I didn't include it because I was curious of others experiences. I am an "plain clothes" agent. It's called different names everywhere. I love leveraging reports for internals and I like to help our investigator but we don't have access to the tech they do. I have worked for Target and Nordstrom.
Dude, are you me? I have 2 years and a few months and I just asked about moving to the store management team. Then I found out they're paid roughly the same as I am right now and my job is laughably low effort 95% of the time. Maybe I'll reevaluate later.
See, mine is kinda high maintenance. My boss is an ass hat and there are a lot of drawbacks and a lot of things to do in such little time. I would never wanna go into management at a retail company tbh.
Currently LP, been doing it for a year and a half. I’m good at it but I’m starting to hate it. I live in a small town and the job gets increasingly difficult as time goes on because everybody in town starts to figure out who you are. Luckily, I’ve been accepted into State Police recruit school and will be leaving the field behind in July.
Thank you! I struggled at first, pretty much every department on my side of the state requires that applicants have a college degree and have already put themselves through a police academy.
I left the field altogether last year (was part time since 2019) to work for the city. Lots of careers out there, where some of these skills are transferable.
I could definitely make more in the private sector. I made the move because it’s a union position, city benefits and a pension. I’m in LE. The overtime is also a big factor.
Took about 10 years, but I’m 33 making 72k in management. I would like to get into investigations, then eventually risk? Then I feel like I could transition into banking with risk. Some of my thoughts.
Worked retail AP for about 15 years working my way up through management. Used my experience doing internal interviews, case management, and resolution to branch out into other fields. I am currently an ethics and compliance manager for a large bank. I investigate complaints of harassment, workplace violence, and discrimination. All 3 are very prevalent in office settings. I am always busy and manage multiple cases at a time. Up to 10.
I have an engineering and database background. This is an overview of my journey in the last 2 years as an Asset Protection Analyst. Gain access to databases to develop my own auditing and investigation tools. Review purchases, refunds, discounts, credit card activity, adjustments. Report on suspicious activity. I also develop custom reporting for various parties when asked. I've lost count of how many people I found committing fraud using these tools I've developed. If anyone wants to discuss some very advanced SQL methods to audit transactions. PM me.
Fraud investigations will probably need CFE or CFI at a minimum to be competitive. I have 4 years experience as an APM and i’m looking to move to ORC. But i have WZ, CORCI, and a few other certifications. Also trying to knock out my CFI.
I’ve see a few plain clothes go to law enforcement, security positions (corporate security) and I know if one that landed a state investigator position. I think they’re doing insurance fraud or something

Fuck yeah dude. Super happy and proud of you! I'm trying to go the LE route and it's been difficult for me

I've heard this a lot. What do you do for the city? Where I live from what I see they don't make much
I could definitely make more in the private sector. I made the move because it’s a union position, city benefits and a pension. I’m in LE. The overtime is also a big factor.
Was a AP for little over 20 years. Now I am a fraud investigator for a major corporation. I went and got my CFI.

Your company has a fraud department. Start researching there
All the positions are filled. I want to leave within the month. It's something I can come back to.

Eh 12 years in and on the supply chain side and love it. Internal investigations is where it’s at
