Subject: U.S. Department of State Opportunity
If you are a motivated college student looking to learn more about
internship and employment opportunities through the U.S. Department of
State, then this message is for you!
The U.S. Department of State is hosting a unique mentoring opportunity for
students to learn about the variety of internship and employment options
available through their network. We are helping them identify undergraduate
or graduate students to participate in their day-long mentoring program on
Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Spots are very limited, and interested students
should email Joanne Wilson at jwilson at nfb.org by Thursday, July 16, 2009.
This event will expose students to a variety of Department professionals
with and without disabilities, to the Department’s history/mission, to
careers in civil/foreign service, and to intern, hiring, and recruitment
programs in the Department.
All participants must be U.S. citizens, full-time undergraduate or
graduate/law students with at least a 3.0 G.P.A. on a 4.0 scale, and have a
targeted disability. All participants will need to arrange and pay for their
own transportation to and from the Department. However, lunch is expected
to be provided to student participants. While the Department's mission is
one of foreign affairs, the Department's workforce consists of thousands of
employees in either the Civil Service (CS) or in the Foreign Service (FS),
and these employees’ educations and professions vary widely. Accordingly,
student participants who are interested in or pursuing any of a variety of
studies or professions are welcome, including but not limited to the
following: Business Management, Economics, Finance, Human Resource
Management, Information Technology/Computer Science, International
Affairs/Relations, Law, Physics, Political Science, Psychology, Public
Affairs, Public Diplomacy, Social Work. More information should be
available off of http://www.facebook.com/l/;http://careers.state.gov.
If you wish to be considered for this opportunity, please contact Joanne
Wilson at (410) 659-9314, ext. 2335 or via email at jwilson at nfb.org. You
will need to send Joanne your most recent CV or resume, and a brief (no more
than one-page) statement outlining why you want to participate in this event
by Thursday, July 16. We are only able to select four students; therefore,
we will review your information, and will forward your materials to our
contacts at the Department by July 23. You should hear something from the
Department by late August.
Good luck, and don’t pass up this outstanding opportunity!
