If you speak a language or two, are culturally aware and you are a first- or second-generation American, you have a good chance of getting a job at the nation’s spy agency. The agency is looking for Americans from a variety of ethnic backgrounds. Language skills are in the foreground.
The Central Intelligence Agency didn't announce how many people it wants to hire because it remains a secret organization. But the CIA said that last year, it has increased by 25% the number of officers skilled in a language other than English. That skill gets a pay bonus.
