Since President Obama’s call to serve in early 2009, students have shown an increased interest in public service. Coupling this phenomenon with the current state of the private sector, more and more students are looking to Pennsylvania Avenue instead of Wall Street for careers and the security that comes with working in the federal sector. In fact, in a recent poll, 64% of The Washington Center’s student population stated they were interested in the public sector. The Federal Relations Staff of The Washington Center will briefly discuss introducing students to federal service and how advisors can make students competitive candidates. In greater detail, strategies for referring students to federal opportunities will be explored, including special internship and professional development programs. Lastly, participants will be introduced to how to train students on navigating the direct application process.
This presentation was part of the Intern Bridge January 2010 Career Services Online Conference.
