Thank you so much! I'm an American citizen that's been living in China for 8 years, and I just started the long process of applying for embassy jobs.

You are so welcome!
Definitley going to go watch the embassy fellowship video as I get ready to bid for my embassy post 🤗
That's so exciting! You can't go wrong :-)
Your video is so motivational! Thanks a lot for that!
Thank you so much! I am glad you found it motivational :-)
Thank you for sharing 🙏🏽 for all you do. I believe I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me & with supportive diplomats like you
Thank you so much for your comment! I am cheering you on. Amen 🙏🏽
It’s extremely helpful 🎉❤
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for letting me know!!!
Thanks for the info! I’m particularly curious about working for the US embassy in Spain. How do I proceed to get my foot in the door?
Question. Should a federal government formatted resume be used for all jobs at the embassy or just specific ones?
Thank you for this video.
You are so welcome! I hope the video helped. If you have other videos you would like to see, please let me know!
@@heymstraveler I'm fine for now. I was mostly interested in the consular fellow program. I realized that there are very little videos about that. Thank you.
Thank you for all this information, I’m us citizen I want to work with us ambassy us security guard so what’s the best website or way to apply for this position. Thank you
great video! I just wish the audio was better...I hope you've switched microphones for your newer videos! please keep making content!
Thank you so much for your compliment! Yes new videos are coming soon with new mics 😃
What might one need to have a background in or a possible degree in to work at an embassy?
I want to work at a US embassy in Maryland. Do you have any advice?
If i want work as the Accountant in the US embassy u I need to take FSOT test too?
I would like to know what work foreign service officers SPECIFICALLY do. Like on a daily basis, also how to get an internship
Hi Malachi! Thank you for watching! Those are great questions. I made a video about what diplomats do here:
th-cam.com/video/Kx7KFvIJMTw/w-d-xo.html
There is also a book called, "Inside a U.S. Embassy." It goes into more detail.
For internship info, please see:
careers.state.gov/interns-fellows/
Hard to say. Once a foreign service officer does anything other than ignore emails and phone calls, we'll let you know but mostly conferences are the primary responsibility especially if they're catered. Free lunch.
The work of a diplomat is exhausting. Id say they do a whole lot more than “ignore phone calls and emails”. In many cases they are there to support citizens under distress. Its one of those positions where you wont even think about them until you need them. Then youll be thankful.
Hey
Can a veteran get a job at the embassy in the country where they were born before they became American citizens
Hey thanks for making these videos. Your content has been very helpful. I do have a question that you may be able to help me with. I applied to the Foreign Service Consular Fellow program. This requires a level of fluency in a foreign language, one of them being Spanish, which I am a speaker. I am scheduled to take my CFPT test this month but I cannot really find much information about this test or this particular job. I would appreciate any info you may have on this particular career field. Thank you for everything!
Hey Dakota!! I don’t have any info on the Consular Fellows Program in regards to test prep. All I know is the Consular Fellows I’ve worked with have been pretty cool.
What diploma do I need to work in an embassy
I would like to know more about the EFM hiring preference
Does the US Embassy jobs require a federal resume or a will they accept a CV
Can you make a video about U.S diplomat's salaries? Love your videos💕💕

Hello! Thank you for the kind comment! This video is more directed to U.S. embassies. Other countries may have different ways to work at their embassies and consulates. One cool thing is there are job opportunities with US embassies and consulates in different countries for locally employed staff.
I want to work as counsellor at the embassy, or teacher, is it possible

Hello! It depends. Check out embassy’s website or contact HR. Wishing you all the best!
Great Video, that ks for making this kind of content. I recently applied for Consular Associate at my local consulate here in Brazil. Any tips or suggestions for how to land an interview or how to secure an offer would be greatly appreciated
How long is the choosing process do you know...? I've applied and it's been 5 days since the deadline and I'm afraid to apply to other jobs if if might get this job >
Hello! Hope all is well. Not sure. Maybe contact HR or whoever is handling your application. Wishing you the best!

Hi Savanna! I wish you all the best. Internships could be a great way to start. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Wow, your story is similar to mine. I am also from California, and soon moving to Morocco to join/marry my fiancé; I also hope to work at the US embassy/consulte. How is your process going… any luck yet?
@@heymstraveler I will do the same in Tanzania after completing my CPA exams in May

What if I’m not american
It depends. There are local positions
I want work to ambassade Dakar
Are your videos target american viewers or everyone? I think your tips are for americans
Hello! It depends on the video :-)
the person narrating this is very distracting. All of these facial expressions, random smiles and voice modulations... this content is not about you. You don't need to be doing all of this as if you're actively in a conversation with someone. You don't even need to be *in* the video frame. It's actively distracting from the content. I didn't click through to see and watch *you*, so much as I did to learn about working in an embassy. Decided not to watch it through.
i was looking at embassy jobs in thailand..& holy shit the pay was was horrible lol
Thanks for your comment
Details please? How much?
