USFS Pathways Opportunities


The Forest Service will publish Vacancy Announcements for Pathways opportunities (what was previously the SCEP/STEP student employment/internships programs) in USAJobs from 2/25 to 3/1.   These opportunities will be open only for five days and there will be a separate announcement for each professional series.  There will be one announcement per series for all 700+ potential locations.  Please encourage students to open an account in usajobs and upload a resume.  Once the vacancies are available in USAJobs, students should apply for each professional area they would like to pursue.  In each application, students should indicate which geographic area they are available to work.  One important note is that not all geographic areas will hire for all professional series.  If students are willing to move for an internship (at their cost) they should apply to anywhere that they would be willing to go.  There is no limit to the number of locations that they can list for each internship, provided that they are genuinely interested in working there and they recognize that they will not be compensated for travel expenses to the internship location.  If you have questions regarding Pathways internships, please do not hesitate to contact me.  Also, feel free to disseminate the attached fact sheet for applicants widely.
