It dependes which country you represent and where.

to do the work you are talking about you need a knowledge of local conditions,however there is a dept that deals with overseas positions, write to the govt affairs dept or get info from the nearest overseas consulate to the area you wish to work in for advice. Failing that of course many churches along with aid and red cross agencies also work in many of these places. I would write one letter just changing the heading for each and hit them al;l together that will save hanging around for weeks after each reply you'll get them all together.

I have worked as a volunteer many times in the past. This has given me some insight into how the government, companies and organizations work. I bring a supportive personality and a Can Do attitude. I also bring in the view point of a part of the market base that is often ignored during marketing campaigns. My knowledge of the likes and dislikes of the "Outcasts" and the "Counter-culture" can be of great benefit if properly used.\n\nI would like to know what your company would bring to me if I was to accept employment, would I be able to satisfy my desire for a challenging and rewarding career that actually makes a difference?

Ok I think they are similar but I will let you study as its late and my mind is going!\nIn modern usage, a consul is a representative of a sovereign state, posted to a foreign territory, in charge of matters related to individual people and businesses, in other words issues outside inter-governmental diplomacy. The office of a consul is known as a consulate.\n\nA permanent diplomatic mission is usually known as an embassy

I am in the same boat. What I have heard is while it helps higher national agencies prefer specialization in other subjects, international relations helps a lot. I have heard they also like it if you are in a cj honor society. It will help you be more likely for higher positions in general police, corrections, etc work. What helps THE most is getting experience, if you are not like me and have the time take an intership, try to go as high as you can. Its very competitive but CIA has a program for students but for the program you have to go there...

An ambassador outranks any civil servant regardless of status...even the prime minister has to address an ambassador as your excellency.

Actually the above answers have slight errors.\n\nFirst the size of the mission has nothing to do with it, but rather the status. \n\nEmbassies are the official representation in the capital, headed by an Ambassador.  High Commissions are simply embassies and diplomatic representation among British commonwealth countries.\n\nConsulates are not headed by an Ambassador and are usually regional "branch offices" of the Embassy within the given country.  \n\nBut any of them could be virtually any size.  For example the U.S. Consulate in Frankfurt, Germany is much larger than the U.S. Embassy in Berlin.

I am the son of a diplomat and there is no such thing as complete diplomatic immunity in the US ... They dont respect that even though they receive immunity themselves in foreign countries ...\n\nppl think diplomats wont get speeding tickets or parking tickets n stuff n wotn b charged for murder ...all this is true but not in the US .... Even at the port of entry there isnt a separate counter for Diplomats which every other country has.\n\nso being a diplomat in US Pros: None\n                          Cons: Higher car insurance.\n                                and all of the above\n\nalso i think in other places the diplomatic immunity is extened to the family as well but not in the US.

Abroad?  Where?  There or here (in the USA)?  \nIf you are "there" and want to work "here", ask the embassy.

Role\n\nThe senior diplomatic officers among members of the Commonwealth of Nations are known as High Commissioners, who are the heads of High Commissions. Representatives of the Holy See are known as Papal or Apostolic Nuncios, while the head of a Libyan People's Bureau is a Secretary.\n\nHistorically, officials representing their countries abroad were termed ministers, but this term was also applied to diplomats of the second rank. The Congress of Vienna of 1815 formalized the system of diplomatic rank under international law:\n\nAmbassadors are ministers of the highest rank, with plenipotentiary authority to represent their head of state. An Ordinary Ambassador is one heading a permanent diplomatic mission, for instance the senior professional diplomat in an embassy. An Extraordinary Ambassador could be appointed for special purposes or for an indefinite term; politically appointed ambassadors would fall under this category.\n\nMoreover, a Resident Ambassador is one who resides within the country to which s/he is accredited. A Non-Resident Ambassador is one who does not reside within the country to which s/he is accredited, but lives in a nearby country. Thus a resident ambassador to a country might at the same time also be a non-resident ambassador to several other countries.\n\nAmong European powers, the ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary (French ambassadeur extraordinaire et plénipotentiaire or German ausserordentlicher und bevollmächtigter Botschafter) was deemed the personal representative of the sovereign, and the custom of dispatching ambassadors to the head of state rather than the government has persisted. For example, ambassadors to and from the United Kingdom are accredited to or from the Royal Court of St. James's, rather than to the State.\n\nBecause members of the Commonwealth of Nations have or had a common head of state, they do not exchange ambassadors, but instead have High Commissioners which represent the government rather than the head of state.\n\nRanking below full ambassador are the rank of envoy, minister resident and chargé d'affaires. They represent their government rather than their head of state. For further details, see diplomatic rank.\n\nWhile the title still reflect the Ambassador's natural vocation to head a diplomatic mission, the rank is often held by carreer diplomats, as a matter of internal promotion, regardless of the posting, and in many naional carreers it is quite common for them to be appointed to other functions, especially within the ministry/ministries in charge of foreign affairs, in some countries in systematical alteration with actual postings.

Does it have to be an Embassy?

In all major countries, the recruitment and hiring of diplomatic staff is done by the ministry of foreign affairs (in the USA: the State Dept.) Hiring is normally by competitive exam, although some mid-level staff are hired laterally, usually from the civil service, sometimes from clerical staff. Clerical and administrative staff may be hired with less rigor than officer staff.\n\nSome ambassadors may be politically appointed, often from big contributors to the winning party.\n\nFor the USA, see the Foreign Service exam system: http://www.careers.state.gov/\n\nThat info relates mainly to economic, political, consular and administrative staff. For the USA and some other countries commercial, agricultural, intelligence, military attaché and other specialized agency staff (including short-term overseas postings of finance, tax, customs, etc. personnel) are made according to rules of the sending agencies. Cultural and foreign aid staff have their own similar hiring and promoting systems. Some countries accept attachés seconded directly from industry and paid from outside government.\n\nFinally, there are local-hire staff (either local nationals, third-country nationals, or citizens of the Embassy's own country who happen to live abroad), interns just out of college, and contractors. Decisions on such personnel are made by the embassy itself in accordance with established rules.

Try the State Department Careers page.  I know there is an examination that has to be taken and the process takes a while - but it will start you on the track of becoming a Foreign Service Officer.  Best wishes, go get'em.

Good grades and application to the State Deparment.  They will have a preference for certain degrees like you mentioned, but grades and background check will probably be more important than the major.\n\nThere are many jobs such as ambassador, consular officers, and numerous administrative positions at each of the embassy, consular offices, etc.
