Manage
the Federal Job Search
To
effectively manage a federal job search,
treat the over 200 federal departments,
agencies, and bureaus as if they are
separate organizations. Instead of
waiting for a job listing to appear,
make it your quest to:
- Learn
which agencies have positions matching
your qualifications and interests.
- Learn
about special federal hiring programs,
e.g., Student Career Experience
Program/Co-op (SCEP), student temp
educational program (STEP), summer
employment, outstanding scholar
(>3.5 GPA), Presidential Management
Interns (PMI) for grad students.
- Expect
a variety of hiring procedures,
sources of job listings, and job
requirements for each agency.
- Learn
effective application techniques.
- Practice
patience, persistence and networking!
