EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIESStudent Volunteer Service (Internships)The Student Intern Program provides unpaid academic study-related work assignments that allow students to explore career options in addition to developing personal and professional skills. Working in Washington, D.C., or in various field offices located throughout the United States, can prepare students for a career with the United States Secret Service. The program offers many advantages, including career exploration early in a student's academic studies, exposure to new and emerging occupations/technologies, academic credit for the work performed (this is determined by the academic institution), and work experience that may be considered relevant if the student later applies for permanent employment. The program, however, is not intended to provide the intern with investigative or protective experience. Steps to Becoming an InternRequirements and QualificationsTo be considered you must:
Top Secret ClearanceApplicants must be able to obtain a Top Secret clearance. Applicants must pass a pre-employment drug screening and extensive background investigation.
