The CIA Office of the Inspector General has openings for auditors to conduct Information Technology (IT) audits of CIA programs and activities. IT Auditors perform information technology audits of the development, security, and internal controls of IT systems and applications particularly as they relate to auditable financial statements and mission support activities; the acquisition of IT systems; the use of IT in intelligence operations, and the practices for security management. Audits are conducted in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards. Most positions are in the Washington metropolitan area, but opportunities for foreign travel are available.


Minimum requirements include a bachelors' degree, preferably in information technology with some accounting and/or finance course work; or a degree in accounting, finance, business management with IT experience. Candidates should also have a solid academic record (GPA 3.0); excellent oral and written communication and interpersonal skills; strong analytical and research skills; and the ability to assemble and assimilate large quantities of data, discern key issues and draw reliable conclusions.

All applicants must successfully complete a thorough medical and psychological exam, a polygraph interview and an extensive background investigation. US citizenship is required.

To be considered suitable for Agency employment, applicants must generally not have used illegal drugs within the last twelve months. The issue of illegal drug use prior to twelve months ago is carefully evaluated during the medical and security processing.

Important Notice: Friends, family, individuals, or organizations may be interested to learn that you are an applicant for or an employee of the CIA. Their interest, however, may not be benign or in your best interest. You cannot control whom they would tell. We therefore ask you to exercise discretion and good judgment in disclosing your interest in a position with the Agency. You will receive further guidance on this topic as you proceed through your CIA employment processing.

To Apply:

Make a note of the position(s) that interest you, as you can apply for up to four positions in one application. DO NOT submit multiple applications; this will only slow the review of your application, and delay processing. Please read the Application Instructions carefully before you begin the online application process.
