ASIO – Australian Security Intelligence Organisation in their recent ads had removed their degree qualification requirement, which is a good thing as it may not necessary attract the possible best person for the job. Some are academic and some are practical. Spying is known to be the second oldest profession in the history of mankind. Well in the olden days there was no university, not everyone had access to learning and education like today, unless you were born into some noble or royal families. It is good to have a spy with a degree, but good to have option with or without a degree, as sometimes a person may not hold a degree in anything but could be great intelligence officer, analyst, linguist, thinker, leadership with great discerning and decision making capabilities. ASIO should look more for the people with the above skills.
ASIO’s aim is to increase its staff to about 1860 by 2010-11 with the new central office on its way in Russell Canberra and offices in every capital cities through out Australia. ASIO seems to have majority of young staff and most of them only been working for few years, between 1-3 years and lacking senior and experience staff. While it is peaceful Australia, ASIO needs to hire the best or trained the new ones to be the best either way it needs to speed up the organisation and be ready and prepared to meet the need to protect and secure Australia from any possible threat or attack.
Good news, ASIO will be given to carry firearms, ASIS will be given a green light to carry out paramilitary style operation(s) to complete their mission overseas and more power to our home brand AFP, olden days Commonwealth Police, but AFP is much better, bigger and wiser.
