Advancement Prospects

Polygraph examiners in civil service positions can advance through various job levels and eventually hold management jobs. Examiners who work for private security agencies can advance to such executive positions as director of operations. Polygraph examiners who are employed by business and industry in security positions may become supervisors and eventually head their department. In addition, some experienced polygraph examiners start their own agencies or work as security consultants or security systems specialists.
