US Secret Service launches recruitment efforts at Iona University

Iona University has partnered with the U.S. Secret Service for campuswide recruitment sessions.

U.S. Secret Service agents spoke last week to six criminal justice classes about career opportunities available within the agency, as well as internship possibilities, agency qualifications and duties. The special agents recounted their own academy experiences, providing valuable insights and advice so students are well-prepared for the rigorous process.

Applicants from other Westchester and Hudson Valley colleges and universities will be welcome to visit Iona New Rochelle campus to discuss recruitment opportunities in the next recruitment sessions in January. College seniors will be eligible to apply beginning Jan. 1, 2024.

“We are excited to partner and serve as a recruiting hub for the Secret Service and see it as a great fit for some of our students and the agency,” said Matthew Cardin, assistant vice president for enrollment management and career initiatives at Iona University. “We look forward to seeing the placements that will come from this partnership overtime.”
