U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Internships and Recent Graduate jobs open to the public as part of the Pathways Program

The Internship Program is for Current Students. It provides students in high schools, colleges, trade schools and other qualifying educational institutions with paid opportunities to work in agencies and explore Federal careers while completing their education.

The Recent Graduate Program is intended to promote possible careers in the civil service to individuals who, within the previous two years, graduated from qualifying educational institutions with an associates, bachelors, masters, professional, doctorate, vocational or technical degree or certificate from qualifying educational institutions.

Also, if you have completed an advanced degree (e.g., masters or professional degree) within the past two years, you may have a chance at becomming a Presidential Management Fellow (PMF). The PMF Program seeks to attract the best candidates with the goal of developing them into future Federal Government leaders. Find out more.
