Is the Forest Service a good fit for you?
Collaboration and connections with communities are at the heart of what we do. So, in addition to the experience and skills described in the previous pages, we’re also looking for people who share a passion for the mission of the Forest Service, enjoy interacting with people from all walks of life, believe that working together with other people can often generate better ideas and solutions than working alone, and are active in their community (e.g., as a volunteer, active in local community organizations, etc).
