I like this kind of job as it test my ability to be able to be on time to report to the crime scene and to be a careful person when handling chemicals.

Qualifications/Experience needed for my career

What are the requirements needed for my job is to at least a 4 year degree in science while others only require an 'O' Level Certificate. Generally, if you want to work in a crime laboratory as a Criminalist you will need at least a 4 year degree in science (such as Biology or Chemistry). If you want to be a Crime Scene Technician you usually need less formal education. Some agencies require you be a sworn police officer before becoming a Crime Scene Investigator.

Regardless of what the education and experience are for the job you are seeking, there are some things that I can prepare for the job and the interview. As a person who interviews candidates for law enforcement jobs, agencies are inclined to give jobs to those who have a clear understanding of the job they are applying for, and have done something to prepare themselves for the job.

When I want to apply for the job in future, I must be sure that I do my homework, which is learning about the agency and the community it serves. A favorite question asked in most of the job interviews is "What do you know about our department and what do you know about our community?" I must be prepared to answer this kind of common typical questions when I want to apply for my job.

More information on my career

I watched a short video clip during my English Lesson talking about "HEARTWARE" it is a National Education video. These are the comments I felt after seeing the video. I feel very secure living in Singapore as the nation is protected and I also feel a sense of belonging to my nation. Singapore is being constantly promoted to other countries so that we can gain in economy wise. It binds us as Singaporeans together in one harmony and nation and we play apart in this growth in one way or another, and I believe in Singapore.

My career path that I've chosen is to be work as a Crime Scene Investigator. My passion for this job started when I watched a TV Drama series known as CSI or Crime Scene Investigation. The reason I chose this is because I'm very interested in solving mysteries in crimes and I like to deal with chemical experiments as I find it very fascinating and interesting. You need to have a lot of courage to do such a job in order to bring justice back to where it should belong to.

I hope you know more about my career and that I will know more of yours too. Thank You!
