"The U.S. Customs and Border Protection is hiring. And in huge numbers.
The agency is looking to fill about 1,200 positions for all three of its units – the Office of Field Operations, Border Patrol and Air and Marine Operations. And President Trump recently announced that in the next few years he wants to hire several thousand more agents to protect the nation’s border.
While the job is tough, and not for everyone, the union and recruiters believe that’s exactly why veterans are especially qualified. Veterans can receive special benefits, and do not need to be younger than 37 like other candidates.
‘They currently serve our country,’ said Adriana Carranza, a CBP recruiter, ‘and it’s any easy transition for them to continue serving our country with our agency’."

Not a bad place if you like the outdoors. Don't leave your job until you're completely done with the process. It is a long process, investigation, medical, physical fitness, polygraph gets most people. I know people who have been cleared by a three letter agency and have failed the polygraph, as a result, they don't get the job - none sense to me.
