Default Re: Psychological Profiling Jobs

Hey as Psychological profiling, also known as behavioural, criminal
personality, and criminal profiling, is a method used by criminal investigators
to develop profiles for murders, rapists, and other violent criminals who
haven't been apprehended.

Psychological Profiling

Psychological profilers not working for the FBI typically work as statisticians
or criminologists at universities and colleges.

They usually work part-time as profilers, but many are now profiling and
investigating on a full-time basis.

Requirement

Bachelor's degree in criminal justice, psychology or similar field; graduate
degree in forensic psychology is also an option

Job Duties

Criminal profilers review evidence at crime scenes to figure out how a crime
took place.

This evidence helps profilers determine details about a suspect such as the
person's height and the dominant hand the perpetrator used during the
crime.

Criminal profilers may also work on older unsolved cases to develop a suspect
profile in which law enforcement can use during an investigation.

Profilers may work within a police department, the federal government or
independently as a consultant.

They may research and analyze case files at the request of the police,
attorneys or the families of crime victims, and then offer their opinion on the
type of suspect they should be looking for.
