The Internal Revenue Service is hiring special agents who shouldn’t be afraid of using “deadly force.”
Criminal Investigation, the law enforcement branch of the IRS, is looking for agents across the US who can combine “accounting skills with law enforcement skills to investigate financial crimes,” according to a job posting on its website.
Special Agents are duly sworn law enforcement officers who are trained to ‘follow the money.'”
These agents investigate financial crimes, money laundering, tax-related identity theft, and terrorist financing efforts. They are the only IRS workers who are permitted to carry and use firearms.
Required to work a minimum of 50 hours a week, always on call even during vacations and weekends, these agents will need to be fit so they can “effectively respond to life-threatening situations,” per the listing.
The agents must be prepared to protect themselves or others “from physical attacks at any time and without warning and use firearms in life-threatening situations” and shouldn’t be afraid to “use force up to and including the use of deadly force.”
