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!)
