FULL TIME POSITION AS AN
ARAB MIDDLE EAST RESEARCH SPECIALIST
22 February 2007
The 4th PSYOP Group (ABN), Ft. Bragg, NC has an opening for an Arab
Middle East research specialist with area expertise and proficiency
in Arabic. Candidates who have completed their Ph.D. degrees are
preferred, but ABDs and holders of masters degrees will be given
serious consideration. Previous experience in the Middle East is
extremely desirable. Strong research and writing skills are essential.
The opening for this position is in the GMI GG-132 series
(intelligence research specialist). Staff members do social science
research and analysis and write studies that are usually 20-40 pages
long. Information is gathered from both classified and unclassified
sources. The individual selected will work with a team of regional
specialists who all have advanced degrees, language proficiency, and
extensive on-the-ground regional experience.
The position requires expertise in one of the social sciences as well
as a deep understanding of the issues and culture of this region. The
position requires proficiency in Arabic on both the listening and
reading comprehension portions of the Defense Language Proficiency
Test (or the Foreign Service Institute test) and a willingness to
travel periodically in the United States and abroad. The candidate
must also be a US citizen with the ability to obtain a secret
security clearance.
Hiring will be at the GG-9 or GG-11 levels, depending on the
successful applicant’s qualifications. Promotion is possible to the
GG-12 level following the completion of training and after
demonstrating satisfactory performance. Promotion is from GG-9 to
GG-11 with no GG-10 in between, and then from GG-11 to GG-12. The
starting salary of a GG-9 is now $45,106 and for a GG-11 is $54,574.
A fully qualified GG-12 starts at $65,411. Step increases over time
can bring the GG-12 salary up to a maximum of $85,037.

database in order to be considered for this government position.
