The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of International Affairs (IA) seeks outstanding recent college graduates to help advance IA’s mission to support U.S. economic prosperity by strengthening the external environment for U.S. growth, preventing and mitigating global financial instability, and managing key global challenges.
About the Program:
The Junior Fellowship program is a highly selective, fixed two-year program for new college graduates to work shaping international economic policy for the United States in Treasury’s Office of International Affairs. Throughout the Fellowship, junior fellows perform a variety of tasks that include developing policy proposals and conducting research and analysis on pressing international economic and financial developments. Fellows also support bilateral and multilateral meetings for senior Treasury officials engaging counterparts at the IMF, World Bank, G7, and G20 – to name a few. Junior fellows often participate in such meetings and may have opportunities to travel abroad. The program exposes fellows to multiple policy issues and provides opportunities to enhance their knowledge and skills including in writing, research, oral briefing, and economic policy and statecraft.
Junior fellows will be placed in either a regional or functional office. Regional offices oversee Treasury’s engagement with counterpart finance ministries and treasuries across the world. Functional offices oversee Treasury’s engagement with international financial institutions and structure broader Treasury policy on issues ranging from trade, to export credits, to foreign exchange.
Junior fellows are usually hired at the GS-9 level and receive standard Treasury benefits.
