Good evening Special Agent Jennings,

Talking to your interns and yourself reassured me that I wanted to pursue a career in law enforcement, specially with the DEA. I first met you at Rutgers Newark Career Fair for the Spring 2016 semester, you intrigued me in the many opportunities that the DEA has to offer and I am fully confident that I have the desired skills sets and abilities to intern with the DEA.

After the career fair yesterday, I was sure that I wanted to purse an internship and eventually career with the DEA since you told me that you could go abroad when job post open. That is something I look forward in my career. You even told me the DEA has offices in Quito, Ecuador. More over, the most intriguing fact that you told me was

    It was March 14, 2013, but I remember it like it was yesterday. Two weeks earlier, I hung up my navy-blue patrol uniform for a chance to go work narcotics with the big boys at the DEA. In just thirteen days I had seen enough cocaine to make Tony Montana envious, and was involved in an undercover operation which resulted in the arrest of a dirty cop. It was like being in a movie, and March 14, 2013, was no different.…

    If we had to pursue one of the first ten occupations we had ever imagined being as a child then I can guarantee you that I Veterinary Assistant wouldn’t have made the cut. As a child I was allergic to cats and afraid of most animals. With time I grew out of my allergies and became exposed to more animals to reduce the fear. My kid I only owned fish and frogs, and you can’t exactly do much with either of those animals so all I knew were caged animals at the zoo and my house.…

    Sounds pretty similar to the agency I work for but it sounds like you had a lot more training then we did. Oddly, I was never asked or told to shadow anyone however, I did have a few nurses shadow me. I asked these nurses about it and they told me they weren’t getting paid for their time and I thought that was a little bizarre. I’m guessing that many agencies do not pay people for training after hearing your experience was similar to…

Their perseverance, ability to react efficiently and decisively in difficult situations are some of the many qualities that Yale highlights and solidifies in its programs. Furthermore, shadowing one of the physician assistants who graduated from the Yale program gave me a better insight on the rigorously, expectations, and preparations of Yale PA program.…

    During the summer I worked at a nursing home to gain some experience in the healthfield. Working as a certified nursing assistant really helped me grow and it is one of the most rewarding jobs I’ve had, it also was very challenging at times. As I said before I struggle with anxiety, but working as a nursing assistant pushed me to overcome some of the fears I had of communicating. I learned really quick when working in a nursing home you strongly need the ability to have good communication skills because without it you can’t communicate with the charge nurses, the residents or the other C.N.A’s. Everyday that I worked there I used different forms of communications such as body language which I learned says a lot about what a person is feeling.…

    My parents used to fight each other when I was young. My father has a common characteristic which shows on almost all traditional Asia men and that is male chauvinism. When the wife is a traditional Asia woman, it builds up a happy family in the world. However, my mother has her own opinion so sometimes fighting became a common thing in our family. Even though when I grew up and they stopped fighting and started arguing, I still can remember the feelings – helpless, scared and anxious. Therefore, when I meet a client who has involved in domestic violence, my experience may affect my view and consultation for my clients. To be a professional social worker, I need to have an objective view and not taking any bias on clients. For example, I may feel sorry for the victims which represent me and my mother in my mind, and pursue them to make a decision that I recognize is good for them.…
