Abstract of proposed collection: The
Department’s student internship
programs provide a key source of
potential candidates who have an
interest in, and are qualified, to become
future Department employees.
The legal authorities pertaining to this
collection include: 22 U.S.C. 2651a., 22
U.S.C. 3901, 5 U.S.C. 3111, and 5 CFR
part 362, subpart B.
HR/REE wants to strengthen and
maintain its connections to this group,
fostering and mentoring a pool of
candidates from which to obtain
successful recruits.
In June 2008, HR/REE surveyed over
3,500 former interns who served from
2005 through spring 2008. The intern
alumni were queried as to their
motivation in seeking an internship,
whether or not they had pursued a
career with either the Foreign Service or
Civil Service, and what their
recommendations would be for the best
ways for the Department to maintain
contact after the conclusion of their

internships. Intern alumni endorse
continued contact with Department
representatives mainly through
electronic means and Web site
reminders of career opportunities.
In an effort to address these findings
and provide viable solutions to
improving student engagement prior to,
during and following an internship, the
Department developed an intern
engagement strategy that will ultimately
result in a measurable conversion of
interns into Department hires for the
Foreign or Civil Service. The foundation
of this strategy is INTERNational
Connections, a web-based career
networking site for current, former and
future interns that collects pertinent
information about them, their
experiences and their career goals.
