*UPDATE RE: FEDERAL GOVERNMENT-WIDE HIRING FREEZE:
AIR FORCE JAG CORPS – UNPAID SUMMER INTERNSHIP + EXTENSION OF EXTERNSHIP APPLICATION DEADLINE [DEADLINE: FEB. 12, 2017]
Message from the Office of the Judge Advocate General:
Internship update: Due to a federal government-wide hiring freeze the summer paid internship program is currently on hold. Accordingly, there are no guarantees the paid summer internship program will be available for 2017. We will keep everyone updated on the status of the paid program as information becomes available.
The summer unpaid externship application deadline has been extended to Sunday, 12 February 2017. We highly recommend that students apply for the unpaid externship if they are interested in working with the Air Force JAG Corps over the summer.
Students who apply for the externship will also be able to apply for the paid program, if it is approved for summer 2017.
