Peace Corps
The Peace Corps shares a unique relationship with the countries and people our community has worked alongside in pursuit of world peace and friendship for more than 60 years bringing together skilled, committed volunteers with welcoming host communities for service opportunities in more than 60 countries. Volunteers live and work side by side with community members on locally prioritized projects, building relationships, exchanging cultures and knowledge, and helping transform lives.
Come work alongside motivated and engaged employees who are passionate about the Peace Corps' mission of promoting peace and friendship. The Peace Corps provides professional development opportunities, fosters a diverse and inclusive workplace, and supports work-life balance. Be part of a team that supports volunteers and host communities across the globe.
Top Three Reasons to Work for the Peace Corps:
- The Peace Corps has a unique global mission, perhaps the best of any federal agency-to promote peace and friendship.
- Benefits include competitive salaries with annual step increases as opposed to the General Schedule, which has longer waiting periods between step increases.
- Peace Corps employees earn non-competitive eligibility after three years of service. The Cornell Law School's site offers more information about NCE.
