EQ: What is the most important skill to have to become a successful criminal investigator?

Answer 1

1: I believe one of the most important skills you need to become a successful criminal investigator is communication skills. Though it is a vague skill that can work in most job forces, I do believe that it is extremely important for this job specifically.
2: One experience that showed me the importance of this was when i began my service learning, one of the investigators took me to get my finger prints done. He was very personable, and could convey what he wanted to everyone with ease. There was another police officer who was extremely timid and had a hard time getting people to cooperate.
3:My service learning, and interviews. With all three every person has said that communication skills are an asset to making a person successful in the investigation world.

  1. I think your answer about a broad knowledge of types of crimes is better. Communication is probably also one, but it is one of those answers that kind of fits anything. Make sure you specify more in the broad range of understanding answer.
