The Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation will present a free 40-minute webinar on the topic Unlock Your NPS Career: Insider Tips with USAJOBS at 12 p.m., Tues., Aug. 6.
Participants will learn how to unlock career opportunities with the Blue Ridge Parkway and National Park Service. Join Shannon Buckmaster, Blue Ridge Parkway Administrative Specialist, and Dr. Joy James, Recreation Management Professor at Appalachian State University, as they share insider tips on landing a job through USAJOBS.gov, a free web-based job board enabling federal job seekers to access to employment opportunities across hundreds of federal agencies and organizations. It is the Federal Government’s official source for job listings, job applications, and employment opportunity information.
The presentation will highlight the wide range of National Park Service positions and guide participants through the application process. The webinar is an offering of the Foundation’s Blue Ridge Rising initiative to strengthen cross-jurisdictional relationships, foster economic development within the region’s gateway communities, and establish a unified regional voice.
