With the RNC right in our own back yard (literally and figuratively!), I can imagine that it may have some sparked some additional interest in working for or with a government agency.   This semester we anticipate having the State Department at our Professional Job Fair on October 17th (1-3:30 p.m. in Fletcher Lounge), and the CIA and FBI are conducting a workshop/panel discussion on careers in the US Intelligence Community on Wednesday, November 7th (5-5:45 p.m. in Riverside 102).  It’s always beneficial if you can meet someone face to face, so be sure to check HIRE-UT regularly for other opportunities to interact with these and other employers.

Here’s a list of websites that may get you started—it’s by no means exhaustive but will hopefully provide you with a place to start.  Good luck!  (And, of course, we’ll start with the RNC and DNC websites!)
