MEMORANDUM FOR: Chairman,, CIA Career Service Board
FROM: Chairman, Professional Selection Panel
SUBJECT: Selection of Permanent Career Staff
1, In response to a request from the CIA Career Service Board,
the Professional Selection Panel has devised what the Panel believes
to be a satisfactory mechanism for selection of career employees.
This mechanism and the procedures for its use are set forth in the
attached memorandum, subject as above, dated 10 November 1953Q
2. Your attention is called to paragraph 6 of the attached
memorandum., entitled "Application for Permanent Appointment to the
Career Staff." I believe the Board will wish to give careful con-
sideration to two questions raised by this paragraph: (1) "Should
application for appointment to the career staff be mandatory or
voluntary?" and (2) "Should all personnel presently on duty be
automatically appointed to the career staff or should they go through
some suitable selection procedure?"
3. If the Board concurs in the selection process prescribed
in the attachment, preparation of suitable regulations based thereon
can be undertaken at once.
