No kidding. They wanted to know if you were a patriot looking for adventure then head on over to the CIA. NEVER in my life have I ever seen an ad recruiting for the effing CIA. What on earth is Bush and his cabal doing to this country? I gets more bizarre every day.

1. They gutted it, and are looking for new lemmings
Just like every other govt. agency. My daughter graduated from G'town and wanted to become a diplomat, but then Bush came along.

She says: not no mo. Screw the Repubes.

2. I went to it
And it caters to children, or well, young adults. }( they're evil aren't they? D.C. Will take the title of "City of Spies away from Beirut in about 15 years.

4. They have had ads in the Washington Post for over a decade
They also have Human Resources Teams that conduct outreach on university campuses. The CIA needs all sorts of people, from communications engineers to Clandestine Services Intelligence Officers. How would you have them recruit? The classic "spot, assess, approach, recruit" is not for agency employees but for foreign agents that provide information contrary to their oiwn nations' interests.

5. Maybe they could
do something like google did? like hide 7 pics of Bin Laden in a picture of a crowd and put numbers on his shirt, or i guess the ad in the washington post is good too.

6. Look into who made the ad. I am sure it must be a good stock
and the CEO's gave to Bush. To bad these CEO's seem to run their Co. as bad as they do the country. I am sure Bush does not know that as he did the same when he ran a co. For get the baseball team, he did not run that he was the 'name' man in front and he played around. Great to be 'divine' in birth.
