Too Much to Say

We're disheartened & angry about the callous treatment of tens-of-thousands government employees who are losing their jobs or living under that threat. This intentionally cruel idiocy diminishes us all. DCPA+CJ hopes to increase the volume of opportunities here going forward & maybe quicken the job-search for some of the folks who have been impacted. We could go on for paragraphs, but we'll just get to the jobs instead. Hang in there.

1) Arnold Ventures is seeking an Advocacy Analyst, Criminal Justice with 1-2 years’ relevant experience that shows your ability to absorb, analyze, and convey complex ideas in a clear & concise manner, along with exceptional project management and organizational skills – $80k-$90k [position filled]

2) The Black Rock Group has shared this call for an Account Exec with strong writing skills & familiarity with digital strategy; experience in graphic design, website development, or event planning would be a plus; recent grads encouraged to apply.

3-5) Law & lobbying stalwart Arnold & Porter is actively recruiting for these three posts:

6) Multimedia production company Gingrich 360 is seeking a Writer/Researcher/Internship Coordinator – ideal candidate is a skilled communicator & self-starter who can effectively manage multiple competing deadlines; knowledge of Capitol Hill and the legislative process preferred – Arlington, Va. or Naples, FL

If you’ve also got one year of sales experience, Diplomatic Sales Manager at the DC Waldorf Astoria affiliate of Hilton Hotels might be a good landing spot while you sort things out – $70k-$80k

59) … and finally, part 2: public affairs/communications roles (outside of DoD opportunities) at usajobs.gov have quickly dried up, so this Program Specialist/External Affairs Officer post with DHS/FEMA will probably draw a lot of interest – and you need to hurry, since it’s subject to closure when they get 100 applications in, surely well before the Mar. 7 deadline noted – $120k-$156k
