Can Women become Investigators?

ABSOLUTELY!

Women make excellent Investigators and are welcome in the Industry. There may be a perception that you need to have a Police Background to be a good Investigator, but I am writing this precisely to debunk that assertion.

Policemen and women make no better Investigators than anyone else. In fact in a lot of cases it is a drawback.

You need an enquiring mind, a reasonably accurate memory and many other skills most Police Officers have no idea about. Women tend to bring a more subtle approach to Investigations and in terms of surveillance, no one looks twice at a female sitting alone in a car, but a lone male is suspicious right off the bat.

I know of several women working in the industry and seemingly flourishing, they have set up their own businesses and are out there doing it. So, what's stopping you?

But most of all you need the desire to want to do this and the ability to learn and adopt the lessons learnt.

Send me an e-mail at investigations@drmgroup.com.au and I will address your specific questions on this issue and tell you why being a woman is no draw back in this industry.
