Questions about the Office of Attorney General-Special Agents/Narcotics Agents

[Street_Cop50]

Hey everyone,

Just wondering if anyone on these forums is an Special Agent or Narcotics Agent with the Penn Attorney General or has worked with them/for them in the past? From what I read on the website, it sounds like a good career path and I wanted to get more info.

Thanks!

From my understanding, you have to have several years of field experience before you have any chance of landing a position with the AGs office doing Narcotics/Inverstigations. Anybody I know who was either hired by them or at least advanced in the hiring process had many years experience as a police officer, usually working as a detective or in a drug unit. I have heard it is extremely competitive. I'm sure an agent could tell you mare than I can, but I'm gonna guess they'll tell you to start out just like your username suggests....as a street cop. Good luck.
