[jobdevelopercop] U.S. Department of State Career and Student Opportunities for Community College Students/ Grads - Career Webinar May 20 @ 5 pm

[Carrie Portis]

Hi everyone,

Please see information below and attached on some really interesting opportunities with the State Department - they also sound like they pay well and have excellent benefits. Most of these positions will not be local - likely in DC or outside of the US.  I was connected to Micaela Schweitzer-Bluhm who is an internal recruiter with the State Department (thanks to Sharon Turner!) and she would like to work with more colleges in our area to hire community college grads and provide internships.

Micaela is cc:ed on this email and also provides her full contact information below along with details about the positions. Please reach out to her if you would like to know more about these opportunities and develop a connection to her.

Take care,

Carrie
