Procedure to Become RAW Agent

Will you please provide the Procedure to become RAW Agent ?

[Kiran Chandar]

Research & Analysis Wings does not hires applicants through direct recruitment process for agent post .

RAW is an independent body, it has the power to select applicants as they wish, sometime R & AW recruits there agents and officers from Army, IPS, IAS, IB, CBI, or sometimes directly from Universities (very rare case).

Like wise IAS, IPS etc. RAW service is known as RAS (Research and Ananlysis Service).

The whole tenure of a RAW agent is of nearly 2-5 years, after that they are allowed to back to there old service of weather IAS, IPS etc.

If you want to join RAW directly then I have two ideas striking in mind. 1) RAW recruit directly through Staff Selection Commission Organize, which a exam called Deputy Field officers Under cabinet secretary, there you can appear. And we know cabinet secretary is also an IAS officer, as because cabinet secretary is the highest post of IAS, he is who handles PM's office.

2) Applicants who TOP IAS exams are invited by RAS to join them. But its not so easy.

Training at RAS is very different from those of any other Security services.

Basic training consists of "PEP TALK" this is to increase the level of confidence of the officer.

Which contains various case studies of reputed National and International Security organisations etc.

Then comes new training of 1 or 2 years, which is normal.
