My first response is always "anything you want to do!" because I do believe our LEOs are capable of being successful in any career they set their minds to. Leaving law enforcement doesn't mean leaving behind a meaningful career. Your skills in leadership, critical thinking, and crisis management are in high demand across various industries.

Cybersecurity: Use your law enforcement background to help organizations protect their digital assets from cyber threats. 4.

Consulting: Offer your expertise in law enforcement, security, or investigations to companies in need of specialized knowledge. 6. Education and Training: Share your experience by training the next generation of law enforcement professionals or by providing corporate training in safety, security, and crisis management. 7. Nonprofit and Advocacy Work: Advocate for causes close to your heart, such as veterans' affairs, criminal justice reform, or community safety.

Did you recently graduate from college with a degree in Digital Forensics? Are you looking for a job? I'm not hiring right now, but as a hiring manager, here are a few tips: 1. A lot of forensicators end up working in eDiscovery. 2. Learn about the similarities and differences between eDiscovery and Forensics and be prepared to answer questions about them in the interview. 3. Research the company, and everyone you interview with in advance. If you don't do online research, then you've gotten the wrong degree. If you've gotten to the interview phase, and you haven't invested enough time in the above, then you've wasted your time and won't prove to the hiring manager that you really want this job. Best of luck! #eDiscovery #DFIR

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Are you brave enough to explore your data sources and confront the potential horrors? Imagine uncovering GDPR breaches or negative conversations between recruiters and candidates hiding in the shadows. 👾 Other horrors include jobs you had but didn’t fill, only to later discover (perhaps on LinkedIn) that the person who eventually got the job was in your database all along. How disappointing is that? Or times when you were asked to find someone but couldn’t, only for another agency to step in, make the match, and collect the fee. Sometimes, the scariest things are right under our noses! It’s always best to know your data inside and out, so there are no hidden monsters lurking.
