Israel’s normally secretive Mossad spy agency came in from the cold this week, launching a Web site aimed at recruiting staff ranging from computer security specialists to English-speaking waiters and agents for “special tasks.”<\/p>\n
The site, which is available in both Hebrew and English, has a main page featuring a shadowy figure standing next to an Israeli flag and a link to a letter from Mossad Director Meir Dagan inviting “the best and most suitable to join us.”<\/p>\n
The new Web site, which replaces a rudimentary single-page site, includes a short history of the agency, a mission statement and an online employment application form. The Hebrew side of the site has a long list of jobs available with Israel’s external intelligence agency, including psychologists, teachers, translators, typists, construction engineers and security guards.<\/p>\n
According to the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, more than 1,500 people applied for jobs on Monday, the site’s first day in operation.<\/p>\n
One feature of the site proves Mossad is still as interested in gathering intelligence as it is in hiring new people: the “Contact Us” page invites users to submit “information that could be useful” to the agency and promises to protect the tipsters’ anonymity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
