If you’re interested in local government policy, I would research the Local Government Management Fellowship. It is a career-development opportunity designed to attract recent MPA/MPP graduates and fellows work for a City or County in a management-track local government position. It’s how I got my big break in government.

Thanks so much for this information! I will look into it. I am interested in local, state and federal policies. Thanks again!

Bumping your post because I’ve also been contemplating making a similar switch.

Ok great . I was told Think tanks are the best way to get into Public Policy. Hoping to get into one after graduation.

You still have 10 days left to start volunteering with someone who could get elected and need good people around them to help make policy.

Great idea. Thanks!

Applying to roles within the same federal agency. I know you need one year within the probationary period, but can I apply to a higher GS level? For example, if I'm GS 9, receive a promotion to GS 11 at the end of probation, would i be able to apply to GS 13 roles if I'm qualified? Tried researching this for hours but only found info on applying to other agencies.
