Open Source Officer (Foreign Media Analyst)Needed

The Central Intelligence Agency seeks to fill a number of full-time Open Source Officer (OSO) positions. OSOs are the Intelligence Community's foreign media experts. They use foreign language and area knowledge to review and assess foreign open media sources, which include Internet sites, newspapers, press agencies, television, radio and specialized publications. OSOs collect intelligence from these media and deliver high-impact products to the U.S. foreign affairs community. 
OSOs develop in-depth knowledge of a broad range of foreign media and apply this knowledge to identify trends and patterns and write analytical products. On occasion, they may translate text, audio, and video information and select materials from the media for translation by independent contract translators. OSOs research and analyze the media environment in a particular country or region and prepare media analyses that inform customers of subtle relationships and trends in the media. 
We are seeking creative officers with a keen interest in foreign affairs, strong writing and analytical skills, a well-developed facility for reading and translating one or more of a broad range of foreign languages, and a working knowledge of the Internet.

Positions are in the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area, with limited opportunities for overseas travel and assignments. In addition to salary and benefits, OSOs are eligible to earn annual language 'bonus' pay based on in-house language proficiency testing.
