Looking: Defence/Government/Security job/career
I know this is a long shot, but the depth of knowledge on this board never ceases to amaze me.
I will be graduating with a doctorate in Military and Strategic Studies sometime this winter. (Date is dependent on finishing the dissertation, organizing committee, etc.) I know that many of the jobs in my arena have a long hiring process. As such, no hurt in getting as many feelers out as possible.
I have been looking at job within NATO, OSCE, US State Dept (American citizen) and a few other government agencies. In addition I have applied to numerous positions with the Afghan PRTs, both through the State Dept and BAE. I am also in the midst of the FSOT with the State Dept. (Took and passed it last year, was not selected for interviews, so round two)
In addition I have registered a CV, and am monitoring job vacancies at a number of defense aerospace companies such as SAAB, EADS, Boeing and BAE.
Ideally I'd like to get back to Europe, hence the heavy European bias. In addition most of my research is on European security topics, specifically Sweden and the Nordic countries.
I realize this is rather vague, please feel free help me narrow/expand/etc. I have a CV available if you feel you can help out.
Flying the Bluehouse colors in Western Canada! Let me know if you want some rad skis!!
"He is god of snow; the one called Ullr. Son of Sif, step son of Thor. He is so fierce a bowman and ski-runner that none may contend! He is quite beautiful to look upon and has all the characteristics of a warrior. It is wise to invoke the name of Ullr in duels!"
-The Gylfaginning
