Think You’re Too Old for ICE? Think Again!
Wake up and smell the coffee, folks! Haystack's back at it again, breaking down the latest scoop on ICE's recruitment policies—yep, you heard that right! So, they’re throwing out the age limits like yesterday's leftovers! Forget the days when you had to be under 37 or 40 to join the cool kids' club. Now, if you've got the spirit of a rebel and a heart for public safety, they want YOU, no matter how many candles are on your birthday cake! I mean, who knew being a border agent could be a ‘get-off-my-lawn’ kind of gig?
But hold up! Before you start polishing your badge and practicing your best ‘You’re under arrest’ line, let’s chat about the nitty-gritty. The application process isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. Think medical screenings, drug tests, and, oh yeah, physical fitness assessments. So, if you thought binge-watching your favorite series was a fitness plan, time to hit the gym, my friends! They’re ramping up their recruitment because Congress threw some cash their way, and they’re not just looking for young whippersnappers—mature agents are now in the game. It’s time to show those youngsters how it’s done!

Good morning.
Speaker A:It's Haystack.
Speaker A:And ICE is accepting applicants for agents that are older than in the past.
Speaker A:They have removed age limits to some degree.
Speaker A:They previously had caps on some positions requiring candidates to be under 37 or under 40.
Speaker A:And the agency is actively now encouraging Americans with a dedication to public safety and upholding to the law to apply regardless of their age.
Speaker A:Their process is pretty rigorous.
Speaker A:They have medical screenings, drug tests, tests, and physical fitness assessments.
Speaker A:And so they are removing the age cap, the age limit, to try to recruit more border and immigration enforcement officials.
Speaker A:They've had new funding from Congress, and so they're just trying to get their hiring numbers up.
Speaker A:And, you know, you think about it, maybe it's.
Speaker A:Maybe it's time for them to put out a recruitment advertisement.
Speaker B:You're at the age when you know how to get things done.
Speaker B:Now, you may think this is an ad for Viagra.
Speaker B:Nope.
Speaker B:This is a recruitment ad for ice.
Speaker B:We're now hiring agents of a certain age.
Speaker B:Ask your doctor if you're healthy enough to raid a Home Depot parking lot.
Speaker B:And if the thought of rounding up people just because they have a fun accent gives you a situation lasting longer than four hours, give us a call.
Speaker B:This is the age of taking action.
Speaker B:ICE apply today.
