You can work here even if you don't know karate and don't look good in a tuxedo.

WASHINGTON — The CIA has scrapped its ho-hum test that steered job applicants toward mysterious careers and devised one that's cloaked in jest.
Invisibility or ESP? Jet pack or amphibious sports car? Walk the Great Wall of China or sip Champagne at a New York gala?
The results from the CIA's personality quiz are just a few clicks away, diagnosing test takers as daring thrill-seekers, thoughtful observers, curious adventurers, innovative pioneers or impressive masterminds.
The CIA wants to hire them all.

What's with the Humor?
Is there a super (spy) thoughtful observer innovative pioneer mastermind that the CIA is looking to copy?
Hey guys... There is only one CigMan
But seriously folks ...
Is Jerry Seinfeld a super spy? with incredible powers of observational humor? Is the whole Kramer thing a psychology operation?
Is overthrowing governments for corporations funny?
Will quirky funny guy (and gal) assassins be running ops?
Is this a boom to the movie industry?
Is the NSA takeover of the CIA going that well! <let's hope so>
