00:00:06.100 --> 00:00:07.800
These are challenging times,

2
00:00:07.900 --> 00:00:09.100
and for the people who are

3
00:00:09.200 --> 00:00:10.200
helping our country meet

4
00:00:10.300 --> 00:00:11.100
those challenges --

5
00:00:11.200 --> 00:00:12.000
especially the challenge of

6
00:00:12.100 --> 00:00:14.100
homeland security --

7
00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:15.700
these are times of tremendous

8
00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:16.900
professional opportunities.

9
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:19.000
As an intelligence analyst with the

10
00:00:19.100 --> 00:00:20.700
Department of Homeland Security,

11
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:21.900
it's my job to identify

12
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:23.300
potential threats to the

13
00:00:23.400 --> 00:00:24.300
United States.

14
00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:25.800
As a recent law school

15
00:00:25.900 --> 00:00:27.300
graduate, I've just started at

16
00:00:27.400 --> 00:00:28.600

17
00:00:28.700 --> 00:00:29.700
already receiving more

18
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:30.900
interesting projects and more

19
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:32.300
responsibility than most of

20
00:00:32.400 --> 00:00:33.000
classmates.

21
00:00:33.100 --> 00:00:34.500
As a contract specialist, I

22
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:35.000
buy goods and services

23
00:00:35.100 --> 00:00:36.600

25
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:39.200
a K-9 officer, it's my

26
00:00:39.300 --> 00:00:40.600
responsibility to find hidden

27
00:00:40.700 --> 00:00:41.900
threats in vehicles, on persons,

28
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:43.000
and in packages.

29
00:00:43.100 --> 00:00:45.100
As a new employee, I feel

30
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:46.500
that the Department gives me

31
00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:47.500

00:01:14.100 --> 00:01:15.900
DHS is America's newest and most

49
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:17.500

60
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:37.000
As a veteran, I wanted to

61
00:01:37.100 --> 00:01:38.500
continue to serve my country,

62
00:01:38.600 --> 00:01:39.900
and I thought to myself, "what

63
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:41.300
better way than to be a part of

64
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:42.700
Homeland Security?"

65
00:01:42.800 --> 00:01:44.500
Interpreter: As an attorney,

70
00:01:51.300 --> 00:01:52.000
and practices.

00:01:52.100 --> 00:01:53.000
The Department of

72
00:01:53.100 --> 00:01:54.000

73
00:01:54.100 --> 00:01:56.000
sophisticated technologies --

74
00:01:56.100 --> 00:01:57.300
like this night-vision device

75
00:01:57.400 --> 00:01:58.400
to detect terrorist threats

76
00:01:58.500 --> 00:01:59.500
along the U.S. border --

77
00:01:59.600 --> 00:02:00.700
and it's my job to maintain

78
00:02:00.800 --> 00:02:01.600
