Changes to hiring rules have been made by the FBI. These changes affect how applicants who have engaged in certain behaviors are considered. Previously, some behaviors automatically disqualified applicants. Now, the context of the behavior will be taken into account in some cases.

The goal of these changes is to help victims of certain acts. They can now apply for jobs without fear of being automatically rejected.

Further information on these changes is available from the source, including details on the hearing where the FBI director addressed the issue.
