Student Trainee Positions Available

Mrs. Georgia McFaul, TCC Counselors’ Office, announced this week that the Civil Service Commission is now accepting applications for student trainee positions in federal agencies in the Dallas region. This region covers Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.

According to Mrs. McFaul, this year’s vacancies will be in the fields of accounting, agricultural engineering, agricultural management, agricultural statistics, civil engineering, engineering, geologist, range conservation, soil conservation, and soil scientist.

Student trainees must be registered college students in appropriate professional fields of study. Those who are hired receive career conditional appointments beginning in the summer of 1976. Following the periods of summer employment, student trainees are expected to attend college on a full-time basis.

When all requirements for the bachelor’s degree are completed, the trainees may be promoted non-competitively to professional positions in the field for which they were trained.

Mrs. McFaul said, “We have been advised that a limited number of vacancies will exist so competition for these positions will be very keen. Also, an applications must be postmarked by Dec. 15, 1975.”

TCC students interested in applying for these positions should call the Counselors’ Office for additional information.
