How to Apply

Application procedures for employment with the U.S. Department of State vary according to the direction in which you take your career. Foreign Service Officers, for example, must pass the Foreign Service Written Exam, which is offered once a year. Students must also meet certain criteria and deadlines for the program they choose to enter.

Further details on how to apply for any of our opportunities - from Foreign Service to Civil Service to Student employment - as well as the qualifications applicants must meet, are located on the left.
