That's a must.
Because most times applicant-- applications are asking for a degree and experience.
I would also suggest seeking an internship to also become involved with--
that's another way to get hands on experience.
It's also another way to develop-- to network with in your field.
So the power of networking is amazing.
It develops relationships, it developed my-- it has developed my skill set.
It has also allowed balance for my life as well.
I learned my internship through networking.
I spoke with a police officer at my church and shared with him that I was
about to finish my degree and I knew I did not want to be a police officer and I asked him
if he had any suggestions for me.
And then that's when he suggested the law enforcement agency which I did not know of.
And that's how I began to start seeking out the internship.
