Description
Indeed, diplomacy is a career like no other. It is much more than a job; it is a uniquely demanding and
rewarding way of life. As representatives of the United States to foreign governments, U.S. diplomats
directly impact people’s lives and participate in the making of history. They travel the globe, experiencing
foreign cultures as no tourist can. They work alongside highly talented colleagues, face the unexpected every
day, and find themselves in situations that push their ingenuity and creativity to the limit.Please share your
