What is a deportation officer?
 As a deportation officer with ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), you will uphold U.S. immigration law at, within, and beyond our borders. Your work is critical to the enforcement of immigration law against those who present a danger to our national security, are a threat to public safety, or who otherwise undermine the integrity of our immigration system.

According to Ayeisha Ramirez, a deportation officer in NYC, "I work with a Fugitive Operations Unit, which is a field unit. Most of my day is spent out in the field, locating fugitives who either are convicted criminals, sexual offenders, gang members, murderers." Hear more on episode 4 of the Careers at ICE podcast!

 Okay, so what's a detention and deportation officer?
ERO detention and deportation officers conduct legal research to support decisions on removal cases and assist attorneys in representing the government in court actions. Detention and deportation officers work with other federal law enforcement officials to identify, locate and arrest aliens and are responsible for ensuring the physical removal of aliens from the United States. Detention and deportation officers also prepare, present and defend cases at removal proceedings. Learn more
According to Supervisory Detention and Deportation Officer Christian Rodriguez, "I’ve had quite a few positions with INS and now Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and each one of them has shared a wealth of knowledge and a lot of rewards throughout the years." Listen to the full podcast
