Recent Graduates Program: US Dept. of State

“The Recent Graduates Program (RGP) targets recent graduates of qualifying associates, bachelors, masters, professional, doctorate, vocational or technical degree or certificate from a qualifying educational institution, as well as completion of a Registered Apprenticeship Program.

To be eligible, applicants must apply within two years of degree or certificate completion. Veterans who, due to military service, were unable to apply for positions, will have up to two years from their release or discharge from active duty, not to exceed six years after degree and/or certificate completion. Successful applicants will be placed in a one-year career development program. 

RGP vacancy announcements are posted to USAJobs year-round, on an as-needed basis based on the needs of the Department.  “
