Do FBI agents actually fly around in private jets, or go uncover to bring down gang leaders? Todd Palmer has worked in the FBI for over 21 years and gives us a first-hand account at what his experience has been like. He has degrees in German, International Relations and Political Science. He’s had a wide variety of assignments such as investigating national level street gangs, national and international drug trafficking organizations, organized criminal groups, civil rights matters and human trafficking. Todd also spent 15 years on an FBI SWAT team, mainly in the position of an assaulter or medic. He currently works as one of the FBI’s polygraph examiners. So if you’re looking to join the FBI, you might run into our guest! He administers the “lie detector” for anyone who wishes to join the FBI, current employees, or individuals who are alleged to be involved in criminal behavior. He shares all kinds of insights such as what the FBI looks for when hiring, how the process works, what opportunities you have within the FBI, and he tells us 3 things that make a great investigator.
