U. S. Embassy Summer Jobs
Spend a summer working in a U.S. Embassy in one of 90 locations
throughout the world! The USDA Foreign Agricultural Service's International
Internship Program is a PAID internship program and is in need of
applicants! As of this week, the program has only received 3 applications
nationwide!

DUE TO THIS LOW NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS THE DEADLINE HAS BEEN
EXTENDED TO MARCH 15TH!

The Foreign Agricultural Service's International Internship Program
provides college students the opportunity to live and work in a paid
internship at an American Embassy overseas. Through work assignments
participants learn various aspects of international trade, trade policy,
international relations, diplomacy, regional and cultural considerations,
etc. Positions are available in Western Europe, Latin America, and Asia.
The internship is offered every semester and summer for graduate students
and upperclassmen (juniors and seniors). Requirements: Be a currently
enrolled graduate or undergraduate student (must be a junior or a senior), a
U.S.citizen and in good academic standing. Graduate level students in
business, international relations, regional studies (i.e. Latin American
Studies, Asian Studies, etc), public policy, foreign languages, etc., as
well as high-achieving junior and senior undergraduates in similar majors
are particularly encouraged to apply, though the program is open to all
majors. Please see the application at this website:
http://www.fas.usda.gov/admin/student /summerintern.htm
This internship program is a great way to get international experience and
expose yourself to career fields you may never have considered. Please do
not let any part of the application intimidate you! If you need help, that's
my job to help you. It is completely doable! Also, the application states
that you must pay for your own transportation to your job site. If that is a
financial problem, still apply and we'll see how we can find you financial
assistance. Again, if you have any questions or you decide to apply PLEASE
LET ME KNOW! And please pass this email on to any other students or
listserves. Thank you! Lillian Gorman Program Analyst USDA Hispanic Serving
