Pathways Internship - Federal Government


If you want a job in Federal Government, you should apply for the pathways program. Tons of positions are currently posted on usajobs.gov and you should be checking it every day this week! Here is some advice from an alumnus in D.C.

 It looks like Dept of State will be posting their Pathways Internships soon from Nov. 1-15th, so if  you want a shot at them I would get all your USAJobs resume and such ready to go, and then check USAJobs at midnight EST (which would be 10pm Mountain time) every night for these two weeks.  That way you could make sure your application gets in there under the limit.  Actually, I usually get the notice something like 30 min to an hour after midnight, so you may want to check it at 10pm, 10:30pm, and 11pm each night to make sure they didn't post it late so you don't miss it.  This seems like a hassle (and it is), but this is the way this game is played so you need to be prepared.  I would apply for each and every opening you see.  

As far as the other qualifications are concerned, I can't think of any that you likely haven't thought of.  It's more important to get your application in under the limit for these Pathways Internship programs though, so that should be your first priority.  


Good luck!

The Pathways Internship Program replaces the Student Career Experience Program (SCEP) and Student Temporary Employment Program (STEP). This Program is designed to provide students enrolled in a wide variety of educational institutions, from high school to graduate level, with opportunities to work in agencies and explore Federal careers while still in school and while getting paid for the work performed. Students who successfully complete the program may be eligible for conversion to a permanent job in the civil service. Additional information about the Internship Program can be found at USAJOBS (external link). Here are some key provisions of the Internship Program
