Wanted: A Few Good (Female) Spies for Israel
By Dave Goldiner January 04, 2017
No one keeps secrets better than the Mossad, Israel’s famed secret service.
But the spy agency is being very open about its hunt for a new crop of female agents.
“Wanted: Women of strength,” the ads announce in bold font splashed across a woman’s half-obscured visage. “We don’t care what you’ve done, we care about who you are!”
At the official website, applicants are invited to take a shot at jobs in the agency’s operations, intel, staff and technological departments.
It’s the first time the Mossad has made a specific public push for female recruits, according to the Times of Israel. Even without the new cohort, an estimated 40% of its agents are women.
