Why are you applying for Director of External Affairs?
I am quite content with how the D.E.A. has treated me since I joined, the solidarity in the D.E.A. is like no other, no matter what happens we all still band together whenever there is an issue. I would like to be able to repay that kindness by becoming a Director of D.E.A. as I truly believe I am capable of leading this department, and I hope to be able to continue the reputation and legacy that this department has.

What makes you suitable for Director of External Affairs?:
During my time as a D.E.A. Manager, I have been required to interact with multiple G.O.I.s as well as other leaders other departments that have taught me how to properly handle all the different kind of situations that pop up on a daily basis. I believe that my experience as a D.E.A. Manager has prepared me to take the next step and attempt to become a Director of the D.E.A.

What are the responsibilities of the Director of External Affairs in RP?:

- Overseeing the Department of External Affairs as a whole
-Working with S.A. and S.C. to ensure that the D.E.A. is working in the foundations best interest
-Talking with other leaders of the D.E.A. to remain up to date with relations and on site events

- Working with the other Senior CL4s of D.E.A. to appoint competent Special Agents and Managers

- Managing relations with other groups of interest such as CI and GOC
- Ensuring that the documents D.E.A. upkeeps and updating them as needed
- Punishing D.E.A. members accordingly when they break the CoC and CoE as well as server rules.
- Ensuring D.E.A. remains in good standing with the rest of the site.
Please give some lore about your Director of External Affairs character and what storylines they would be involved in:



*Beginning audio log*

*
an alarm is heard in the background, a man can be heard muttering to himself*

"
Where is it, damn it, where is it, I'm almost out of time! Come on, come on! AHA, there it is."

*The sound of a radio can be heard*

"I've located the file, moving to the rendezvous now."

*an explosion is heard*

"OH [Expletive Redacted]"

*A Cacophony of gunshots leaves the room ringing*

*Once the shooting ends, only the sound of slow, steady footsteps remain*

*A new voice can be heard, believed to be Director Jedidiah "Opossum" [redacted]*

" Is that my file?"

*A foundation issued radio transmitting is heard*

"One DC neutralized, all SOP are to begin sweeping the entrance zone immediately, the other deep cover must be found."

*The radio transmission ends*

. . .

"Well, lets see what the good people in S.A. know about me."

*
Papers rustling*


*15 minutes of silence are removed for brevity*

"Not much it seems."

*
The sound of a file landing on a desk proceeded by footsteps exiting the room are heard*

*End of audio log*
Jedidiah joined the S.C.P. Foundation from the U.I.U. after he was rescued from a Chaos Insurgency black site during a D.E.A. Operation to secure an anomaly. He joined the Department of External Affairs soon after his rescue, and over the course of his career climbed through the ranks to eventually achieve the position of Director within the department. Details from his time as a U.I.U. Operative still remain largely a mystery as many of the documents regarding his missions for the U.I.U are either highly secured within U.I.U. Sites, or were destroyed outright after his departure.
While usually this would usually create concern due to the lack of information regarding him, Jedidiah has shown absolute loyalty to the foundation and its goals, and has advanced much during his time as a member of the Department of External Affairs.

While I don't think you are a bad fit for this role by any regard, I believe that Betriv being your current competition holds more needed experiences in both roles and time being on the server.

Currently, your only whitelisted roles are all DEA-based, and this makes sense since you are going for DoDEA, but I believe from my personal experience of working with former DoDEA's and any departmental, or regimental lead, they should have experience in other parts of the server before directing a department, regiment, or anything else.

TL;DR

I think the most efficient and best leaders I have worked under, with, or against on the server are those who have experienced more than one field, and you would benefit from exploring other Jr CL4, GOI, Whitelisted CL3, or MTF roles.

I've known Jedidiah since he joined the server. He's always been very professional and a great person to be around. He is also very loyal to DEA and handles relations well.
