SUMMARY:Federal Government Job Search: Part Two
DESCRIPTION:Part Two – Write a Winning Federal Resume\n\nHave you been using your standard one page resume or multipage CV to apply for Federal jobs? Have you been frustrated by the lack of response to your applications?  Were you aware that the content\, style\, and format of a winning Federal Resume is quite different from what you might use outside of government?   This workshop will teach you tips and tricks that will help your resume stand out to Federal hiring managers. We’ll talk about KSAs\, keywording\, and how to match your skills to the position you seek. \nThis workshop is best suited to those who attended Part One\, or who already have some familiarity with Federal hiring in general\, as we will only briefly review the basic find and apply concepts. \nNo RSVP is required for this event.

SUMMARY:Federal Government Job Search: Part One
DESCRIPTION:Part One – Find and Apply for Internships and Jobs in Federal Agencies\n  \nHave you always thought it would be cool to work in the field of intelligence\, helping to ferret out and stop terrorists before they strike?  Or perhaps you’ve been secretly harboring a desire to serve as a Naval\, Marine\, Air Force or Army Officer? Or maybe you dream of working in intentional diplomacy? Perhaps you’d like to work for the Federal Reserve Banks\, or prosecute financial crimes\, or manage government real estate?  If a desk job doesn’t suit you\, you could work outdoors in a national park or monument or perform field research into environmental threats?  Or maybe you could see yourself working to keep America’s food supply or offices and work-sites safe and disease free?  If education is more your thing but you dream of living abroad\, maybe you’d like a career teaching the children of our service men and women on military bases all over the world?  All of these opportunities (and more) are available with the Federal Government.  The problem is that most students are stymied by what is often a very lengthy and confusing application process. Whether you are only slightly familiar with federal agency opportunities\, or you have just begun to think about them and know absolutely nothing yet:  THIS is the workshop you need to attend.  Students will gain an understanding of USAJobs\, Federal Pathways opportunities for both interns and recent grads\, the different types of Federal hiring\, and much\, much more!
