The D/CIA is nominated by the president and then confirmed by the Senate. If the D/CIA is incompetent and cannot perform his job who is responsible for "hiring" him?

No, the president doesn't have direct control over CIA policies, he does however have the ability and responsibility to remove the director if needed. The president is ultimately responsible for the person who holds that position and the consequences of that decision.

Is that reality enough for you or would you like to dedicate an entire thread to studying the nuances of executive control over varying federal agencies?
