Easiest way to see what is needed is go to companies looking for people & read the qualifications. That will make it pretty clear what you need.
Otherwise do a search; topic has been covered extensively.

Try proper spelling and punctuation for starters. If your resume reads like like your posts, you have trouble.

Post an introduction in the introduction forum. Flesh it out and tell us about you.

Read the forums using the search button. After you have spent two days or so reading, then ask your questions. Many before you have asked the same questions and have gotten very good advice.

Your second post clearly indicates that you have not researched anything.

j6collins... NO one is insulting you, i am also new to the this forum and by taking hardknocks advice by searching through past forums you will find answer's for many of the topics your looking for.

I found MANY of the answer's i was looking for by just doing that and if i didnt i would ask. These guys are here to help as much as they can they are all professionals. So take it or leave it

If you are insulted by being given direction on basic simple protocols, you are far from being ready to work any overseas contract in "high risk protection" much less a job swabbing out porta johns.

You have accomplished one of your goals, you are standing out from the others.

Let's try again, post a proper introduction in the proper thread. Use the search button by adding words or strings of words on the topic you are looking for, hit the search button and read the results.

If you are insulted by this and cannot or will not perform such a simple task, I'd advise you seek advice elsewhere as well as a different choice in jobs.

No need to respond, just follow the rules.

Dude, there is no way you searched. Just last week we had someone come on here asking the same question. He didn't have a background and wanted to know how he could get into this industry with no background and I more or less pointed him in the right direction.

I will make this abundatly simple for you:

Join the military under some kind of SOF (Special Operations Forces) contract. The 18 x-Ray program for the Army, Recon for the Marines and BUD/S for the Navy.

You don't have to be SOF to get onto every contract out there, but it helps.

Now go thrash yourself for being an integrity violator.
