"This is basically a student intern position. However, at the time my university had enacted a hiring freeze, prompting my supervisor to hire me as a government contract employee for one year instead. My contract allowed for renewal up to 1 more year. Overall, I enjoy working for this group. I have the freedom to do things as I see fit, as what we are doing hasn't really been done before. I learn what I need as I go. I would recommend this job to other college students looking for experience."

"I have worked for USDA for several years and have enjoyed my time there. My relationships with my supervisor and coworkers were great. I have worked in the state office as well as headquarters. Working at headquarters, you would think, the offices would look better but they have not meet the standards I have seen of other other government agencies. I only wish that I had better equipment to use in order to properly do my job. The laptops and software we were allowed to use, limited my productivity."

"2014 is a tough time to work for the Federal Government. Funding is tight and morale is low. Much of that will cycle, along with Washington politics."

"Good for independent contractors looking for a flexible time schedule."
