Jodi and her panel address a popular career goal among RPCVs — becoming a foreign service officer. Many do not realize there are multiple ways to get into the Foreign Service, including some that don't even require the dreaded and difficult Foreign Service Exam. Featured guests for this podcast include RPCVs who have joined the Foreign Service in different capacities and followed distinct pathways. Each guest discusses their unique experiences, answer audience questions, and provide sage advice on the process of pursuing a career in the Foreign Service.
