The following unclassified information is provided on DI (~t/
human. resources:
o The DI's analytic strength increased by 28% during
the last 10 years.
o The relative size of the DI's analytic community has
remained the same during this period--approximately
430 of tatal DI positions--because of simultaneous
growth in other areas of the Directorate.
o Name schools (e.g. Ivy League institutions) are among
those providing the DI with new analysts. The
majority of new analysts, however, have come from
major state universities. This represents no change
-from 10 years earlier.
o The DI's analytic staff is relatively young. Nearly
half are under 35 years of age.
c Most new DI analysts have had brief work experience,
but not ger~erally.ir. the analytic area.
c ThE~ present crop of DI analysts has had greater
experience with c~~erseas travel {e.g. personal
travel, study abroad) than those hired earlier in the.
decade.
o Test scores are higher for recent hires in analytic
aptitudes, interpersonal skills, and work attitudes
than in the. late 1970s.
o More rer.ent analytic entrants have master's degree
than in earlier years.
o we recruited a greater number of Pr,.D.'s during the
early 1980s when market conditions were favorable to ~
R;er.cy firing in this advanced academic area.
c Entrants with language capabilities have dropped , ? ~ ~~
approximately 10`x,. from those entrants ir. the late
1970x. (de have capabilities in more the 60 ~~
languages, witl, substantial expertise in French;
Spanish, German, and Pussian.
c G~'e are having some success in hiring difficult-te-
obtain specialists, such as economists, over what
we v:ere able to hire: early in the decade, largely
because cf targeted-recruiting by the DI.

o We have an active Graduate Fellows Program that is
being used with good results as a DI recruitment
device.
o The DI's attrition
rate
for analysts is lower t:zan I
in the-past. The
high
qualifications that analysts
'
have brought with
them
has resulted in a well-
qualified analytic corps.
o In recent years, tr~ere has been a greater attempt to
provide higher. graded positions, for analysts .who wish
to remain analysts rather than move into management
in order to move to higher levels. There are
.opportunities in the. Senior Intelligence Analyst
Program, and one-third of any new SI8 positions
requested are expected to be designated for experts.
o Roughly one-third of the DI non-personal service:;
budget i.s for ADP reso~~rces .
o OIR's ADP resources are approximately 60% of the
Directcrate's ADP funds.,
o There has been no PES study on ADP since the 25 July
19 ~~ 5 report .
