I don’t know, seems like i’ve read quite a few stories over the years about Secret Service guys having crazy parties with drugs and hookers. Focus on that for your recruiting materials.

I had a neighbor once who was Secret Service. Nice guy. Kept his mouth shut about his work.

…and maybe languages, diverse cultures, debating skills, critical and independent thinking, good manners…
I’d think being a fully rounded being would help with a job like that. Sometimes all it takes to defuse a critical situation is a competent assessment and le mot juste.
(That being said, I’m suddenly reminded on the entrance tests for new agents in Men In Black for some reason. Off to Youtube, BRB.)
