Front Line Defender

The U.S. Border Patrol is a dynamic and challenging law enforcement agency responsible for safeguarding the nation's borders.

• Detection of individuals suspected of violating immigration and customs laws requires exceptional observation skills, intelligence gathering, and critical thinking to prevent illegal entry into the country.

To be successful in this role, one must possess strong communication skills to effectively question suspects, as well as physical fitness to navigate varied terrain in pursuit of violators. The ability to work independently or collaboratively within a team environment is essential for providing excellent support services during peak operational periods or emergency situations.
