This career appeals to me because I have always wanted to pursue a career in the criminal justice system, but with a psychology-related path. This job is the best of both worlds and is incredibly interesting to me. A forensic psychologist can work with law enforcement to evaluate and profile subjects, evaluate jury behavior, and can also provide expert testimony in court. Most of the time, they conduct searches, conduct interviews, and determine whether a suspect is fit to stand trial. Typical work settings for a criminal psychologist include correctional facilities, mental health centers, court systems, law enforcement agencies, universities, and private practice. A forensic psychologist may be self-employed and work as an independent practitioner with courts, prisons, parole agencies, or other branches of the criminal justice system. The average salary for a forensic psychologist is 86,510. This salary is what I would like to earn in this position. Plus, I have experience under my belt that the salary will increase. The most popular higher education for this job would be the doctorate. Although some universities offer a master's degree in psychology with specific training in the criminal justice field, a doctorate is ideal. Additionally, earning a doctorate makes you more competitive in the field. There aren't many doctorates
