Civic Match Q&A: Translating International Experience to State and Local Government
Work for America
Posted on May 14, 2026
You've managed budgets across countries, led teams in complex environments, and coordinated work that spanned continents. But how do you tell that story to a state or local government agency?
Join Civic Match on Wednesday, May 20th, 2:00 - 3:00 PM ET, for a session designed specifically for professionals with international government experience — including former USAID staffers, Foreign Service officers, and international contractors — who are exploring state and local government roles.
We'll cover:
How to turn your international experience into language that resonates locally
Which skills state and local employers are actively looking for
How to right-size your resume for the roles you want
Walk away with a clearer path from your international career to your next chapter in public service.
This event is open to new and existing Civic Match users with recent international government experience.
