting standards, and the larger intelligence picture.
